Adirondacks: Tupper Lake
A tributary to the St Lawrence River
Tuesday:
Park time!
Higher, Ayson!
A CUTE picture of Gianna and Ayson!
Wednesday had Daddy and the kids back at soccer and Addie SO wanted to play too! Mommy will be picking up a pair of shin guards for her this week :)
The older boy in yellow (with his hand on Ayson's head) is a "friend" of Ayson's. However, both Mommy and Daddy have witnessed this "friend" be very mean to Ayson and Ayson does not seem to care. We have told Ayson he does not need mean "friends" so we shall see how the year plays out.
On the bright side, look at Addie with the big kids :)
Thursday evening Daddy and the kiddos dinned at the Big Park.
Ayson and a friend (from the summer program) bouncing. Addie is in the background swinging...ugh, Mommy hates when Addie swings from that section of the play set because a metal chain ladder is right under her. SO, if she slipped it would most likely hurt.
On Saturday, the Syracuse 2015 Inflatable Race was held at the Apple Festival grounds and we could see race participants from our house (running on festival grounds). We then had to take a stroll to check the race out. Next year, Mommy wants to run in it!
The race had a free bounce area for the kiddos and our two "party crashers" had a fabulous time:)
Ayson in mid air
Mommy loves this picture :)
On Sunday, we picked apples from our trees so that Daddy could make an apple pie. Ayson was cold so Daddy let him wear his Engineers sweatshirt.
We also harvested our pumpkins...we ended up with 11...not too bad considering the 2 biggest pumpkins rotted before they were ripe.
Making the crust. The kiddos helped every step of the way!
Peeling
Apple pie with their initials!
We told the kids they could not have pie until AFTER dinner. Ayson flew through his dinner and once he was excused from the table, Addie promptly fell asleep :)
She perked right up once Mommy and Daddy told her it was apple pie time!
Both kids thought the pie was awesome! Yay, Daddy!
A bit of Ayson's school work:

Another back to the future picture. From left to right: Ayson and Daddy sitting on the couch in the boys room. Daddy's deer head is above Daddy. Then we have the car with the wire connected to the clock tower.
Yes, Back to the Future. Our Big Guy is obsessed! Mommy ended up buying the movie so that Ayson could watch the movie whenever he wanted.
Left to right: the brown door (the 9 window pane door) between the boys room and the main house, Ayson said the "bubble 7" above the door was a boomerang, below the door, Daddy is sitting on the couch and Ayson is WAY over on the other side of the couch all stretched out), the colorful line is the Christmas tree lights (that are kept up all year long for "ambiance"), and are correctly plugged into the electrical socket that is beneath the TV, the section of yellow lights Ayson stated lost their color (how? He broke them? hmm, they are not broken yet!), the TV is playing Back to the Future (of course) 3 and Marty is the guy on the left side of the screen, then a cave, and the bear that comes out of the cave where the DeLorean is parked is on the right side of the screen. The long black column, after the yellow lights, is the wood stove in the boys room. Mommy forgot to ask what the stuff above the TV was but it is probably the DVD player and the decorations that are on the wall.
A bit of school work that involved listening and thinking
On Friday, the Kindergartners went to Crtiz Farm and had a blast. Mommy was still away for work and was disappointed she could not go with Ayson.
