Fairyland

The day before Little B's second birthday, we joined our best friends at Children's Fairyland for an awesome day and sort-of birthday celebration.

My beautiful almost 2-year-old!

She has a wonderful flair for the dramatic.

Just me, or does this merry-go-round seat look a little like a torture device?

Best part of the day.  A hill with artificial grass and cardboard boxes for sliding.  Does this place know kids well or what?

Bliss.

Fun Run

E's school did a special Fun Run to raise much-needed money for the school district.  It was DARLING!!  

The princpal carrying in the torch!

The 5th graders giving the new Kindergartners special leis.  

Little B hanging out.

And they're off!

Way to run, kiddo!

Beach Day!

So mid-September, we decided that since we do live only an hour from the beach, we should probably go.  At least once.

Oh Little B.  Even at the beach you find someone elses shoes.  She tried to steal some from the family sitting near us, but we managed to distract her with Daddy's flip flops.

Pumpkin!!!!!!

WE GREW THIS!!!!

Little Ballerinas

First day of School

My beautiful Kindergartner!

And she wanted to take one too.

It will be a great year!

Last Days of Summer

The Saturday before school started, we made our way to the park for a picnic and one last Summer night bike ride (though really, it was freezing cold, so it sure didn't feel like summer!).
