1st Day of Preschool

Ethan had his first day of preschool on September 8, 2011. He was so excited about it and he kept talking about for weeks. On his first day he got a little scared and was very shy, he gets that from me, poor guy. He goes 2 days a week for 2 hours, it's not very long but I think he will get a lot of learning out of it. I am so proud of my little guy! He told me after his 1st day that the next time he wouldn't be shy, too cute. I love that he is aware of his shyness and he is working on it.

Aliana wanted to go to school too, she was ready with her book.

Seattle

After Elisha's first set of tests at school, he needed a much needed getaway. So for Labor Day weekend we decided to get away and head to Seattle. We had lots of fun! We visited the Science Center, Space Needle and Pike's Place Market. Seattle is a beautiful place, great views, great food and great family fun. We loved it so much we plan to visit again!

Our Med Student

So the whole reason we came to Yakima, WA is because Elisha got into Medical School. For the next 4 years he will be attending Pacific Northwest University. So far we really love it here and have met some really wonderful people.

August 1, 2011-1st day of school! We are so proud of you!

Before

Oregon July 10-11

Our final stop Eugene, Oregon to see Elisha's brother, Aunt Trisha and his grandma. It Was a short but fun trip. I guess by this time I was tired of taking pictures because I have none of his brother or of us raspberry picking. Yakima, WA here we come!!!

California June 14- July 7, 2011

Always fun to go home and see our families, and especially to see our kids get to know their grandparents, aunts and uncles and all their cousins!
