Halloween 2013

Halloween was a fun filled day of school parties, trick-or-treating, and pizza. Not to mention a night of fun with our neighborhood buddies.

My little Fireman Before school...

fun party craft-some kind of abstract art.

Jackson's best bud Tate (whom we talk about hourly)

Trick or Treating with Hudson and Ella

Check out Buzz Lightyear! Props to Todd-they only dad who dressed up!

Hope Everyone had a fun Halloween!

October 9th my sister, mom, and Kitty took the kids to the Arboretum for Fall pumpkin pictures and the new children's area. It was a perfect day - not crowded, and great weather. I can't wait to finish exploring the children's area....so much to do and see!

The 3 Amigos!

Just hanging out in the tree house...

The kids got to do a DNA experiment with strawberries...

Here's Mason's strawberry DNA floating on top.

Look closely....you can see DNA on the stick Mason is holding. Pretty cool!

Really-Is this little guy 3?

This was a neat outdoor water feature showing kids how bugs, and animals live. I really can't wait to take Jackson back to the garden. We had so much fun!

Henrietta Creek Apple Orchard

Monday September 30th, we headed out with our friends to the Henrietta Creek Apple Orchard in Roanoke. We learned how apples were grown, saw how they were cleaned, and learned how bees make their sweet honey. Those apples were delicious, not to mention the homemade apple butter.

Happy Fall 2013

We saw how the ladies would 'skin' an apple.

Kendall & Jackson checking out the chickens...

These two loved picking apples...

not to mention eating them....yes I washed it before he ate it.

finding just a few more...

After our tour we had a picnic lunch there on property with our friends. This was such a fun experience for the kids....So glad we have something like this so close to home.

Where Did August Go?

August went by fast and furious...Or so it felt that way. We've had such a fun summer, and so happy Grandma was here to make some memories with us! Brace yourself...lots of photos! ENJOY!

Circus Time!

We've started a tradition. J and Grandma enjoying the show!

Highlight of the Show...Elephants!

Our sweet friends Hayley and Kendall had us over for a weekly swim party!

Now we've been fortunate this summer to attend as many Ranger games as we have, but this week was a rare treat...2 games in one week! Thank you Julie Reeves for the Wednesday night Win!
