A boy on the bus told Ella he wants to be her boyfriend... OH MY!! And, other news!

How can this already be happening? Isabella arrived home from school this noon with a mischievous smile and the interesting announcement that Ben on the bus wants to be her boyfriend. We told Ella can't have a boyfriend until she is 16 and to pass that news on to Ben. To this Ella replied, "But, I already have a boyfriend. Trenton is my boyfriend." Trenton, for those who don't recall, is Ella's cousin and he provided us an easy out. Ella is going to tell Ben that she already has a boyfriend. That should cover us for awhile... What's next in this year of kindergarten saga?

Other fun news... Last night we met up with my friend Chris. She used her fancy camera and photography skills to take a few fun fall pics of our family. I don't have the pics to post yet, but Chris has posted a few of the shots on her blog. You can see them by clicking here. Thanks a bunch, Chris!
When I get around to it, I have some fun fire station pictures to post from our trip to the local fire station in honor of National Fire Safety Week. We are a little busy at our house right now, though. Mark and I are prepping for the kids to spend some time with Grandma and Grandpa while we head to New York City for a long weekend. Should be lots of fun for us...and the kids...and Grandma and Grandpa! I am sure Grandma will hold the fort down while we are gone. Isabella is super excited and started makings plans for time with G&G as soon as we told her about the trip. Last night she informed us that Grandma is nicer than we are and lets her get up and have a snack after she goes to bed if she tells Grandma really nice that her tummy is hungry. Maybe Grandma will read this and not be such a push over while we are gone!

It was so beautiful at the park last night that I couldn't resist taking a few pics, too! So to close out this post, here are a few of our snapshots from the park last night. Chris' pictures are fancier so don't forget to check them out!
