An Afternoon Visit with Auntie Tara

Today after school my sister, Tara came for a quick visit. The kids bombarded her with the need for attention the minute she arrived. Andrew wanted to show her the things that he can do and Eva wanted to talk about her Halloween costume. Eva wants to be a Dragon Queen. She wants to be that because she has a small wrist dragon that she got at King Richard’s Faire.

The kids then decided that they wanted to rake leaves. I got them some rakes and a broom and a bag. They picked up one bag worth of leaves with auntie Tara. I don’t think that Tara was expecting to be put to work by the kids when she came over but they had a fun time. Andrew was adorable in giant gloves trying to pick up leaves. Then the three of them sat on the back porch stairs and I grabbed my camera to capture a photo of them. Andrew gave his most recent signature look when he turned around.
