Meet Your Teacher

We went to Meet Your Teacher today. Eliza meet her teacher Ms.  Huisjen, but of course wouldn't let me take her picture with here. Here is Gretta with her teacher Mrs. Rochefort. 

It's going to be a great year!

Class lists 2014

The Day Class lists are posted is always super fun for the kids! They post the list at 5pm and then all leave, so you can't go bug them about who your kid got. Then the next day is meet your teacher. This time we didn't know who any of the teacher were or many of the kids. Eliza did end up with 3 kids she already knows in her class. It's going to be a great year!

Hanging around

Well this week mittens and tiger did much better- no pooping or peeing outside the litter box. Yeah!!! Plus we got two new little boxes. They are much less messy and Gretta is a pro at changing them so things are looking up. I think mittens and tiger like it here:). Tiger is super sweet and nice and mittens is more plateful. He also is more wary of Carli which is pretty smart of him:) Carli sure loves her baby cats. Eliza has been so much happier since we got them and Gretta has shown a lot of responsibility. So it's been super positive.  

Frog Pet Sitting

I watched my friend, Abbey's, pet frog while she was on vacation. I didn't know before she dropped him off that he was poisonous or maybe I would have backed out. Luckily he survived 11 days at our house. 

Getting Ready for Back To School

Eric hung this rack today in the garage for the girls backpacks. Gretta informed me this morning that school starts in 1 week and 2 days. So I guess the count down is on. I will miss having Gretta and Eliza home all day. At the beginning of the summer I wondered how we were going to survive but with the help of lots of friends and family we survived an epic summer and now I am sad for it to end. 

Pickles

For some reason our food co-op has been giving us lots of cucumbers. In my attempt to find something to do with all of them I made Pickles. Or I should say Eric helped me make pickles. Some sweet and some dill all refrigerator recipes. We have to wait a few days to try them.
