Lobster + Birthday = Happy Shawn

For Shawn's Birthday, we visited the Long Beach Lobster Festival. What are the chances that the second largest Lobster Festival would be happening on Shawn's Birthday?? We couldn't pass up the chance!! The lobster was plentiful...
and the inflatable bounce houses and slides were unlimited...everyone was happy!!

A Labor Day Shower in the Park

Harry with the Hoffy's

To help encourage the Hoffy girls to read Harry Potter, I suggested that we watch the movie when they finished the first book. I had an ulterior motive...I've unsuccessfully tried to talk Logan into having a Harry Potter birthday party for a few years so I jumped at the chance to spread a little Hogwarts magic around the house.
We set up Shawn's new outdoor screen to view Harry under the stars. The design your own chocolate covered wands was their favorite part...
although the making of shadow puppets after the movie was a big hit too!!

Gotta love a good egg drop...
Logan's egg survived the first round
Mr. Armstrong added a little more uummmfff the next time around...
and the egg didn't do so well ...YUCK!

First Day of School...nine weeks ago...

Caden started at the PHS Preschool this fall...he loves the idea of going to Logan's "old school".
Logan is in Mrs. Thresher's class this year...
with the same pack of crazy boys from last year...this should be fun!?!
We celebrated our first week back with one our favorite treats...yum

They grow up so fast
