Fall Fall Fall

Well here in Spokane summer came late and didn't last too long. It was HOT HOT HOT and then all of the sudden it was cool cool cool and getting dark early. It is supposed to warm up again to the upper 80's this week.

This fall is WAY different for our family this year. To start we have football and cheer still going on so we are not really used to having practice on school nights and definitely not 4 nights a week. We are getting by and making it work. Thank goodness I'm only working part time and can get dinner started early and just have to reheat after practice. Tino is in middle school and Sam is now in first grade so we have more homework to help the kids with now. Mya and Sam start religious education tonight and will go till spring, so there is just another thing to add to our plats of things to do and places to be.  And the big change is we now have a teenager in the house (almost two of them). My niece Esprit came to live with us back in July. Her boyfriend Alex lives here in Spokane so he is always there too, which is why I say almost two teenagers living with us. It has been an adjustment for all of us but we are now getting into a grove and things are happening like family life should be. Spree has been a lot of help around the house. She is in the On Track program at the Skill Center and will be doing Running Start I think for Winter Quarter at Spokane Community College.  

Last month the boys had a surprise visit from their mom. They got to meet their youngest brother Blu. She was here for about 10 days and they spent about 7 or 8 of them with her. I was very happy they got to see her after almost 4 years of not seeing her. 

Here are some pictures of the kids on the first day of school. Enjoy your Fall season where ever you are at!!!! The Hernandez Family
