They stopped and said hi to the kids, passed out stickers (last time we got fireman hats!), and turned on the lights. The kids LOVED it.
And don't worry, they stopped on their way out. :)

The firetruck
Oh, the benefits of living in an older neighborhood.
(Seriously, we see the fireman and ambulance in our neighborhood a couple times a year.)

Thank you Blake
My sweet little boy. . .and yet so mischievous! I kid you not, he cut my curtains, pulled apart his rug, destroyed his piggy bank, ripped his belt in half, and cut his sister's hair in a matter of days. Or at least I found all the destroyed things in a matter of days.
Here's Addi's new hair cut, courtesy of Blake: Chopped off some hair in the front.
Took out a chunk in the back. (right in the middle, where there is no long hair)
And here's the new fix-it do:
(She was fast asleep but you can see I had to do a little 'a-frame' cut.)
I just can't believe my little stinker. I told him next time to cut his OWN hair!

Saturday is a special day. . .
My parents came up to spend the weekend with us since we could just not get away! It was so fun to spend time with them, enjoying their favorite activity. :)
It was such a beautiful day! And I loved to see the color changes coming!
Good times. Thanks to my mom & dad!

The race
Emmalee & Blake ran in a race that Capital High put together for elementary students. It was Blake's first race. He did awesome and was so excited about it. Emmalee also raced and ended up getting 10th place. All the kids got ribbons and dinner. It was great!
Here's my little runners:

Birthday Girl
Wow! Seriously??!?! 8 YEARS OLD?!?!? I have loved watching Emmalee grow up and become the girl that she is. She is bright, she is curious, she is funny. I recently found out that she can read 194 words per minute! Isn't that insane?!?! (Average for 2nd grade is 90) Needless to say, she LOVES to read! She would read all day if she could. I'm so proud of her hard work in everything she does. I love you Emmalee!!
