Connor's Visit Part 1

You've seen the video of our Sunday evening with Connor - my parents came down for pizza and playing, and these three had a ball. 





Connor usually comes to our house around holidays, and that doesn't afford too much playing time. His requests on Sunday night before bed were "vaccuming" and "playing downstairs".  Easy peasy! That's what we did on Monday...









Monday night we had dinner and then went to my parents church to play.  Connor got a little over-heated that night, so Tuesday we made sure he kept cool: 

The next popular request was "go to the dancing library"....which means, he wanted to go to a class at our library.  He didn't dance....

but he did have fun at the train table!


Wednesday morning we went to church for my Bible Study, and then later in the evening, Connor was reunited with his Mom!! :) 

We've been talking about doing this since the spring, and Wednesday night it happened: Going to see Mrs. J.'s horse.  We didn't know how it would go, but we kept telling the kids that the horse was "as big as the van" :) 

Chloe and me meeting Strough (not the one we rode)


April meeting Tex (the one we rode)

So, we were brave! Everyone rode the horse!!




and, then everyone rode BY THEMSELVES. The parents couldn't believe it :)  Neither could the kids :)





Also, there were chickens.  Who liked to eat clover.  And little children who don't care how hot it is and run around like crazy ;)


Connor's Visit Part 2 (including birthdays!) coming soon!!

Camping Trips #2 and #3

At the beginning of August, we went on a camping trip with my immediate family. We had great campsites, right next to each other, and had fabulous weather. Chloe had a great time hanging out with her Aunt Laura, Uncle Bill, and Aunt Michelle: She also loved my dad's cell phone ringtone: Who says you can't eat great food while you're camping? Check out our dinner feast on Saturday night....Corn on the cob, cheeseburgers, grilled pineapple: Chloe had her first taste of the "beach" when we went to the lake one day. It was the first time she was in the sand, and I think she really liked it! When looking back at the camping pictures, I realized that Chloe wore a lot of hats on this trip: We got back from a Cousins Camping Trip on Sunday night. (Almost) All my cousins got together for the weekend and we had a great time. Another camping trip with good campsites and this time we just had okay weather. It rained Saturday night so everything was a bit soggy on Sunday ...

I hope he's not moving in....
