Fall Colors
First “Horse” Ride
Adrian loves when the older children have Science Sleuths and he can go on his date with Momma. This afternoon he was able to take his little sister to one of his favorite playgrounds. He also got to take her on her very first bouncy horse ride! While Megan did not enjoy the ride as much as Adrian, she still had fun.
We heard some turkeys, so went exploring. We were not able to find them, but hope to look for them the next time we are at the park.
Fall Photo Shoot Continued
This year, fall is extra pretty! The weather seems a little warmer and the leaves are extra colorful. We have been enjoying getting outside as much as possible.
Fall Photo Shoot
Bonneyville Mill
Bonneyville in fall is beautiful. Yesterday it was especially nice! The weather was cool, but not too cold for a picnic. The leaves were colorful. What a great day for enjoying God’s beauty.
First Leaf Pile
Adrian has been eagerly waiting for enough leaves to fall so we could make a huge leaf pile. Yesterday he asked if he could “break the leaves”. He got his rake out, so I knew what he wanted.
Today he got his wish! It was not a huge pile, but large enough for the kids to all play in it. They “invented” a new game. One child is the guesser and stands between the cars. Then the other three choose one to hide in the leaf pile. One hides in the woods and the other child gets the guesser. The guesser has to guess who is hiding in the leaves. Then they trade places.
When they finished their game, Adrian demolished the leaf pile so they could rake again another day.
Pop Quiz!
So many people wanted to know if all my kids had such dark hair that we decided to let you see for yourself. Can you tell who each baby is?
Just to make it more fun, I have a few of the kids shown twice, one newborn picture and one close to Megan’s age now..but I am not giving any more hints!
Happy Columbus Day!
One of the great things about homeschooling!
I told the kids to check what day it was, when Mark found out, he asked for a white towel. A little later I looked outside and discovered all the kids designing this cool ship! Later, I discovered Mark reading a book about pirates.
Gifts from God
Behold, children are a gift of the LORD, The fruit of the womb is a reward. Psalm 127:3 NASB
Here is the other picture that Allan helped me work on. Allan is a good teacher, I remembered how to most of what he taught me, and learned a few new things on my own. Yes, he is a wonderful gift too!
