I might go and buy some Christmas decorations, our local Walmart has them in stock already. I know Labor Day is the official end of summer but it's a wee bit early to be thinking about Christmas.

Well that's a good thing! Its nice and sunny here in Kent (about 25 odd miles from downtown Seattle) its pleasantly cool, which is fantastic because its been hotter than hot here. Still, the hubs is at work and its left up to me to entertain the little one.....

They are back to school here, but of course not on Labor Day. And not for my little one, she's just 3. However, I'm currently searching high and low for a preschool.

Sorry about the toe.

My parents got in yesterday. They went straight from Logan to a party at the boat marina place bless 'em.

Today we did some touristy stuff and in an unrelated incident Mr Sibsie left for a week's flying!
