First Day of School



Last week Luke started kindergarten! He wears his new uniform clothes everyday and has an amazing Captain America Backpack. The first picture is of him reuniting with some of his preschool buds in his new school's playground. He is lucky to have lots of familiar faces at his new big school. His new teacher is super kind and warm and Luke is very excited to be a kindergarten student.

The Fair and Our Own Little Harvest


Yesterday we went to the Washington State Fair in Puyallap. It was a perfectly warm day and the fair was wonderful. We saw TONS of animals, interesting folks, and kids Luke's age ride sheep for sport (he of course wants to try this next time). We ate corn dogs, ribs and elephant ears and to top it off Luke went on the big Ferris Wheel for the first time! Needless to say it was a big day and we all loved it.

The other pictures are from our mini-harvest at our house. Our first attempt at dahlias was a total success and we have been enjoying food from the garden ever since we got back.



SUNNY SEATTLE!!!

Sorry for the lack of posts over the past few months. We had a huge month after the wedding and were very happy to return home in mid-August. The weather all through July was apparently pretty yucky but luckily since we arrived home we have had nothing but picture perfect summer weather!!!

Here are some pictures from our late-summer adventures. Luke with his best bud Eli and then some "beach" (yes Florida folks, this is what our beaches look like:)) pictures from our adventures at Saint Edward state park and Rattle Snake Lake.

We are trying our best to soak up all of this amazing sunny weather before the Indian Summer ends and the Northwest fall sets in. Love from our clan and we hope everyone is doing well!
