First Day of School 2010

Back to school. I have mixed emotions this summer. It just flew by. I wasn't quite ready for them to go back (I'm sure I would have been after a few more days). Katie is in the 1st grade and going to school all day for the first time. Her teacher is Mrs. Snider. Tanner is in 5th grade, big man on campus. His teacher is Mrs. Admire. This is the last year Tanner and Katie will ever be in the same school ever again. Garret is going to pre-school with Miss Lexie again.

Priest Lake Camping

We went camping over labor day weekend with our friends the Clarks and the Skidmores, and my brother Jon and his family. It was lots of fun. We went boating (even though it was quite cold), on a beautiful hike to some natural water slides, geocaching, on a scenic boat ride to upper priest lake, and we ate and ate. I love camping food. The kids had a great time playing with each other. They played murder one night in the bunk house and the next day Garret was walking around yelling "Murder, Murder, Murder" at the top of his lungs. He was also very fond of "shut your pie hole" this weekend. He needs a big bar of soap.

This is the sunken ship at Lion's Head camp ground. It has been there since I was a kid. We had to drive by on the boat and see if it was still there.
