CC Club
On Friday, the kids and I went with my Mom and explored the Conservation Club down the road from my parent’s house. When I was growing up, we were there often, exploring and enjoying the paths. Once we went with a friend’s older brother, who took us through some unknown territory, but we usually stuck to our favorite paths.
Friday we discovered that we missed a lot of great spots growing up! Andrea discovered a neat bridge and then she and Mom found a path that took them near the river. We were running short on time, so we could not explore that path, or my favorite one growing up. We plan to visit what we always called the “CC club” again soon. I know it should be the EC -Elkhart Conservation-Club, but I much prefer our childhood mistaken name.

Good Morning!
Soccer!
Fall soccer has started up again. Audrey chose not to play soccer this year. Maybe one day she will race, but for now, she is happy just to run.
Andrea is playing on a traveling U13 team. Most of the girls are from her team last year, but she has a new coach and a few new players. We have watched her new coach and are impressed with what we see. We also like the improvements Andrea is making. The best part though is listening to her giggle and watching her smile while she plays.

Spoiled
On Sunday I took some time just to sit outside and relax. I listened to the children playing and enjoyed the chilly, but beautiful weather. I laughed as the hummingbirds fought over the sugar water. Then I enjoyed a wonderful dinner that Mark and Allan grilled for us.
I am one spoiled girl!
Spider Webs
As Allan left for work, he told me the foggy morning was beautiful. I went out trying to get pictures of the fog, but discovered huge spider webs in the field.
