Emily's Field Trip to Herriman Cove Pond

October 15, 2008

Emily has the most amazing teacher this year! Her name is Mrs. Ostler. She actually grew up just a few houses down from Joe and they were neighborhood friends.... Her husband was a friend of Andy's in highschool. And Even Crazier... Her best friend growing up married my cousin Emily Groo. So She hangs out regularly with my cousin. I know that is very wordy... but! I just it isnt every day when you can come full circle with what a small world it is!

Anyway.... back to the field trip! We walked from the school up to the Herriman Cove pond. When we got there they had different stations set up. They did a sketch of the pond. A nature walk with binoculars. And they also got to fish in the pond. Emily was beyond THRILLED to catch such a big fish! We had a sack lunch and then walked back to the school. The kids were pretty tired once we got back to the class room they all put their heads on their desks and took a rest.
It was a really fun field trip.

I Love My Boy!

October 6, 2008

Spencer is such a fun boy! He has so many cute facial expressions and has so many ideas! He is always talking and thinking up things and asking question after question. He absolutely loves Myah. If he is not busy doing something he has that cat in his lap! She spends a lot of time running from him but I think she loves him too. He is doing so well in preschool. Tells me what he did and what he learned and all kinds of stories about his friends. His favorite friend at school is William. He says his name so fast it comes out Wilaam. He is still a little tiny kid with knobby knees. But has the energy and full of life of grown up! Cant wait to see what he ends up being when he grows up! AND.... Do you think when he gets big he is going to kill me for posting pictures of him in the tub?????

Shelves at Steph's House

October 4, 2008

I have the best husband on the planet! We spent the day at Steph's house, he built them storage shelves in their basement and Steph and I got the playroom organized. It was a fast and furious 24 hours, the results are so satisfying!!! So nice to have a place to be able to store things and have a nice playroom for the kids to play in!
Also get a load of her giant cat!!! Gotta love Simon!
Love you Stephie!

Oakley Company Party

September 27, 2008

Kenny's company sure does know how to throw a good party! The food was excellent. They had the most amazing face painters there. It wasnt just run of the mill...any old fair or clown party face painting. Each one was a real work of art. I had such a nice time catching up with Mary Jane and a few other wives that I dont get to talk to that often. Everyone went home happy from this party :)
