Como Town - Fall 2013

To top off Kyle's birthday weekend, we took one last family trip to Como Town Amusement Park.  All three kids were finally big enough for a few new rides.  Lauren loved driving the cars and did surprising well (didn't hit anyone).  Both boys loved the bumper cars and the new zip line ride. 

Such a good big brother who will go on the "little kid" rides with his sister 

Old enough to drive his own bumper car 

Watch Out 

She was so serious about her first time "driving" 

Ready for take off on the zip line

She loved driving her horse 

Climbing Fun

Chuseok 2013

In mid September, we celebrated Chuseok (it's like Thanksgiving in Korea).  We enjoyed a yummy Korean meal and Lauren wore her beautiful pink hanbok.  The hanbok was a gift from our family in Korea.  She calls herself a Korean Princess whenever she wears it and loves to dance and twirl.

Kyle's 7th Birthday

Just a few short days after school started, we celebrated Kyle's 7th birthday.  His birthday fell on a weekend this year, so it was a full day of celebrations.  We kicked things off with a small party with a few close friends and cousins.  Kyle loves movies, so we had a movie themed party with a special showing of Monsters Inc.  The kids played a few games then they loaded up on candy and popcorn from our concessions stand and watch the movie on a big screen.  We ended with monster cupcakes, gifts, and outside playtime.  Following his friend party we continued the celebration with a small family party.  Pizza and more cake followed.  He declared this to be the best party ever.  Happy 7th Birthday my sweet boy.  We love you to the moon and back.

Back to School 2013

The beginning of September brings back to school time for us.  The boys started the day after Labor Day and Lauren began a week later.  Hard to believe that Cameron is now a 4th grader, Kyle a 1st grader (and will be gone all day long now), and Lauren will be in preschool.  I now have a few hours to myself each week to get thing done and run errands.  What a change from last year.  All the kids were super excited for school. Thank goodness each of them loves school.
