My kids were out in it at 6:45 a.m.

The farm was great. It was my first, and probably last, year doing the corn maze. We have decided the kids can manage it just fine alone and next year we are going to sit out in front with coffee in hand while the kids do all the running! (Click the pics for bigger photos!)

Today the kids got to dress up for school… big fun!

Halloween is approaching quickly and we are ready with our jack-o-lanterns!

If you live in Oregon you get used to soccer in the rain.

It was the first day of school today… all went well. The time just flies!

Did you notice I goofed on my email yesterday? I sent it out at 11:30PM instead of 11:30AM… OOPS! Guess I’m still a little bit in vacation mode…

Every year we drive by this little pool in Medford that you can see from the freeway. I always think that we should stop and check it out but often we are too tired or just starting our trip so we don’t stop. Finally this year I decided that we needed to check it out. Apparently it is bumper boats where you try to ram each other and spray each other with water. At 10a.m. it wasn’t very crowded but my girls thought that it was a nice break from sitting in the car.

The birthday fun continues on… today is her real birthday… How fast they grow.

Just chillin’ at the pool with my girlies. I’ve been getting up early to make beads before it gets too hot and before my kids get too squirrely! A bonus to my blog upgrade is that I can now upload photos and updates directly to my site via my phone… So I’m typing right now at the pool… This could be dangerous! I’ll have new beads tomorrow so check back.
