End of Summer

We have been enjoying our last days of summer. It is so nice to go for an evening bike ride, evening swim at Grandma and Paka's, a random trip to the store or park, or do noting at all, but the summer days are ending and reality is setting back in. I have not been blogging as much because I have been working on getting back in the swing of school. Grandma and Paka bought this bike trailer for Kainoa but he wasn't using it anymore, so Aunt Jennifer offered it to us and we have had lots of fun with it. Paige is still getting used to it, and usually rides on the back of my bike in a bike seat, but Geoff took the girls and Jack out for a ride to the park the other day while I was at a parent meeting at Allie's preschool.

Paige was shopping the other day and turned her hat backwards. I didn't get a picture (Geoff did on his phone) and Allie said she looked like "David" with her hat turned backwards. Geoff said "Who?" and Allie said "you know Uncle Dave".....and she totally did! She had to stop and pose for a picture too. She is into posing when the camera comes out!!

Allie was writing a story and Paige was doing body art! She is famous for that around here!
PS. Mom...Teddy is next to the computer on the table along with a bunch of other junk ;o)

I thought we would do something really fun as a family before school started, but that is tomorrow, so it didn't quite happen. But Geoff and the girls got to do something fun today so that was good!! He and Grandma Ganne took the girls to the zoo, so I could work. The zoo would have been more fun, but I got a lot done and feel ready to start back to the grind. It is amazing how much you can get done without 2 little bear cubs in the mix! I was able to get all organized and ready for my meetings while the little ones were away. The best part is looking ahead at the 2011-2012 school calendar for the summer break to start again!!


We have had a great summer, but look forward to a great school year ahead. Allie can hardly wait to have her first day of 4 year old preschool!!! Paige will start back at Kindermusik, so we will be busy, busy!!
