Halloween


Pumpkin patches mean that Halloween is nearby.  I went as a little teeny weenie mouse while Will went as Luke Skywalker.  Dad wanted to do a family thing where he was Darth Vader and I was Princess Leia.  That wasn't really working for me.

Pumpkin patch


Is this a big pumpkin or am I small?  We picked out the perfect pumpkins for Halloween and even put it all together for a group shot that may make it on this year's Christmas card.

Trains, trains & more trains


Grandpa and Nona came to visit as well this fall.  We visited the Duluth Train Museum which has a very impressive collection of train cars and engines.  One of the most exciting things was a control panel with lots of switches and gauges.  Then we took a very short ride on a caboose where a train robber stopped and boarded the car.  Hence my expression.

Visit from the K's


We had a great visit from the K's this fall.  Their dad was off to Australia for work so they hit the road for Atlanta.  We spent lots of time at the park and visited a nearby dairy farm.  Will volunteered to demonstrate how to milk a cow.  Dad connected with the male turkey.  I think it's that VT connection.

Snack relocated

Normally we have snack at the breakfast table, but a change of scenery is always good.  It made perfect sense to setup a table in the foyer for snack.  See how happy we are.

Nature pics


While we were with Buddy Bear at the Chattahoochee Nature Center, the butterflies paused long enough to have their pictures taken.

Weekend with Buddy Bear


One of our preschool activities is to have the class bear over for a weekend.  I had a dress up party on Friday night followed by a trip to the nature center.  Buddy was a good guest, said "please" and "thank you".  Looking forward to having him back in the spring.

Mmmmm...Oreos

Hold on...I'm savoring this moment.  There is just so much going on here, I don't know where to begin.
