Preschool visit to the Pumpkin Patch...

This week was the letter "P" at preschool - so we visited the Pumpkin Patch.
We rode on the wagons:


The kids tried to give Paul a ride on the wagon...it was a little harder that way :)

We found the biggest pumpkin in the patch...

And Jaron stepped in a rotten pumpkin - he was not a fan

And tried to find the smallest pumpkin in the patch. The kids had to put them in size order from smallest to biggest - they did a great job.

Wenatchee Adventures...

We went to visit our friends the Sorensens who have recently moved to Wenatchee WA (about 2.5 hrs North East of our house). We went down to the farmers market, and then visited a really cool old timey soda shop called "The Owl". The kids all got ice cream sundae's and Paul shared his shake with Jaron

After we were all sugared up we went on a walk over a bridge to the Columbia River where the park had a collection of interesting art.

The kids were mostly excited about the giant acorns we found. Jack had an entire pocket full to bring back to our squirrels that live in our yard. Wish I had taken a picture, but I got a purse full of acorns instead :)

While we were at the park, Ben and Mauvia noticed a little train station. The volunteers that ran the train were just killing time between birthday parties - so they took us for a ride free of charge. It was really fun and a great experience for the kids.

Train conductor - didn't catch his name so we called him "Bob"

Oh - the big news - I met my new boyfriend at the soda shop...

Paul didn't like that much (ha ha)

So - I let Greysen move in on my turf...Grey is cuter anyway :)

The Arm is repaired!!!

Kenzie's arm is all better. If you look at the X-ray you can actually see where the break is repaired. The body is so cool! Any bets on how long it will be before our next break, or stitches, or ER visit or....

I also got to go to Phoenix again. It was 105 - 109 degrees while I was there. It was too hot to really enjoy the baby blue Mustang convertible I was given as a rental car - although I did go for a drive. Here is a picture of the sunset one night - totally beautiful.

I took this picture on the plane ride home. It was great to be home.
