Skagit Farm Tour- Bow

Last stop on the tour ( only because it was past noon and Josh needed lunch and the kids needed to be set free into a padded room to burn off all the energy) we went to Golden Glen Creamery in Bow.

We got free ice cream bars, milked a pretend cow , got up close to some real heifers and smelled the smells of being on a cow farm.

Skagit Farm Tour -Mt. Vernon

Stop number 2 on the tour was the very popular Schuh Farms located in Mt. Vernon. Where we got the pumpkins, saw some farm animals and went onto a tractor ride.

Skagit Farm Tour- Laconner

First stop on the Skagit Farm Tour was LaConner's Hedlin Family Farm located off Valley Road.

Can't beat free pony rides and veggie cars.

Monday

Thank you to my hubby for the wonderful surprise on Saturday. It was more then great to go to lunch with you and the kids, very relaxing to get surprised with a facial at the spa and just fantastic that I came home to a house full of family and friends.

Thanks to everyone who came over to celebrate.

Thanks to Brooke who brought her toothbrush ( that meant she was spending the night).

To my aunty Indira and dad for bringing the house down with the Army team cheer, to Bob for the ride down to the Brown ( Brooke and I should have not left the house:) and most of all thank you to the moon and back baby doll for making me feel so special on my birthday.

Just for the Record

Today after Emmit's movement class we also put on his soccer cleats and ran around town looking extremely sporty.

Movement Class

So Emmit started his MOVEMENT class today. So what if Emmit is the ONLY boy signed up for the dance oh sorry Josh I mean MOVEMENT class. Emmit did a great job and enjoyed every minute of it. I think it helped that his main squeeze Tatum was in the class.

"Check ME Out MOM"

"I am working on my vertical jump here dad"

"Which one do I pick? How about the Sassy blond to my left."

"Hey Tatum what are you doing later tonight?"

"Working on my balance"

First Day of Pre-School For Grace

Today Grace started pre school. Her teachers are Miss Louise and Miss Jodie.
There are 6 girls in the class and like 15 boys! We like these odds for Grace.

Grace felt really comfortable in the classroom and felt the need to share with everyone that her daddy is a teacher and that she loves horses. Oh yeah and that her favorite colors are purple and pink.

This is going to be a great year.

I signed up for PTA ( more on that later) and ordered Grace her first school t-shirt.Grace is officially a Whitney Dragon. Who knows maybe tonight I will make cup cakes for the whole class...

We love you Grace and look forward to following you though all your adventures at Pre -school.
