Overheard while Ella was drawing

These are Octopus Fish...
(draw)
...they look like octopuses, but they're really fish
(draw, draw, draw)
...they have lots of arms
(draw)
...and lots of eyes
(draw, draw)
...and this one takes ballet
(draw)
...but this one does tap.

Nothing says Independence Day like sparklers

Fun + Sparklers + Grilling + Friends = a lovely holiday.

Here are the girls experiencing the awe that is Legal Fireworks.  The rockets' red glare just doesn't compare to sparklers.









Happy Independence Day, y'all!
