2015 Apple Hill Harvest Run.



 The Apple Hill Harvest Run is Camino School's biggest fundraiser, held the first Sunday in November. The proceeds pay for the Garden teacher as well as many other enriching activities for the students. I feel more connected to this race and how it benefits My Little Girls' school because I sit on the PTO board this year and can feel this event's important financial contribution to our budget.
This is the first year all 3 Littles ran the race! Ivy and Grady did the Kid's Fun Run. Because of other responsibilities with the race, I missed Grady's run (sniff, sniff). Tim says he had a fun time until he tripped and fell, banging up both knees pretty good. He still finished and told me after, "I didn't cry." I did see Ivy, she ran with her friend Amani. They were so sweet together and did great. Savannah, her two best girls Wrenna, Gracie and I did the 3.5, it was a beautiful day for a race.

Halloween.

The Little Girls had their Halloween Parade on Friday. Ivy went as Alice In Wonderland and Savannah was Little Red Riding Hood. Grady dressed up too, he was an astronaut.
Ivy's class with their lovely Miss Flynn.
Gracie, Savannah and Wrenna are "too big" to walk in the parade (sniff, sniff) but their teacher still let them dress up and watch the lower grades in all their costume glory.
Ivy says she doesn't like the parade, it makes her uncomfortable with all the people watching and indeed, the look on her face as she marched the blacktop was pathetic.
On Halloween we stopped by Great Grandma and Great Grandpa's house. Shannon, John, Dee Dee, Brandon and baby Finley were there too! Such a treat.
After we went to Gracie's house for a little party and some trick-or-treating.
Grady was really into it this year, his little knock and "Trick or Treat!" were precious. The Little Girls were so happy to be celebrating with their school friends. Sarah and Gary, Gracie's parents, always have a great party in their sweet neighborhood. This year they were such fun as Pedro and Napoleon Dynamite!
