Science Day - 1

The idea is to do fun science experiements - we'll see if it lasts :) Today, we made volcanoes. Sara and Jonas loved it!! I have to say I enjoyed it a lot too! We had to add more Baking Soda and Vinegar to make it work, but it did not disappoing :)

Meeting GG and Aunt Leigh Anne

Jon's Grandma (GG) and Aunt Leigh Anne came from CA for the weekend. We had a great time visiting with them. Callie didn't want to cooperate for photos, though :) They went to Jenny's Farm Stand with Sara, Jonas, and Jon and the rest of his fam on day too.

Botanical Gardens

One of our favorite spots is the A2 Botanical Gardens. They have a children's garden that is a blast! We met Aunt Maria and Mikaela there on a gorgeous fall day and enjoyed exploring. The kids made "soup" out of rocks, mud and water - what fun :) We drew with chalk, threw stones in the stream, and had a yummy picnic. Callie and Tobin had a pretty good time, although, one person informed us that she was told she could find the children's garden by following the crying baby :)

Jenny's Farm Stand Sept.

We went to Jenny's Farm Stand with Aunt Maria, Mikaela, Ms. Sue, TT, and the kids. They enjoyed climbing on the straw maze. Maria had to rescue Jonas from inside one time. The donuts were way too good!! Maria and I were realizing we had added 3 kids to the group since last years trip.

Corn Maze

We went to the corn maze with Uncle Mike, Bethany, Andrew and Gracie. The kids loved all the animals. They weren't too excited about the corn maze part, but did love running around in there. Callie and Tobin slept most of the time. So fun!

It's way more fun to go to the zoo when it's cool out!! We rode the train for the first time and the kids loved it!

First day of School

Sara had her first day of school on Thursday, Sept. 16th. Her response to "how did you like school?": "I loved it! I loved it! I loved it!" And so it continues, she loves it :) She is attending the young 5's program at Paddock. She really enjoys the time there and making new friends.
