Fall was loads of fun too. Right before school started, we got up early and visited the Evergreen Aviation Museum when they hosted the balloon festival! Besides creating an awesome photo opportunity, this was a very exciting thing to witness. At least 50 hot air balloons took turns inflating and taking off, and we got to watch them up close and far away!
When School started, we were very busy acclimating to 5th and 2nd grades. Cassie had to get used to switching classes for Math and Reading. This will prepare her for next year, where she will switch classes all day long. Middle School is around the corner, lurking!Zoe really started the year off with a bang, diving feet first into 2nd grade. Peter started parent helping every Tuesday in her classroom, and this is a fun way for him to stay connected with her at school.
Peter and I are involved in the PTO, and helped run the fall fundraiser - the Jaguar Jog! This was a very successful event, and raised a lot of cash for the school. Speaking of cash, Peter is our Treasurer, and so he did all the hard work of counting the money!
October brought my birthday, another visit to the Mountain House, and
Halloween! November brought Cassie's birthday, and Thanksgiving at uncle Bob's. We spent the day after Thanksgiving at the Mountain House with my parents.

Gosh you have good looking kids! I'm just wandering by, an independent spirit who has no connection with your family at all (!!), but I couldn't help noticing how good looking you *all* are. Must be some excellent genes in your families somewhere. Well, good-bye for now, the total stranger said. I'll try and check in later.
