Teeth, School, and ... Spiders

I'm a big fan of the new tow rope game... I think it surfaced after water skiing this summer.

Em looks old to me....

We found the perfect mom-n-pop apple orchard this year.... no $3 slide rides or stinky animal petting.

Abbie found some beauties this year.

Melia seemed to like the apples highest up...

For those who annually scour your local orchards for the shiniest apples you know the draw of that one that everyone else must have missed.  My face was only 8 inches away from this silver dollar sized behemoth before I realized why those particular apples were untouched...

Informative orchard owners (did you know all know the magic of Snow Sweet?) and a sense of humor.

Long story here, but a short and sweet ending - Abbie lost a tooth!

The obligatory backpack shot as Abbie heads of for here first day of K.

I came home to enjoy the first of many walks to school.  Pregger Katie and been huffing the half mile to and from school (x 2) with stroller every day!

Yes, I carry a big stick at all times.

Perhaps the most beautiful load I've ever seen.  Hmm... just noticing now... wonder how much sand ended up in our a/c?


I dare say the next blog will have big (or rather little) news...?

Looks like you've been having a fun Fall so far. I can't wait to come down. Top pic - looks like Abbie's sweater is getting a little short for her. Might be time for grandma to make a bigger one and this one to pass to Izzie.

Love you guys!
