11 October, 2008 It is already October! A year has come and gone, and Clara has grown quite a bit. She started first grade and she is now practicing her cursive writing. She sang The Star Spangled Banner at the Shiloh Hill's Homecoming game this year. She will also be performing at the school's Christmas Musical. She still takes ballet and tap lessons, and she also plays soccer each Spring. This year her new adventure is Cheerleading, which she starts in November. We are preparing for our Disney World vacation, which Clara is very excited about.

Halloween is coming and Clara has decided that she is going to dress up as Belle this year. In preparation for Halloween, we once again visited Cagle's Dairy farm to participate in the corn maze and other seasonal activities including horseback riding!
