I love September. It's the month of mine and Brady's birthdays, the weather is almost the best of the year, school is back in session, it's just a feel-good month.
That's not to say we didn't have a good time in August:
The girls and I had lunch at PF Chang's on our epic school-clothes shopping expedition.
We celebrated Carly and Jim's 5 year anniversary at their cool mid-century home.
We went to an Everett Aquasox game courtesy of my employer (and the girls got to sing 'Take Me Out to the Ballgame' during the 7th inning stretch out on the field).
We took the ferry to the island to visit family and go to the island county fair.
Makenzie was the only kid brave enough to go on the zipper, so dad had to buck up and chaperon.
Georgia Gerber is one of Whidbey's most notorious residents (pike place pig, anyone?) and her bronze art also stands in front of the pig barn at the fair. They cover it with a canopy so kids don't burn their hiney's sitting on it.
We also spent a paycheck at the Evergreen state fair. The girls got their money's worth out of their all-day ride wristbands. Brady however "didn't want to go in the air" which made his wristband essentially worthless.
We shelled out some dough so the kids could chase each other around like hamsters.
The girls showed off their acrobat skills:
And Brady found his calling when he got to mow his Aunt Jacquie's property.
