TGIF

We're looking forward to a fun Halloween weekend.... Jonah is back to himself after a trip to the ER last week and a bout of pneumonia. He is one strong little boy! I'm posting a few pictures from our evening of Pumpkin carving. There's something really great about carving pumpkins with powertools!

Fall at the Farm

We had a nice weekend at The Farm. The mornings were frosty and cold and the afternoons were sunny and warm with bright blue skies...perfect for watching the color of the leaves changing! Jonah was busy as always exploring his surroundings. We played in a laundry basket, examined pinecones, walked through a corn field, pushed Grandma Mary around in her wheelchair and played quite a bit w/ Mimi and Papa! Thank you for a fun weekend, we'll be moving in at the end of the month - make room!

Piano Lessons

I think Olivia might just be the cutest piano teacher out there...and Jonah agrees!



 

The Pudding Monster!

Jonah tried chocolate pudding for dessert the other night and had a hard time getting it in his mouth....but he sure had fun painting his face!

Apples, Apples, Apples....




Doug, Jonah and I headed out to the country yesterday for a little apple picking. It was the perfect day, warm, bright blue skies and that peace and quiet you only hear way out in the country.

The owners were very kind and offered some information on a 5 acre piece of land with a huge pond that is for sale just down the road....what a dream, it was just beautiful! We could start our own fruit farm!

Anywho, Jonah did a great job of collecting the apples and dropping them in our bag. He ran back and forth until he broke a sweat. He's into climbing on or in anything in sight, so he of course tried sitting with the apples in the paper bag...

If all goes well, we'll have a yummy apple pie this week! mmmmmmm
