Gemma starts soccer

Gemma looked like a natural her first time on the soccer field. I'm pretty sure she was having fun too, as she several times jumped up and down and giggled while playing. Another parent commented it was a bit like watching a Foosball game, with each child standing in their position waiting for the ball to come to them. I think we may be watching a lot of soccer games in our future.

Rocky Ridge

We made a quick trip to Rocky Ridge for our first bags of apples for the season. I love that place! Glad there are things to do other than picking as we got 31 pds in minutes.

Potato Harvest

The girls had a blast at our CSA helping with the potato harvest on Labor Day. What could be more fun than lots of buried treasures and vast stretches of recently turned up soil. We had to spray the girls off with the garden hose when we came home. They returned the favor by washing up MINH.

Alfred's Island

The girl's always love to see Alfred. We had another great time getting wet on and around Alfred's Island. Too bad I didn't have the camera for the water fun. Both girls jumped off the "log" on the "cliff". Thanks Alfred!

Gemma's first day

Gemma's style is to sit back and take it all in. So was the first day of kindergarten. She was excited, but was observing and didn't want to be bothered to smile. Gemma's biggest complaint about the day was that her time at school was too short. Wonder how much longer she will feel that way?
