Back to school night

 There it is!  School of Imagination.

On her way.

 V's classroom.

 Bad things happened here.  We won't talk about it.

 Fun toys to play with.

 Horsey ride home.

Lessons from her sisters

 I have a feeling they probably taught her this face.

A dog just Violet's size.  Hi, Cali!

 Haley certainly inspired that outfit.  Nice, V.

 Quite the tower!

 Daddy thinks he's SO funny.

Daddy daughter time

 This is truly my favorite blog post.  EVER.

Random recap

 First, little V at school.

 Haley hard at work.  On something.

 A good place to sit?

 Books.  Always.

 Hmmm...also not a great part to sit.

Mori Point

We had to be on the peninsula anyway to go to SFO, so we used it as an excuse to hike in Pacifica.  Seeing the Pacific never gets old.

Play dates

 We met up with some of Stephie and Haley's friends from Amador last year to paint some ahem...gorgeous...pottery.

 California poppies in bloom.

 The last apple harvest of the season.

Happy half birthday Stephie!!!

 Our big girl is 8.5!  Writing multi-page typed book reports, learning Spanish, solving algebra problems for Daddy (in her head).  Stephie continues to amaze me.

 Always in 5th position.

 Pretty girl.

 A bell for her new bike.

 Zootopia.
