This is actually our first Christmas tree. We weren't very interested in having a tree before we had kids. When Gabe was younger, the house we were in was very small didn't really accomodate a tree well. Made an already cramped living room more cramped. Right now we just have lights and the tree topper. We plan on taking Gabe to pick out some ornaments.

The letter "K" is rescued
Gabe has an alphabet puzzle and at some point we couldn't find the letter K. We thought maybe it got lost in the move last year, but I distinctly remember marveling, when we packed it up, that none of the letters had gotten lost.
But the letter K was M.I.A.
So after all these months, about two weeks ago, Craig decided to check underneath the fridge and lo and behold…
Gabe was very happy to have the letter K back. He pretends to lose and find it again, too. I asked him today what words begin with letter K and he said, "Kite and kick."

Um...just stuff
It's been a while! Here is a link to the latest article I had published in Portland Family Magazine about unschooling. Had some friends over last night who are vegetarian, so I made a vegetable pot pie (a recipe I got from another friend who made it for us right after Zach was born). It was very tasty!
Gabe is going to a birthday party this coming weekend where the theme is, of course, Halloween. He is going to be a pirate. Zach will be a pumpkin (if he tolerates being in the costume). Two years ago, I was Lt. Uhura from Star Trek for Halloween, but this year I just bought some cat ears that blink.
I'll just post a few new photos of the boys.
