Autumn Party 2009

For this year's Autumn Party, Lydia dressed up as a princess, while Jackson was a chubby, little lion cub. Since it was past his bedtime, Jackson was a cranky lion cub, but Lydia the Princess had a wonderful time playing games and winning prizes & candy.
Also, in honor of Nevada Day (which also fell on Halloween weekend), all of Lydia's preschool dressed up as cowboys & cowgirls. Since we have NO cowboy stuff, we pulled some things together & transformed Lydia into a hippie-type cowgirl.

Doing laundry together

I asked Lydia to put her laundry in the washing machine, while I cleaned up the apartment. After a little while, I looked over and saw Lydia handing clothes to Jackson, and he was putting them in the washer. What a great team effort!
