I stumbled on to this picture of Emma and Jena after a hard night of Trick or Treating.  We could tell Emma was beat so we called it a night after this photo.

We haven’t been very good about updating the blog lately.  That doesn’t mean that nothing has been going on.  Where do we begin?

Last weekend Emma went to the zoo with Alex and Sydney.  Polly bought everyone an annual pass to the zoo and NW trek!  If you are dying to go to the zoo or NW Trek, let us know.  We can take up to three guests in with us each time for free.  Thanks Polly!

Emma had her friend Jena over last Friday night after the PTA sponsored “Family Fun Night”.  Jena spent the night and they both slept in Emma’s room.  They both really wanted to sleep on the floor next to each other but the “party pooper” parents made each of them sleep in their own spots.  (Emma had to sleep in her bed).  I think they both had a great time and enjoyed the pancakes the next morning for breakfast.

Last week, Emma had an action packed schedule at school.  On Tuesday both kindergarten classes hopped on a bus and headed to Remlinger farms for their first field trip.  I think the kids were much more excited to ride the bus than they were to go to the farm.  Needless to say, they had a great time doing both.

Unfortunately, as the week went on, Emma got sick.  She had a fever of over 103 degrees so we took her to the doctor.  She is now having to take a couple medicines for the next ten days to get over it.  She was very disappointed to miss school for two days, including the “Harvest Party” on Friday.  We had volunteered to help at the party so Katie went in and helped while Jeff stayed home with Emma.  (Katie brought some things home for Emma which helped.)  Last night, we let Emma do a little trick or treating around the neighborhood but kept it fairly short since she wasn’t feeling well.  She had a great time.  The picture below looks more like a “Heroes” episode than anything else.  Darth Vader and the Cheerleader are such an interesting pair.
