she speaks for the trees

Ever since Grandma read Nora The Lorax, her favorite spot on our walk around the block has become this stump. She stands up there and dramatically announces that she is the Lorax. I think we need to read the book again so that she can expand the game.

the castle keep

Nora loves the giant wood blocks at Grandma’am and Grandsir’s. Here’s Blake building a castle around her in an accommodating fashion.

Hogle Zoo

This is Nora’s favorite shirt to wear to the zoo. She likes to match the zebras.

T-ball

Jillian and Rylee came over for a splash in the wading pool and a little backyard T-ball. Luckily, Jillian didn’t post the photo capturing the moment when Nora accidentally whacked Rylee in the face with the bat, so I can just continue pretending it never happened. (Sorry, Rylee!)

When Blake saw that last photo on Facebook, he said, “We need to save this somewhere, so when Nora gets married it can be on display somehow.” Done.
