Ah...it's finally September

Our little Blythe is quickly becoming not so little anymore :( She just turned the ripe old age of 5 on Tuesday. She is excited to be 5. Everything now to her is....it's because I am 5 now. :) Such as : I always listen because I am 5 and 5 year olds always listen. (I won't argue with that! I am just glad she is at the always listening age then. HaHa!) and she is stronger, faster and smarter now since she is "5 now". Her whole world changed :) She will be starting school next August and she is very excited for that. We will be doing a lot of Kindgerden preperation over the next year :) I think she is most excited that we are going to take her school shopping. We told her she would get a new outfit for school and she can't wait! (Ah...so it starts!)
Little Miss Brynnlee turned 3 in July. It all happens so fast! She wanted to have a "Fancy Party"...excuse me..."PRETTY Party" for her birthday ever since she saw Tyson in his new suit when he was doing interviews with the Fire Department:) She was so impressed by his suit that she wanted to have a party where he could wear it. SO cute!!! We invited some family over and got all dressed up for a fancy dinner at home. She loved it and so did we. Any excuse to eat steak is a good day for me!!
As most of you know...TYSON got the job at the Peoria Fire Department. He started last week in the "Pre academy" type stuff and his 14 weeks of intense academy starts Tuesday. He gets a 4 day weekend and then...the pain starts. We went to a family orientation last night and they kind of prepared the families of what will be going on. He will be working about 12 hours a day, 5 days a week of INTENSE physical and field training! I am not playing around about the intense part. This last week was even brutal! They had to go down to the salt river one day and do water rescue training. Then they had to go to a pool and jump in with ALL of their gear on. I definatly have respect for my husband going through all of this. It looks and sounds tough!!!
So we will be trying to pamper him when he is home :) We are all happy for him and proud of him. This job is a HUGE deal and he had accomplished a lot (with more to come).
As for me...Momma's Organic Market starts back this month! YAY!!!! I am excited to get it going again and get back into the swing of things. It is a fun and rewarding thing for me and I LOVE working with Emy!!! People say not to work with family...BUT those people don't have Emy as family! She is awesome!!! Couldn't ask for a better "business partner".
We are looking into some sponsorship with Chipotle! And we are hoping Shamrock Farms will be back on board this season too. We have fun new vendors and activities planned for the 09-10 season of M.O.M and can't wait to see how it all unfolds.
Have a great September! I am excited that fall is almost here and it will start to cool down. That means more outside play, laying out and planting a new garden! Whew Hew!
Well, have a great month and I hope to see you at our first market on September 19th (from 9-2)!! :)
