A little while ago MSU celebrated homecoming and as part of the festivities we went to the homecoming parade. Kate and Drew were very excited about the parade, although it's hard to tell from Kate's expression in this picture! Just like Drew, she's quite the observer and loves to sit and take things in.
Drew was very excited about the parade. His favorite part? The bands! Who would have thought that the son of two total non-musicians would find the bands fascinating? I will admit though, that the MSU marching band was quite impressive as they stomped past us doing their Spartan yells and playing the fight song.
All attention was on the first fire engine that came by. It was quite cool outside, so both Drew and Kate had on their MSU knit hats. They were nice and warm!
Here is a group shot of the Aupperlees at the parade. Todd came up to join us for homecoming and on Saturday Todd and I went to the homecoming football game.
Kate loves to ham it up for the camera. Usually she does a silly smile and says, "Cheese! Cheese!"
We recently celebrated Grandpa Bill's birthday and my birthday. Drew was a big help in blowing out the candles on the cake.
Kate was a big help in eating the Kate. She loved it! 
One night Kate was incredibly tired and cried through most of her nighttime routine. Eventually, I set her down on the couch and gave her a cup. After helping Drew, I turned around and found that Kate had pulled a blanket up on herself and was sitting there forlornly drinking her cup. She was such a tired, but sweet little girl!
Drew got a new firefighter outfit for halloween and Kate immediately claimed Drew's old outfit. As you can see in this picture, Kate looks up to Drew and loves doing whatever he does.
Our latest child to be enamored with the firefighting profession!
Kate's making good use of her toy cell phone in this picture below. Kate has a wonderful temperament and she is so much fun to parent! This picture captures some of the joy she seems to have quite often (and that she shares with us).
Here's another shot of our two firefighters in full outfits. They have lots of fun running around the house putting out pretend fires.
