She's a cutie!<br /><br />So...I love Disneyland, too. I grew up in NorCal and we went down there once, sometimes twice, a year! And...me and the hubs love TMBG, as well. T Junior's a little young to like all of the songs, but he appreciates Robot Parade. :) I didn't know they wrote songs for Disney. That's cool.<br /><br />Good luck on your run on Sunday. I don't know much about the Burke-Gilman trail at all, except the name! (Okay, I just looked it up. That looks like a good one.) Another option, if you can't find anything better, might be the Cedar River Trail. I run this one a lot for long runs, but not sure how it would be for a 20-miler. This site http://www.kingcounty.gov/recreation/parks/trails/regionaltrailssystem/cedarriver.aspx says it's only 17.3 miles long and I know that most of that (like 10 miles at least) is along Highway 169, which means it's LOUD. It gets annoying to me and I think for a super long run like yours, that would suck.<br /><br />Also, usually the rain here is not the rain that people imagine. Seattle rain is more like a really light drizzle or even a mist most of the time. So hopefully, that's what we'll get this weekend. :)Kerriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00538129698829932559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155167444174882391.post-50821337146574926082009-11-20T14:26:16.350-08:002009-11-20T14:26:16.350-08:00I agree with Tats...blame the photographers.
I...I agree with Tats...blame the photographers.<br /><br />I'm kinda in a rush because I gotta start dinner, but I will comment on one other thing...<br /><br />There is nothing wrong with looking forward to your child starting school. Isi is excited, but she still has a couple of years to go. While I'm not looking forward to her starting (not that there would be anything wrong...I'm just a nut), SHE is! It will be great for you and the Mrs. to sit and have a "grown-up" breakfast!!!Raoulysgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08656303112052173326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155167444174882391.post-12933957030361214832009-11-20T13:13:33.711-08:002009-11-20T13:13:33.711-08:00Our schoolyear starts early and I love it!

None of the kids seem to care, either.<br /><br />As for the pic, Aiven developed a fake smile too; I think the school pic photographers are to blame.Tattoos and Teething Ringshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07270580320534546202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155167444174882391.post-56886694900000813542009-11-20T11:49:04.550-08:002009-11-20T11:49:04.550-08:00I have given up on school photo's, we don'...I have given up on school photo's, we don't even order them anymore.

Now that they are older and have lots more homework and are involved in more sports I dread the start of school. Summer vacation is my "off" time, no rushing here and there, no helping with homework and studying, just a very relaxing, laid back time. Enjoy it while you can and I envy you all that free time for running and working out!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00082536183912603694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155167444174882391.post-31263383547341770762009-11-20T08:42:49.737-08:002009-11-20T08:42:49.737-08:00I'm not sure what the secret is to getting a g...I'm not sure what the secret is to getting a good school photo. This year I had really low expectations since my son has decided to grow his hair long and donate it to locks of love. He has thick, curly, unruly hair that has long since grown out of a style (if ever he had one) and he never combs it.<br />We got to choose the background colour and for some reason he chose purple. I let him because with his hair it wasn't going to matter anyway. He was supposed to wear his black hoodie for the picture, but he took it off before posing. So he ended up in a RED Sens jersey with a PURPLE background.<br />It was his best picture ever. Go figure.Jephy's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18181281032149171011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155167444174882391.post-13965138196033970592009-11-20T08:01:13.631-08:002009-11-20T08:01:13.631-08:00Lots to comment on today!

Unless you're a teacher, it's the only time in your life you get to have so much time to spend any way you like. Also, in our neck of the woods, early August is usually the hottest, humid time of year. Our schools don't have AC and I think it's hard to pay attention when you're miserably hot and sweaty. <br /><br />Secondly, I don't think it is at all selfish to be looking forward to the days when both girls are in school and you can have time for yourself. I felt that way when my youngest started school. That being said, I still spend the better part of my day with one eye on the clock, calculating how much time I have to do X,Y and/or Z before I have to pick her up from school. That's probably due to my charming OCD personality, though.<br /><br />Thirdly, I wouldn't read too much into Yvie's smile in her school pic. The photographers usually get the kids through the process pretty quickly. It's "smile, click, next", so she may not have been quite ready. It's an adorable picture either way, and her hair looks really cute!<br /><br />Fourthly, can't wait for the return of "Cooking with Yvie"!<br /><br />Lastly, cute song! Not bad for kid friendly!Willoughbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15260987219988824912noreply@blogger.com
