Halloween 2008

We celebrated Halloween by going to our church's Trunk or Treat on Friday night. Jenna was Mike Sullivan from "Monsters Inc.," and Jaren was a clone trooper from Star Wars. You would have thought Jenna was a celebrity by how many little kids and adults came up and commented on how cute her costume was or how much they loved "Sulli" on Monster's Inc.! One little girl even asked to have her picture taken with Jenna. We came home with enough candy to last for a year. The next night we went to Nana's house and showed off their costumes.

Field Trip to Farm

Jaren's Kindergarten Class went on their first field trip this past Friday to a local farm, and Andy took the day off of work and went along. As you can see, they had a lot of fun! Enjoy....

Fall Break Hike

We enjoyed part of our Fall Break this weekend going on a short hike in a beautiful local park about 5 minutes from our house. We were teasing Jaren that he had found the "world's largest leaf!" Happy Fall....

Big Nino's Pizzeria

Jaren's kindergarten class (as well as the morning and all-day classes) opened "Big Nino's Pizzeria" for one night only at their school this past Friday night. They had made invitations, menus, placemats and order forms, and then had a pizza making lesson from the Domino's man earlier in the week. That evening they escorted their guests to their seats, had a small program with pizza songs and poems, took their families orders and then served them. I don't think they made them do the dishes though! Jaren had a lot of fun and has enjoyed playing "restaurant" at home ever since.
