Just plan on pictures not being in order from this post on :)
MM working on her name. Mom is trying to figure out this left-handed business.
MM loves to do her "homework."
Grain cart Barbies
Clara had a combine date with Papa and got to do some driving.
She was with Papa when the last ear of corn was combined for the year!
Ellsy and Clara are big into blowing bubbles right now. And they want you to see...every. single. one. 😜
Dayton caught us in his semi selling candy bars. The girls had such success last year that they wanted to do it again. Making money to buy all those toys they want is a top priority for them!
Soccer season is officially over. This was after three games in one day. They all were tired!
Hauling corn with dad. Sidenote: It was short jaunts if you noticed that the two girls were sharing a seat...perks of being skinny :)
Attempting a grain cart nap...
2020 harvest is done!
This was the ride home after attempting to nap in the grain cart.
Harvest assistants.
Uncle Troy got Clara a whole gob of craft supplies for her birthday.
The girls have been crafting every chance they get.
Exploring the timber at our property
Clara reading a book while laying with her sister Maryn
She is a great big sis!
Remember I mentioned these weren't going to be in order? :)
Here are some pics from Clara's actual birthday.
Nana Sue (and Papa Eddie) know what they like...dolls and accessories!
Headed off to school as an 8 year old!
Clara wrote this at school. I love how she depicted in picture her Uncle Tanner's wedding.
Clara had an "art" party with friends to celebrate her birthday.
Playing at the playground right after school.
They needed to get all their screams out! 🤯
The art of decorating a cupcake!
Some more of birthday morning! MM loves to celebrate!
Clara chose biscuits and gravy for her choice of breakfast.
Ellsy spent her own money to buy Clara a "fingerling." They are popular toys on the bus. Ellsy also bought herself one too so she could play with Clara and friends.
Mom and Dad got Clara a bunk bed for her dolls. It was something on her list that she really wanted.
GG Lou never forgets a birthday.
Opening up birthday presents at Granny and Papa's
MM enjoyed a bagel smothered in cream cheese.
MM trying to stay warm at soccer practice.

Clara got a Downtown Coffee gift card for her birthday and knew right away who she wanted to enjoy it with. Her and dad had a coffee date before school and before harvest started for the day.
Sometimes these creatures appear in my house and scare me.
And more party pics...

Seeing her (and her sisters) so happy and giddy is my favorite.
