We had a very busy weekend!


Over the weekend we went to a Autumn Festival at Journey School, a Birthday Party, and a Fundraiser. The Autumn Festival was so much fun and the boys really enjoyed it. They had a puppet show and it was the story of "Puff the Magic Dragon". It was just 2 people doing all of the puppets (marionnettes) and singing/telling the story. The boys really liked it!! I bought some really yummy raw chocolates and put my name in for some raffles, but I didn't win any. The boys checked out the kindergarten room which they loved and played in the playground. I really hope the boys can get in this school. The application process starts in February (Journey School is a free charter Waldorf School).

Sunday I went to the Farmer's Market, then we went to Kayla's 2 year birthday party and we all had fun. They had a music teacher come in and do a music class with the kids and everyone loved it. The pictures are from Kayla's party. Also we took home some pomegranantes, limes and apples from Jen's tree (thanks Jen!!). I'm going to make some Pomegranant juice today.
The apples we picked from Jen's tree are called Pink Pearl apples...they are yellow-green on the outside and have pink flesh. They were kind of tart and sweet but good. The kids did some cool crafts and then we left to go to Christofer's Fundraiser in Laguna Beach. Christofer is a 3 year old boy that used to be in Ian's preschool class and he has an inoperable brain tumor. So, this fundraiser is a way to raise money for the alternative therapies they are using to try and heal him. It is so very sad but they are trying to stay positive and are hoping for a miracle. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
