Fall Day

Today was a typical fall day - damp, windy, and cool. It didn't keep us inside. We have to take advantage of every day of semi-nice weather we have this fall. The boys love it outside. On today's agenda: bike riding, car racing, t-ball, and chalk drawing. Love our outside time!

Sunday Morning Cartoons

We go to early church service (8:45 a.m.) but the boys are generally early risers, this morning was no exception. This is where you find them on Saturday and Sunday mornings - snuggled in our bed watching cartoons before we start the day. I love lazy mornings when we don't have any plans...

Jacuzzi Tub

It's a big treat for Ryan and Carter to be able to take a bath in our jacuzzi bathtub. This is how I bribe them to come inside when we are having a bonfire outside - works every time, including last night! At least someone is putting the tub to good use!

Still Blooming in October

I fully expected my rosebush to freeze when we got our first white groundcover last week. Not only did it not freeze, there are 5 roses on it right now! Unbelievable for October!

3D

The boys watched their new movie - Bob's Big Adventure in 3D today. They love wearing the 3D glasses - even Carter leaves them on! We are going to Toy Story 1 and 2 in 3D today in the theater as well - a full day of 3D action for the boys! Good plan for a rainy fall day!

Grandpa

Ryan was the Prayer Person at Preschool today. This was his prayer:

Dear Jesus,

Thank you for my 4 wheeler.
Thank you for my Grandpa and thank you Jesus for letting me wrestle with him. (I like wrestling him).
Thank you God and thank you for everything.

Amen.

That about sums up what he thinks of his Grandpa! :) Love you, Dad!!!

Attempt

We attempted to take photos in the woods today, but we were up against numerous obstacles... #1 Mother Nature - it started to rain right when we arrived. #2 Falling acorns and sticks made it dangerous in the woods. #3 Injured children - (see #2) plus falling while running or climbing over logs didn't help. #4 Lost Child - when I was taking pictures of Carter, Ryan decided to go back to the truck (unbeknownst to me). I was almost reaching panic mode, going up and down the path, calling his name. Eventually he came over the hill, saying "what are you yelling for Mom? I just went back to sit in the truck." Sigh....So, here you go - my attempt at fall photos!
