Last Apples of the year!

My friend Emily, who has lived in Michigan longer than me, has enjoyed the fruits (read donuts) of our local orchards for years, but had never actually picked her own apples.  Well, we were headed out on our last picking adventure and simply had to take her with us!

 

 

Fall Park Adventures

I'd type more here, but I am typing one handed...The Princess has my other side occupied!

Our budding botanist...We stopped every 15 feet or less to check out interesting dead and dieing plants!

 

 

Cooking with the Crazies!

Yes, we're crazy..Not only did we decide to tackle making an ungodly amount of homemade gnocchi to freeze for later eating, but we let Isaac in on the action!!

He actually did really well and had a lot of fun...We're still eating the fruits of this labor!


 

Well, we're back to blogging...

My apologies for not blogging sooner, but I have a workable plan..I will be updating the blog, complete with photos, every week. I will be staring where I left off in October and update at least one month's worth of fun each week!

Good Times..Great Friends...

Last Saturday, I wasn't working at the Farmer's Market, so we decided to enjoy a morning of soccer with the Crysler family!  Here are some of the highlights!

Auden playing goalie!

Auden's adoring fans!

Nice Save!

Isaac has prime seats!

Eme and her beautiful Mommy!! We love Miss Heather!

See?? I told you we love Miss Heather!


 

 

Field Trip

Isaac went on his first field trip with the pre-school last Friday.  He convinced me to let him ride the bus with his friends, which he greatly enjoyed! I'm just glad he understands that it's a treat and not going to be a regular thing....

 


 

Looking at the cider press!

Hmm...donuts!

These are friends from his class last year. They are in the afternoon class now, since they are moving to Kindy next fall! Isaac really misses them..We're so glad they got to come!

Choo Choo

What's a perfectly good fall season without at least one train ride!

This was at the Clinton Fall Festival. We rode the "motor cars". They had an open car between them. It was fun..random but fun!

 

This would be Esther Rose's favorite way to go anywhere. The girl loves her pocket!

Isaac of course can't wait to get on the train. 


 

Walking the tracks, waiting for it to be time to turn around and head back to the station. They were using the motor cars as a shuttle from a parking area to the festival. Ingenius!

 

He was exhausted!

On her first train ride!!!
