4??? Where did the time go!

Dylan turned 4 on September 2nd. I can hardly believe he's 4 years old.

We had a Pirate themed birthday party for him on Saturday the 6th. It was a bit cloudy out but we still managed some outdoor activity for the day.

I made his cake:



We had a treasure hunt in the sand box. Larry filled it with sand and we added "gold" coins, rings, gems and a few pirates. All the kids were digging fools:




And Dylan was even inside the sandbox digging for his treasure:

Dylans First Day of School

This September Dylan started preschool at Deer Lakes Nursery School. He was so excited because this was the preschool where Sissy went.

Here he is doing puzzles.

A few of the boys in his class were in our Monday play group. We met because their siblings all went to preschool together and kindergarten and now Bryce, Michael & Dylan will be going to preschool and kindergarten together too.

Here's Dylan & Bryce listening very intently at story time.
Michael is on the far left with the white blonde hair:
I wish he would listen that well to me!


We have determined that mommy can't visit him at school. I met him at school for orientation and he was doing fine playing with toys and others, however, once he saw me he became clingy and uncooperative...until the promise of a treat after story time was told.

Marissa the 1st Grader!

Wow I can't believe she's in first grade already!

Iced Tea Here! Get Your Iced Cold Iced Tea Here!

One day over the summer Dylan wanted to have a lemonade stand. Having no lemons or mix available, I whipped up a batch of sweetened iced tea for them to sell. It was D & M and the neighbor Seva. They didn't too bad. They earned about 80 cents each, for a total of $2.40 of which I staked them 90 cents and both Larry and I bought a cup each.

BATMAN!

Dylan got Batman PJ's when Aunt Ester visited from California.

Down On The Farm

A local orchards/farm has Corn Roasts on Sundays in August & September. It's the most delicious corn I've ever tasted. I took the kids one Sunday in August where they went to the petting/feeding zoo, played in the houses and structures, had hotdogs and delicious roasted corn. As you can see, Dylan wasn't so sure about feeding the goats!
