Us Lately

As you might have seen, Sam has been to the apple farm with his preschool class. If you didn't already know that, you'll see more pictures from that day on my big flub up posts from earlier this week when I thought I knew what I was doing...

Here is the famous tiger bike right before its retirement this past weekend. Sam didn't need the training wheels for the past two years, but we couldn't convince him of that. He is begging to have the training wheels put onto his new bike so it doesn't fall over when he parks it. Why don't these little kid bikes come with kick stands? That's my question.

Caroline had her school's Fall Festival last Saturday and came home looking like this. On purpose. After waiting in a line for 45 minutes to get this tiger face.

This is it after one night's sleeping on it.

She enjoys a rainbow of barrettes.

She also went to the school's Wacky Hospital and got her arm cut up in a "car wreck." Sam wanted to do this, but kinda freaked out once he got in. There was blood everywhere. Fake blood but still... This was a very tame injury compared to most of the kids'.

Here's Grant doing his bike thing. Mr. Safety always wears his helmet. Good kid!


Jack's City Museum field trip was last Friday. I chaperoned.

These kids should have had on helmets at that place.

But it is so fun! Dangerous but fun!

The latest with Gary:
