 September...camping trips, back to school, making new friends

1st Grade. First day of school for Alexis. She wants to be a singer and loves raspberries

First bus ride

Picture of Alexis on the left.  Her teacher does such an amazing job posting pictures and letting us know what she is learning

Made it through the first day

Alexis started school on a Wednesday and Cole didn't start school until the following week.  We did get to meet his teacher and see his classroom.  He loves the trampoline. 

Picking our first and only apple from our new apple tree

We all shared the apple...so yummy

We had three days alone while Alexis was at school. So we picked blackberries on our beach

Picked some apples from our neighbors

Camping trip.  Just love pictures of the kids sleeping

We met another family and became fast friends.  Night time hike in the dark.  So fun

Danielle joined us.  The playground was across from our RV spot.  Several times a day we all met there with the kids

Alexis and her new friend Mabre

Letting Danielle brush her hair

Watching the waves...they almost got hit with water

Cole's first day of school.  He is in the green shirt on the far side of the picture

Allen painted our exterior doors. We used old art work of the kids to protect the windows

Close up of her..so beautiful 

Our garden

Playing with his new toy...a talking microscope 

Cole made it three days at school and was exposed to COVID:( So we homeschooled for a week.  He was fine.  But how cute is his elephant hat?

View from our ferry ride for our last camping trip.  Just beautiful 

I was interrupting her reading..she looks she is 16, not 6

Took the kids to soft serve ice cream. So fun

It rained a bit on our last trip. But the waves were awesome to watch

Movie night

Stopped at a Kite Festival on our way home

Cole loves snuggling on the couch in the morning

Mommy and Cole being silly

Painting fun

Danielle went to NY for two weeks and my mom watched Penelope.  I took her back to Seattle for my sister.  Enjoying our car ride together.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to our jog-a-thon fundraiser. We raised $500. The school exceeded their goal. It is the main fundraiser for the school.  Cole was sick but I was able to see Alexis run

Having fun with our neighbors

I consign for JBF.  I sell my gently used items as well as for other mom's.  Here I am at work organizing and tagging.  Had over 1,000 tags

Cole was visiting me while I was tagging and decided to sit in one of the car seats and have a snack:)

Happy September!!
