Pumpkin Patch 2010



It's that time of year again when we become Pumpkin Patch mistresses, visiting everyone we can find. Already have hit Clayton and now Peasant Hill.

I was lucky enough to have some of the best company on the planet during our adventure. Ellie has Lucas and Hava has Dashel two of the cutest kinds ever (minus the two others that were in school at the time of our visit)
I LOVE ELLIE AND HAVA
They are two of the most amazing Mom's I have ever met and to top it all off we all share the same Birthday, Ellie one day before Hava and I. It as if we were a meant to be Mommy troupe and I always have a blast when I am with them. Plus it does not hurt that they are hilarious and crazy just like me ... well the crazy part anyway.
Enjoy the trillion pics

Happy Harvest

This is a bit Strange

It does feel a little funny to be doing 3rd grade
curriculum planning. Cutting a creative writing page prompt
all the while listening to my ipod ... Eminem .... is that wrong?
TOTALLY EDUCATIONAL ... right?
The GANGSTA homeschooling Mom
WORD!

Parker is NINE and we had a GREAT Birthday celebration.

Parker is slightly obsessed with everything Garfield at the moment, so
the decoration of the wonderful cake was left to the master.
Then for his big Birthday celebration we took a drive to the Sonoma
Hills and took flying trapeze lessons. Parker
rocked it and Cohen made it half way up the latter. We decided
Beans is mostly brave when no one is watching, but with
an audience he second guesses himself.

Enjoy the CRAZY pictures of the out of the ordinary
Stockbridge experiences.

Happy Birthday Parker
Your eager heart and creative mind
make me a better Mom.
I love you with all my heart and I
am excited to see who
you become to this world.

Just Some Good Pictures













































































GIANTS JOBL Pee Wee Player COHEN

2010 GIANTS
Pee Wee Baseball
Cohen started Pee Wee Baseball for Fall ball this season
and is LOVING it!
At first Mom and Dad were a bit concerned because it is a 4yr-6yr range and
lets just say, when kids have played before that is quite a age gap.
I thought for sure it was not going to work when he started calling his
glove his mitten, but he proved us all TOTALLY wrong.
At last Saturdays game he hit his first ball and got all the way to second before
our last up to bat was struck out. BOO HOO...
His face was AWESOME, he was so stoked to have even made contact with the
ball that 2nd base was an added bonus. He received the game ball and it felt like he won the
world series for all of us.
The ball will be framed and kept under lock and key.
Can't wait for his first home run!
We are SO proud #3


game ball
right after coach handed him the ball he turned to me with this precious proud face.
I love you beans
