Ren Fest Fun!

Yesterday we made out annual trip to Ren Fest to visit Twig the Fairy. Sad news of the day, this is her last year at the MN Ren Fest. Now we will have to travel to AZ to see her, which won't be nearly often enough! She knows we visit every year and recognizes the kids...and Josh...she even gave us a free video and two signed posters when we went to say goodbye!

On a brighter note, we have a very special Mermaid to visit now who also doubles as part of the Royal Court. Rowan's student teacher from Kindergarten has been a mermaid for a few years and we did kinda know her before she was in his class, but we were super excited to get to know her better and Rowan could not WAIT to visit Mermaid Cove to see her again! She also told us about a Children's Knighting ceremony and said she would love for Rowan to be there...so she could present him to the king herself to be knighted! It was such a cool thing to watch and Rowan was so proud! How cool!

No Pictures, But It's Picture Day!

Ok, so today is school picture day and I figured I could probably post something since It's been a few weeks. Not only do Riley and Rowan have pictures and look all cleaned up and cute today, but guess who else has to have school pictures taken today??? Yup! Mom now has to have her picture taken too! Now that I work at the school, picture day means update your school ID badge...which is good because the current picture on my badge was taken at the District Office when I was told to go in and fill out paperwork...no mention of my picture being taken...so I was wearing a T-shirt, my hair was a mess and most of my makeup was gone! I am looking forward to a better picture, but who knew I would ever have to do another school picture day after I finished school!

Not only do we have school pictures this week, but this weekend, weather permitting, we are having new family photos taken, so stay tuned for some updates to the Blog side photo and a sneak peak at the pics we don't use for the Christmas Card :)

YIKES! All these pictures! Guess who's been doing a LOT of ironing and shopping and freaking out! I think next week we calm down...just long enough to breathe before October gets crazy again!

Birthday Weekend!

Happy 8th Birthday to Miss Kiley! Can't believe you are already 8 years old!!! This pic is a Kiley selfie found on my phone during our family trip up North...Taking after her Uncle Dude?!?! Can't wait to party with you today! Love you!

Oh, and as soon as I can get my photos to share from my phone I will post pics of my grandma's 94th b-day party...which just so happened to fall on 9/4 this year! Cool!
