October Outings

A quick week and a gorgeous weekend of fall weather!  We hope everyone is spending time with family and friends!

Sunrise Wednesday morning




On Saturday morning, we met Grandma Collene, Aunt Sally, Uncle Jay, and Auntie Jen in Ithaca at the Farmers Market.  We sampled all sorts of yummy food and picked up seed garlic for planting, grapes, and honey.

Fall Fun

A great week for A^4 with Amy getting to kayak with another friend, a field trip to a pumpkin patch for the 2nd graders, a visit with Grandma Collene on Friday, Apple Festival weekend, a Fairy Festival, AND a birthday party invite for Addie on Sunday!!!  Luckily Amy and the kiddos have Monday off to recover ;)

Ayson raised the most money for his class during the walk-a-thon so his prize was the class pumpkin (from a story book): Bunnicula.  Pictures from the event can be found here - can you spot a glimpse of Addie?  :)

Ayson is now in band and his trumpet arrived on Wednesday :) He has been practicing and can now somewhat play Jaws and Baby Shark :)


Apple Festival weekend means more fun for the kiddos!  Grandma Collene came over Friday night so as to join us at the Apple Festival.
