September 2010
Right before school started we had a big birthday surprise for Addie. We surprised her with an early birthday present. We gave her the American Girl Kit doll with matching Birthday dresses. Along with it came a trip to Chicago the next day. We took the train into the city and went to the AG store and the Hancock tower. And of course she wanted a deep dish pizza for her birthday! After that she was ready to leave the city so she could go home and play with her new goodies. :)
School started (and has stayed) well. Addie really likes her teacher and her classmates. This year they broke the 2nd grade into three classes of 18 kids each. It is so nice having the smaller classes again.
At the end of September Margaret stayed at the farm and helped with harvest while Addie, Michael and I went to Arkansas for a long weekend. We went to the Brothers and Sisters of Charity's National Gathering. It was a great weekend that we all enjoyed. Michael has already marked off his vacation time for next year.
