Natalie, Kate, Cole, Sawyer and I braved the frigid and windy morning to beat the crowds at the annual Apple Fest in South Hero. The boys enjoyed pony rides, fire trucks and lots of other kid friendly activities. We were sad daddy had to work, but stopped by Hacket's Orchard to pick up a favorite fall treat...cider donuts...yum, yum! Natty and I found a great thrift sale where we both found lots of great kids clothes for a dollar a piece...I love a bargain!

Preschool Open House!

Bulletin board at school with name and picture...should I be worried to have found this picture of Cole??? Looking like a wise guy.

Fun projects at the Open House!

Isham Family Farm

Where else but in Vermont can you buy a pumpkin for $5 for a large, $3 for a medium and $1 for a small...honor system coffee can for payments! Ken and I discovered this farms pumpkin deals several years ago and have been loyal customers ever since!

Mazza's Fall Festival

Another beautiful Fall weekend in Vermont and another fun Fall Festival...today at Mazza's in Colchester, Vermont. We brought Christopher with us to pal around with Cole and give Keith and Elizabeth some time with the new baby. The boys had a blast on the hayride to the pumpkin patch, pony rides, jumping house and picnic.

My little Dishwasher!

Sawyer is keeping us on our toes these days and one of the easiest ways to keep him entertained for the longest periods of time is letting him play with the water in the kitchen sink. He can keep himself busy long enough for me to whip together something edible for dinner.

All Boy!

You just never know what Sawyer will do next...here I found him riding on his little toy John Deere tractor as proud as can be!
