Autumn Is In The Air


We've been busy visiting the pumpkin patch, making apple turnovers and pumpkin pie, creating costumes and carving pumpkins.
Fall is my favorite season!

Life With Boys (1)

Only boys can turn finding three flies roaming the house into a full blown hunting expedition - including multiple nerf guns, rapid fire, sneak attacks and karate moves!
It was a sad scenerio for the poor flies but the boys triumphed!
2 down....1 to go!
Ahh...life with boys!

"Fischer"men

It wouldn't be right to move on from summer without mentioning our Fall Salmon fishing. Kyle took a better part of two weeks to go fishing up with the Thomas clan and friends. This is a time of year that Kyle (all of us) look forward to through out the year. Our extended family, the Thomas clan, not only let our Fischer family bombard Camp Chinook but have welcomed friends, fed us, taught us, shared their secret potion...pretty much completely spoiled us! Now if that isn't family, I don't know what is!

Here are a few snapshots from this years adventures:

The boys were so excited to give the fish a bonk.

Lovin life on the boat.

Our catch!I was taught by the masters how to fillet a fish.

Of course the teacher in me couldn't let the opportunity go without taking the boys out to Bonneville Dam and fish hatchery to follow up the fishing season. It was a fantastic field trip - would recommend it! Don't forget to hit the little icecream stand by cascade locks while you are out there!

Welcome to 1st Grade

We have a bit of an announcement this year. We are (drum roll please)....

Homeschooling!

It has been quite a journey that has led us here. After much consideration and prayer, Kyle and I have decided to give it a try. We've collected some great curriculums and have jumped in with two feet. It is fun to take out my fun teacher materials from boxes and put it to work. It's a bonus to have a licensed teacher in the house!

It's a quick trip down the hall to school.





We are off on this grand adventure! Let the learning begin!

Stay tuned...good things to come!

Beating the Habit

A neighbor stopped by today and we chatted at the door for ten minutes. Who knew how productive a 3 year old can be in ten minutes when you take:
3 SEALED packages of gum
1 gum chewing obsessed preschooler
and a distracted mom...
Here is the damage


All three packages skillfully opened and dismantled through out my car
5 pieces of partially chewed gum
another piece shoved quickly into his mouth when he saw me!!

These boys will keep me on my toes! Although to his credit, he is trying to break a nasty binki habit and a little gum chewing has proven to fill the void during a sensitive transition time! ;)

So instead of getting pictures that look like this:


We are starting to get more pictures that look like this:


Keep at it little man! We love the smile! Just take it easy on the gum!
