Halloween Carnival 2011

Wed, Oct 26th the kids attended the ward Halloween Carnival.  It was a lot of fun.  Michael and Marissa helped out with some of the booths, and the other kids just had fun.  Here are the photos from the first of several dress-up days this year!  Kaylee loved her Tinkerbell outfit, and said, "I look gorgeous in this dress!"

First Days of School!

School started here September 7, 2011.  Michael attends Columbia River High, Marissa and Ryan are at Thomas Jefferson Middle School, and Brent, Trevor, and Preston are attending Lake Shore Elementary.  Preston was in the afternoon kindergarten until Monday, September 26th.  He moved to morning so that he could attend a reading group with First graders.  Evidently there are no other kindergarteners this year at his reading level.  He's excited to move to mornings, however.  He will be with a girl from his primary class now!
