Fall festival

Last weekend, we headed to a big fall festival. There were lots of slides, and animals, and things to see. And the weather was beautiful as well!

Checking out the cows with Dada


Heading down the volcano slide...


Cooper was not a big fan of this slide.


So off we went to the smaller frog slide...


Which was a big hit!


Then we stopped to eat an apple.


Crunch!


After that, we played in a "corn" box


Horsing around with Dada and eating popcorn


Checking out the pigs


Oink, oink!

An attempt at a picture with Dada...


And one with Mama.


Oh well, better luck next time!

Labor Day!

Grandma G, now known as "G.G.", and Pop Pop came in for a quick visit over Labor Day. We spent lots of time together - some of it working, some of it playing.

And cheese time...




A new haircut for Cooper...


And one for Mama too!

And we're back!

Sorry for the month-long picture drought - Mama's been "sick". Recovering from a tonsillectomy is no fun! But we're slowly getting back to normal, and life has gone on. Here is what some of us have been doing in August.

Throwing tantrums...yes, we're approaching 2


Building toilet paper towers


Enjoying the ball-shooting sprinkler




Showing off our drawing skills to Aunt Jodi


One cool dude!


Showing my car to Grandma

Cheese! Our attempts at pictures with a squirmy Cooper






Playing with my trains - thanks again, Ben and Jason!


Pointing out the "o" in Mama's "Get well soon" balloon


Stacking rings with Grandma


Watching Elmo on the laptop




Thanks Grandma and Pop-pop for playing with me while Mama was sick!

We did finally all leave the house, to visit Clare and Jim's new house and community pool.
Climbing the stairs


Blowing bubbles in the kiddie pool

Splash!


Hope you all had a happy August!!!
