Tom and I took a load to the dump today and as we arrived at the dump the clouds parted and the sun came out.  It was a welcome sight from all the rain.

It was a little rainy today at Hannah’s soccer game.  Apparently the rain is good luck for our little soccer star…she scored 3 goals.

My only picture for today came from Jen.  She sent this picture wondering if Hannah could guess what the story of the week was in her class.  I’m embarrassed to say that we didn’t know.  We haven’t read Elmer the Elephant.  Looks like we might need to. Cute!

We got Emmie a new pair of boots the other day and they came with this cute box.  Emmie told Hannah she could use the box.  Hannah thought it was the perfect box for her home reading books.  I thought so too!  :)

These two movies are what we’re watching, what seems like ALL THE TIME.  When we’re not watching Emmie’s favorite Beauty and the Beast, we’re watching Camp Rock 2 and if we’re not watching that then you can usually find us rocking out to the Camp Rock 2 CD.  You know it’s bad when Tom knows the songs word for word and when Emmie can sing half a song.  :)

Emerson loves her “appie shider”.    We are so thankful that we can buy the big boxes of it at Costco.  We’ve  decided that we’ll pick up a box every time we go, so that when they stop selling it in Spring and Sumer we won’t be out of “appie shider”. :)

We went to Costco today.  Emerson doesn’t like shopping with us so we are very thankful for my parents house being so close to Costco.  We just drop Emmie off  and shop in relative peace.  Hannah decided that tonight she wanted to join us.  I have a feeling she thought she’d get something out of it, but not this time.

Half way through the trip she decided that she wanted me to take her picture and send it to Aunt Jen.  Apparently she’s missing her Auntie Jen as much as I am.

Hannah’s friend Mimi, I mean Amelia (she told me that THIS year she is going by Amelia, not Mimi  :) ) had her birthday party at Ben Franklin in Monroe.  What a great place to have a birthday party.  Kids can do their crafts upstairs while the Mommies shop downstairs.  Brilliant! 

They made mini scrapbooks.  Hannah’s very first scrapbook.  Melt my heart!

Hannah’s preschool teacher, Ms. Shellee, came to Hannah’s soccer game today.  Holy cow, Hannah was one excited girl to see her.  Hannah LOVES Ms. Shellee!  I had to laugh because every time she did something good on the field she would quick look over and see if Ms. Shellee was watching.  Go Hannah!

I went to a Girl Scout meeting last night.  Hannah wants to do Girl Scouts.  Well, she decided wanted to do GS’s when she  heard that she would get to do crafts.  :)  I’ll be filling out her paperwork today and calling to request my co-leader paperwork.  Yes, I said co-leader.  Kira, Mimi’s mom, talked me into it.  We shall see.

As we were driving to my chiropractor appointment, we passed this gentleman mowing his yard.  Tom and I both completely lost it when we realized that he had tied a garbage bag around each leg to protect his shoes and pants.  Garbage bags as boots – we give him an A for effort and creativity.  :)

I can’t even believe that I took a picture of a spider web, let alone two of them but I had to.  Our yard has been completely taken over by these creepy creatures.  The only thing I like about them is the fact that they make beautiful webs.  I am absolutely fascinated with them.

I had to work tonight.  I told the girls to pretend that I was in Redmond and that I wasn’t there.  I laughed when it was time to eat dinner…Tom had prepared my dinner and even included a note.  :)  I love him!

September 27, 2010

The cereal of choice these days at the Walker house.  I prefer the Honey Chex, Emmie the Kix and Tom the Crunch Berries…Hannah likes them all…mixed together.  I have a problem with that.  I just don’t think that cereals should me mixed. Ever.  ;)

We were invited to a BBQ at the Farm in Snohomish.  We had so much fun with all the fall activities they offer.  We managed to make it through the  corn maze with all these kids, no injuries, just a few falls and most importantly no tears!

Caitlin threw a small surprise party for her Mom tonight and surprised she was!  Happy Birthday Snoozie!  We love you.

The Hillcrest Fun Run was today.  Hannah impressed us all by running around the track 7 times!  She ran, ran, ran!  :)

September 23, 2010

We got a “new to us” couch today.  Rob’s mom got married and had an extra couch at her house.  Rob & Beck had a feeling that we might be interested in it.  Boy was that an understatement!  We gladly offered to take it off her hands.  No more gross “white” Ikea couch for us!  Woot Woot!

Story time.  I love that Hannah loves to read…Emerson loves it too!

The neighborhood gang.  Don’t they look dangerous?!
