Costume Day at Co-op...


Jeremiah keeps telling everyone this year that we do not celebrate Halloween.  I know it is hard for a little kid to understand but we can always play dress up for co-op.

Fire Safety...

 Since October is Fire Safety month, we have managed to go to a few different events on safety with fires and last week in coop, the kids got a talk from one of the dads who is a fireman and wore his whole outfit and let the kids try on his hat and everything.  We are trying to use our school  time strategically and find fun outings.  :)  I am all about the field trips!

The Cabin...

Last weekend we went to a cabin with my family for the weekend in Western Pa.  It was refreshing to be out in the woods.  Other perks to the weekend, lots of family time, 2 evening campfires, a Fall Festival and pumpkin patch and petting zoo, kids swimming in an indoor pool, ski ball and a very gracious Game Room man who gave Lydia a huge stuffed horse which she now sleeps with and a set of Air Force One airplanes.  He was very kind to them.  It was a refreshing time away.

The Long Winter...

So I have been a little behind in the blog.  I just can't seem to keep up with life lately.  :)  Partly, maybe because we are trying to soak up every bit of sun, every falling leaf and every bit of crisp air before winter comes.  This time of year, I just can't sit inside at the computer for long.  Jeremiah and I are listening to The Long Winter by Laura Ingalls Wilder.  We are trying to go through the series and I am really loving listening to the books again.  I have to say I don't think I am ready for a winter like they have in this book.  It sure was a long winter.  I don't think I am cut out for prairie life.  They sure endured a lot and worked hard too!  Still, we are hoping our winter is not as bleak and doesn't have that many blizzards.

Swing...

Earlier in the summer, a lady from our church gave me t his swing and patio furniture and I have to say it has been one of the biggest blessings this summer to sit out underneath it. 
Little blessings!
