Fall Field Trip Time...

Yesterday we headed out to 4-D Farm

for a fun field trip. Here are some pictures capturing the memories of the day...

storytime in barn, gigantic slide, petting zoo, corn maze, pumpkin patch, play barn, bouncer, tire tower...

Bo was the squeal leader for the pig with the red bandanna...and porkchop the pig was the winner of the pig races...so Bo got a pig nose as a prize.

playing on the giant spider web...

this farm kitty let the girls carry it around all day...they pretended it was their baby and I think that was there favorite part:-)

getting ready to ride the cow train...

I want to remember...

I always want to remember how you woke from your nap today...

all smiles and giggles and songs

begging to hold that new little brother.

I always want to remember how that smile melts my heart...

I am in awe that God would place you here...

entrusting you to our care.

I Love...

toddler ponytails

and chubby cheeks...

Little Entrepreneurs

Since moving to our new home the boys have started a business.

We live across the road from my grandmother. Her land joins a golf course. The boys have started looking for golf balls in her pasture, washing, bagging, and reselling them.

Start up costs...8.64...for baggies and cleaner

Time involved...about 45 minutes once per week to look for balls

30-45 minutes to wash, sort and bag the balls

Saturday mornings or afternoons in the pasture next to the golf course...

they are happy...I promise...just the sun grins...

initial investment...8.64 and a little time

total profit...56.00

We Are So Proud Of You!

Our New Home...

The last few weeks we have been moving and adjusting to life in our new home.

We moved at the end of July and wanted plenty of time to get moved in and into a new routine before

we added a new baby to the mix. We were doing great with our new routine and even got about 4 weeks of school finished before we took a break for our newest addition.
