fall, tea partys, school starts, harvest full swing

Sarah loves to bat her eyes and beg "Taylor please let's have a tea party". Tea party's are not often in our house because most of the time Sarah wants to be "Darth Vader" yikes! Her choices are more a testament to the fact that she wants to play with her brother. Every once in awhile she get an itch for the girly things in life and Taylor doesn't mind being apart of it at all in fact he realy enjoys the cookies and tea. They drink kids tea that Sarahs Chinese "Aunt Kelly" brought her. When I have tea in the mornings she asks for her tea too.





Here is a picture from their first day of school. They were so excited. They checked their bags and their hair to make sure everything was just right. We started them in different school (same as last year). A couple of weeks into school they asked to go to the same school. We figured they didn't know what they were asking for but Thad and I prayed and weighed the pros and cons again and made the switch. They are in the same classroom! Sarah in K4 3 days a week and Taylor in Kindergarten 5 days a week. We've made it through 2 weeks and so far so good. The class is good for Sarah in that she knows alot of the kids and they can understand her.


She is shuch a goof ball. Sarah will be having surgery later this month. It's going to be a bigger surgery this time and a couple of days in the hospital. She is a trooper and I'm sure she will be back to her goofy self in no time. We told her that we will go to Chuckie Cheese resturant when she gets out.




Taylor was climbing the walls so we headed out to the fish hatchery. It was the first day that we have had as a family for weeks so it was nice to do something fun. The kids enjoyed identifying different types of salmon and feeding the trout and ducks. The salmon are spawning so we got to watch them in huge numbers make it up the creek by the hatchery. Sarah counted the dead ones and Taylor counted the live ones, what fun they had. they enjoyed "talking" to Herman the 70yr old steargon. What a great day.
Fish hatcheries are great places to take family pictures. The grounds are beautifull and full of flowers this time of year.
