Friday was the first spirit day at school – Crazy Hair Day. The girls always enjoy deciding what to do with their hair, and then of course going to school to see eveyone else’s hair as well. There were some really creative do’s at the bus stop!
Last week, I went with Ashley’s class to the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery. I had been there last year with Molly’s class, but this was a much different experience. It was sunny and there were a TON of salmon to see!
Waiting for our tour to begin
Taking notes on what they observed
So many salmon!!
Last week was a crazy week for Tom…hours like that of when he was in a restaurant. So since his birthday was on a Friday, the last work day of a crazy week, we decided to celebrate on Saturday.
We had a relaxing day around the house and used his birthday presents to do some things in the kitchen. He asked for an Imursion Circulator and a meat slicer. 🙂
It seems like summer just flew by, and here we are at the start of another school year. This is a HUGE year of transition for our school district. Molly and Ashley are at the same school, but the old shool has been demolished and they are in a beautiful new facility! Sage’s middle school is now 6-8 and is now located at the old High School (which is pretty amazing).
The first few days went pretty well, and this week we are adding in AWANA, Youth Group and piano (and probably some homework). Oh…and training for a new restaurant opening for Tom! Ready or not… (more…)
Soooooo…I got a little behind on blogging this summer. I have the photos sorted and ready to go, but I decided to just post the end of the summer video we just showed the girls tonight. (Technically, tomorrow is the last day of summer vacation, but we have things to do at the girls’ schools tomorrow in both the morning and evening.)
It’s been a very fun summer!! (more…)
After the last day of school’s ice cream party and a little time playing with friends, we headed up to Seattle, picked up Tom from work, and headed to Whidbey Island for the weekend. We ended up driving up to Deception Pass and going across that way as the wait for the ferry was really, really long!!
We stayed at a cottage I found on Air Bnb. The area and view were beautiful.
