Open House and Cross Country

A busy week with many evening meetings for Amy, Adam away for work, and cross country meets for Addie. We hope everyone is doing well and enjoying fall!  We are sending good thought to everyone!!

On Thursday evening, Amy and Addie attended the Jr/Sr High open house.  We got to see the robot that Ayson is building.

Addie and two of her friends listening to the math teacher explain the class.

 

Addie ran at the McQuaid Invitational in Rochester (twenty states and two Canadian provinces participate) and she came in 48th out of 270 girls (and received a medal) for the small modified schools.  Great job, Addie!!!

Gorgeous September Weather

We had a gorgeous week of weather!  We hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy and we are sending good thoughts to all.

Ayson's job at Faverolles Gardens ended Sep 5th BUT he is continuing to do landscaping work at neighbors houses.

Painting at Ms Annie and Mr Bob's house.

Ms Annie and Mr Bob invited us over for dinner :)  So we sat on the back porch eating chips and dip and enjoying the beautiful afternoon while Ayson finished his task.  The maple tree leaves are turning orange/red!

Jet got tangled under Stormies leash as we were leaving - silly puppies.

On Friday, Adam took the kiddos to a Drs appointment.  Before the kiddos went back to school, the had lunch at Five Guys!  The kids getting homework done while waiting for their food.

Petting both dogs at the same time :)

On Saturday, Ayson made a pecan pie including a homemade crust :)
