Some Fun Websites.....

Here is a link to some great Fun Songs for the kids to sing & dance to. That's one of the things we are up to this morning. They also love to play games at PBS Kids.

Outdoor Fun......
Today was such a nice day. We took the kids up to the Lapacek's Orchard & then to the Mackenzie Center. The Mackenzie center has some great walking trails out in the woods, which was wonderful and lots of great things for the kids to see. We will definitely be going back to both places again and the best part is they are only about 20 minutes away. Then later in the afternoon the kids headed out in the backyard to have a little fun. I hope we have some more of these days before the snow flies. Here are a few pictures that I got....

Crocheted Hat......
This is a little project that I worked on one evening. I am very happy with how it turned out. I am also working on a shawl for myself that I am hoping turns out. I hope to get it done just in time for the real cold weather.

Cold & Colds......
A couple days ago I was feeling tired and the kids and I were getting stuffy noises. It's now a few days later and I am still tired and wish I could find some energy. My husband told me that from Tuesday on this next week it's suppose to rain, so tomorrow I will have to get outside and mow the grass. I need to pick up leaves and clean up the garden as well. Hopefully it will be the last mowing besides picking up leaves as they fall off the trees. I have to say I am looking forward to winter. I have been knitting & crocheting the last few weeks. I made myself a hat last night to keep me warm during the up coming months. That's about all that's going on around here.

Other Things .....
We brought make a bunch of grapes from my mom. I was able to turn them into grape juice & grape jelly. Yum!!
We also were able to bring back a good amount of wood, which we have stacked in our garage.

It has been nice to be able to build a fire with the cold mornings that we have been having. We even had frost last night.

Our Trip to Grandma & Grandpa's House.....

The cute little cockier spaniel puppies that all the kids loved playing with.

Fun in the big tub!

Noah got into Great Grandma's face cream. This is pretty much the story of Noah these days. Trying to keep up with his messes and the other kids messes just make me tired thinking about it.

Fall Wreath....
Anna has been enjoying Sprout Online. It has a lot of games, but yesterday she found a whole bunch of craft videos. She had a great time looking through them and she decided she wanted to make this wreath. It was a lot of fun and is a great fall craft.






I'm sure we will have many more great crafts to share in the days ahead.

Where does the time go?????
Here are a few picture from when it was a bit warmer outside. It's amazing how cold it is now. It's only been getting up into the 50's for the past few weeks. I found the jump rope that I had as a kid and Anna has been having a blast with it.


Both the kids relaxing in the backyard and enjoying a snack.

The day wore Gabe out and he fell asleep on daddies lap.




I'll have some pictures of our visit to grandma & grandpa's house pretty soon.
