Fall Fling 2009

This year we went to Vermont and New York on our fall fling. We had a great time! We went to a farm, Ben and Jerry's factory, Ethan Ellen homestead. Grace did a great job smiling for pics. We had loads of hot coca, apple cider and tea. We also went swimming at the hotel like last year. As always lots of junior mints and fun. Nani and Papa had to leave earlier then the last time but it was still great. One of the highlight of all

kids interviews was milking the cow. We also went to Lake Placid where the olyimpics were help so years ago. We saw lots of cool sporting places and walked all around the lake. We had a superfrajajistic trip this year!!

Ella and Grace

Ella is being a great big sister to Grace! She's always watching out for her and helping her! Gracie is growing up ever day and so is Ella! They have great times together!

Zoo

We went to the Zoo we our close friends. The animals were very cute and big. We saw big an little animals. We even saw butterflies! The first animals we saw were zebras. They were just like in the pictures!! We had lots of fun!

Back to School!

We had a great first day of school! Chloe went in to second and Hailey fourth! The day went by so quickly because we had lots of fun!!! Well, we look forward to more school!

Camping 2009

A couple weekends ago we went camping! It was a lot of fun!! We brought rafts so we could paddle out. There was a pond there called Elbow Pond and that's we swam. It was in New Hampshire and we went we our cousins and their cousins. The pancake toss was great fun this year because we had a pancake that lasted through all the parents and all the kids. It was a well cooked pancake! There was also lots of places to explore. There are trails there so the kids would wonder off. Aunt Amy made a wonderful soup and Grandma and Grandpa told excellent stories. Gracie did not sleep well so Dad had to get in the car with her at 3:00 and drive her around. But all the work payed off when she finally fell asleep. But Dad did not get a bit of sleep. But other wise we had great camping!!

Chloe's Tomato

Because of the rainy season we Chloe has only gotten 1 perfect ripe tomato. Chloe was really excited when she heard she had a ripe tomato! She still has it! There are some green tomatoes but they're not ready yet!

Soccer Camp!

A couple weeks ago I had a soccer camp. We did a lot of drills and had awesome coaches! I most of all loved playing world cup! I also liked playing pirates of the Caribbean. It was when you ran across some grassy land and the coaches shot soccer balls at you. We you got hit you had to be a pirate and shoot balls out to the runners. It was awesome and I am looking forward to next year!!!
