potluck

last night we were lucky enough to come together as a community and celebrate the success of the Farm's start up season. the food turned out delicious and the band (a group of students from the local high school) was great! an added bonus: I finally had an excuse to use all my second hand tablecloths / cloth napkins at one time!

first day!

zack had a wonderful first day at preschool. after walking him in and hanging up his backpack, zack went into the room where all the blocks are and said "bye mommy, bye penny". no looking back! at pick-up the kids were all so cute sitting on the bench waiting for their mommies with their backpacks on. he told me "i love preschool!" sweet zack - he makes my heart sing!

zack gives a "thumbs up" on his first day.

happy third birthday, zack!

summer / fall

the little keenans bid a final farewell to summer this weekend with a visit to the beach with nonnie and grampy on saturday and said hello to fall with an apple-picking trip to tougas farm on monday. here's the trip mom remembered the camera for:

excavator

our good friends down the street are putting a pool in their yard. lucky for the little keenans, we've been able to get some sneak peeks into the excavation and construction. zack seems to be "digging" hanging out in the excavator bucket with his pal tyler (sorry, couldn't resist).
