Arboretum

It's just a beautiful place to walk and enjoy the fresh air. This arboretum is pretty in the fall and I love to go at least once a year and see the leaves.

Lots of Leaves

Mindy, Davis and I spent a late afternoon at the Arboretum. There were still leaves on the ground to shuffle through. We also saw three deer wandering in the park. This is Mindy and Davis gathering leaves. It's impossible to just walk through without touching some of them. Davis loved being at the park and just running forever and ever.

Greenbluff Saturday and Pumpkin Donuts

Dad and I and Mindy took the kids to Greenbluff on a Saturday afternoon. It was the last weekend of the apple festival so there were just tons of people all over and traffic was awful. Anyway, we had a good time, (I think)The kids each picked out a pumpkin and we did the train ride. We went to Harvest House for donuts and Dad was a real trooper to stand in the long line for us. Mindy was a trooper as well in trying to get some pictures of the kids. That's a feat in itself. By the time we left to go home we (the adults) were all tuckered out and ready for a nap.

What a Day

Riding in the wheelbarrow that is suppose to hold all of your pumpkins.

Three Muskateers at Greenbluff

Mindy worked so hard getting this picture. I am sure all of the people around us were entertained for awhile. Anyway, it turned out pretty darn good I think. Thanks Mindy for your patience and expertese.(sp)

Logan's Visit

Kris and Logan have been with us for about a week and what a fun time we are having with them. We are getting acquainted with Logan again and he is a delightful little boy. It took him several days to finally discover that these doors actually open and there are fun and interesting dishes inside. Consequently, we put a lock on them just for safety reasons. I keep the lock handy for that purpose but had not had reason to actually use it until this day. He's such a super kid.

My Three Hats

Logan loves hats and these pictures just prove that. Anything that can fit on the head will do. By the way, the can makes a great drum.

Cartoons and Rockers

Logan loves this little rocking chair. He comes and climbs in and makes himself comfy for a few quick minutes of cartoon time. It's a rocking chair I had when I was about 3 and had been restored by my Dad back in the 80's. Glad we have it for little boys to sit in.
