Camping

We enjoyed the weekend at Deam Lake with family

The 'big' girls started the day at the winery



Then a stop at an abandoned old train


Some sweet treats for the 'little' girls




Then they helped carve pumpkins


Family time by the campfire


A cold night in the tent


The girls loved it!

School Trick or Treat

The student council put on a cute Halloween party for the teacher's kids!


They decorated their classroom doors, dressed up and handed out candy to all the kids as they trick-or-treated through the school.




What a fun night!

Preschool Pumpkin Patch Day!




The girls had their first school field trip to the pumpkin patch



They enjoyed the hayride out to the patch with their principal Miss Lori
Then the search for the perfect pumpkin
The day was filled with fun activities



They even got to do some "real" farm chores



Collecting and cleaning eggs

Collecting and storing the corn

Dropping off the hay bales from the tractor




Shoveling out the animal pens


What a great day with their class - and fun for us to tag along!

Fun Visit!



Papa Nick and Grandma were invited to town to see what his old business has grown into (proud of you Dad) and that meant fun for us!
We loved hanging out being goofy with Papa Nick
And doing crafts with Grandma

They are both such good sports and the girls love them so much!

Cupcake Cuties



The girls were invited to a halloween party for one of their preschool buddies. They had a blast decorating cupcakes and playing with their friends.

Fall Fun!

We have been out enjoying the fall weather!

The leaves are changing and falling and it is lots of fun to jump in them

And get buried in them!



The girls loved playing at Coxhall Gardens

They have all these fun house/store fronts to play in

And the grounds are beautiful

These two goofy statues sure are fun to hang out with!
