Election Day!!!

This cold yucky day is election day! After we sent Clayton off to school, I explained to Claire that we were going to vote! I told her that we would go get a drink, and stop by the library(get her a book while we wait in line forever...)then go vote!
She was really upset,& as we were driving to the gas station she was crying & wondered"what kind of water we were going to use?" I had no idea what she was talking about! or why she was so upset! Then it hit me! She thought we were going to "BOAT" I listened to her & she was indeed saying "I don't want to boat..." She was probably wondering where we are going to "boat" & why, because it is not a nice day!)I tried to explain that I was saying "V...V...Vote" then commented on her great rhyming! She was excited about that!:)

better late than never

I know that our summer on Orcas was a LONG time ago, but I found these pictures of our flight & they made me really happy! I also really love this picture of all these starfish! I really think I need to live by the ocean! Enjoy

High School Musical 3 Senior Year!

Today Kennedy, some of her friends & us mom's went to see High School Musical 3! It was fun! If I remember right High School was NOTHING like the movie, but it was very entertaining, & I wonder how long it will be until the whole family has all the songs memorized! I am sure it wont be long! Connor stayed home to pass out candy & I took Clayton & Claire around the neighborhood! The McBride's surprised Clayton & Claire with a lego set & a My Little Pony for Claire! & of coarse full size candy bars! We also made homemade pizza! We love to hang out with them! They are a great family! Clayton thinks Tim(the dad) is one of his best friends! (Which I think he might be!)

Kennedy went trick-or-treating with her friends & came over later for pizza! Connor went to a party with the neighborhood kids. He said he had a good time, Then he got to have a sleepover! What better way to end a perfect Halloween?
