September

I am LOVING school being in session! The kids are So much happier with more structure in their day. It has been so nice to focus on the little girls again. Here is Derek with his Lego Harry Potter set that he made. It included Dumbledore's flying office. He is hoping to win a Lego magazine contest with it. Derek read all the books last spring, and really likes Harry Potter and now knows way too many facts about them.

The first day of school! We were all excited. So far, the kids like their teachers and all is going well. It is nice to have them out of the house from 8-2:45. It is so much quieter-and cleaner.

Today was Lindsey's first day of preschool. She is doing Joy School with 5 other kids. I will teach 12 days during the year at my house.

Spencer had his friend birthday party Labor day weekend. They took turns driving the boat and going in the tube. He loved it!

The kids are also doing soccer on Tues/Thursday. Larry is coaching Lindsey's team. Larry is also helping out with Waterpolo for the high school. That is usually twice a week as well. He's a busy man!

I finished canning my pears last week-26 quarts and hope to finish my apple pie filling in the next day or so!
I did a post on August too, so check that out!
