Pumpkin Run 2006
This past weekend, Kelly, Tatum, & I participated in the LeBonheur Children's Medical Center 5k with Team Rehab. What I thought would be a nice walk with my coworkers ended up turning into a great run with Tatum running 2 miles and Kelly running the entire race! The girls looked great in their cat costumes, and we are looking for more races to run later this fall.

Honors Ceremony
Kelly had a great 1st 6 weeks and was rewarded with Honor Roll and Good Citizenship Certificates. Tatum was awarded the Exceptional Effort Certificate. Kelly is a 2nd grader and is involved in drama, art, and piano. Tatum is in kindergarten and participates in the CLUE (gifted classroom) and Tae Kwon Do.


Courtyard Fun The girls enjoying part of their backyard. Enough sidewalk for biking and scootering. Jump roping and snail hunting (Tatum displays her snail farm in the cup).

A Fairy Tale Day In August the girls and friend, Erika, attended Disney's musical production of Beauty & the Beast at the Orpheum. As a surprise, the Cinderella carriage was waiting out front of the theatre to carry the girls to an early dinner. The girls had fun waving to the crowd!

New Downtown Friends Kelly & Tatum love to walk by the Peabody Hotel. Sometimes we stop in and visit the famous Peabody Ducks, but the girls really love to visit with the horse and carriage drivers out front.
SUMMER MOVE
Team Beautiful moved downtown this summer. Pictured here is Heather's new ride to work (Kelly & Tatum's elementary school is in the background). We are having a lot of fun exploring our new neighborhood--walking everywhere!
