Fall Tree

Thank you, Pinterest, for the idea. 
 
We went outside to collect pretty fall leaves and something to make a tree trunk and then set about creating.

Spur of the Moment Wagon Ride

Papa putted down the road one afternoon on his tractor with the wagon in tow offering rides to anyone interested.  As you can imagine, he didn't have to offer but once. Off we went.
 
 (I would have included Grammie in the picture, but she instructed me to keep her out of the pictures, so I tried my best...)

Bathtime



France Park

Last weekend we went to France Park. IT WAS BEATIFUL! We all had a great time! Owen rode his bike around on the trails and Daddy pushed Lilly and Gibson in the stroller.  We saw the waterfall, had a picnic overlooking the quarry, fed the fish in the lake, and went on a little hike.  I see more visits to this wonderfl place in our family's future!
 





 

Sweet caring moment for her little brother.  Lilly was concerned it was too bumpy for Gibson, so she was making sure he was okay.

Fall + Saturday + Gramma and Grampa = Perfect Day

Some friends from church have a stocked pond and offered to let us come fish anytime.  We took them up on the offer a few weekends ago when Gramma and Grampa came down for a visit.  It was a perfect day. Picnic lunch and playing outside with family, couldn't get much better.
 

We bought Owen a fishing pole the night before.  I think he practiced casting incessently from the moment we got it out of the package until we got to the pond.  He thought it was the best thing ever.





 
Our only catch of the day, but it was a BIG one.
 

Grampa took everyone for a quick boat ride before we left.
