Annika's First Bus ride to School on first day of Kindergarten
I wasn't as hard as I thought to watch my youngest child begin school this week. She loves it. She looks forward to riding the bus to school and spending the morning with her teacher, Mrs. Garrett. They grow up so fast.
She also lost her first tooth this week. 
The tooth fairy brought a nice crisp one dollar bill! I t has been very exciting around our house!
The tooth fairy brought a nice crisp one dollar bill! I t has been very exciting around our house!Another big deal around here, is the Puyallup fair. The kids, get free tickets at school as do my husband and I as teachers. So we make at least one trip to the two week long fair. We really just go for the kids. I do love to spend several hours looking at all the exhibits, barns, hobbies, quilts etc... but the kids won't last and my husband grew up in the area and now would rather not go altogether.
It was a fun trip this year. The kids were great and we were there for about 3 hours. Michael, my almost 8 year old, loves to do the dunk tank. 5 balls for a dollar and on his 4th ball, he dunked the poor girl on the left side! He was thrilled. Daddy, the baseball coach was thrilled. It was great. After the rides we
It's a good thing that I'll be running 6 Summits tomorrow with Michelle and Eric to burn off all that Fair food! We even came home with a dozen fair scones! You just can't make them the same at home!
I am really looking forward to tomorrow's run, 17 mikes of hilly trails. Getting out into the woods of Tiger Mountain will be just the thing to start off the week and bring this week's running to a close. I am still struggling with a tight IT band, but it is less painful and only achy sometimes. I am having some issues with my left hip and the illiac crest. I continue Physical therapy and stretch, stretch, stretch.
I pray all is well with you!
Grace and Peace to you.

Love that bloody-toothed smile! She's so grown up from when we first met...but still just as adorable.
By the way, I've been the girl in the dunk tank before - it's not much fun for the dunkee, just the dunker. And, I can't believe you ate a krusty pup - scones, of course. Personally, I'd go to that one special stand, over near the dog barn and get fries - yum!
See you bright and early!
OMG, she looks so adorable! And the tooth fairy must be hijacking prices - I'm pretty sure I only got a nickel! =)
Hope you have a great time tomorrow, and I hope your legs feel perfect for you the whole time!
Great photos Jenny! Man I need to get to the fair and get some scones! Nice run today! Hope the legs are working in the morning!

What a cutie, Jenny!! How neat!
And that four-seam fast ball worked well for your son!!
Sounds like you guys had an awesome trail run...cool!
I have such great memories of the county fair when I grew up in northern OH dairy country. Now in So Cal the Los Angeles County fair is pretty much just a danger zone. Times have changed.
