Picking out Pumpkins

Here are some pictures of us picking out our pumpkins.

First Day of 1st Grade

Here is Katera's first day of school. We decided to enroll her in the spanish immersion program. She has two teachers. One of them, Mrs. Barker speaks only spanish in her class while Mrs. Neral speaks only English. So far she can count to 90 in spanish and is learning a few words. She told me she didn't want to be in the spanish class anymore when Mrs. Barker told them she wasn't going to speak English at all anymore. I think she has since gotten over that.

California

Katera & I went to California to visit my family - without Harland because he had to work. We had a lot of fun. We went to Legoland and went kayaking in the ocean and we can finally see that Katera is actually learning from her swim lessons. She loves diving for rings now. Here are a few pictures of the trip.

Some guy sculpted this squid in the sand.

And finally Legoland:

Katera wanted her face painted so badly.
