Visiting Grandma and Grandpa





Since before Marley was born Ellie and Ethan have been begging to go to Grandma and Grandpa's house and stay the night. So we finally made a trip down and we only where able to stay one night but we stayed busy the whole time. The kids love going there and are already looking forward to our next visit. Ethan also keeps asking to go and see Jedda their dog. I think he is in love with that dog. I am so grateful that my parents love having us come. My Dad takes the kids on rides in the Rhino and they love it. Mom thanks for helping me to be an even better person. We love spending time with you!

Picking Apples




We were able to go to an apple orchard while at my parents. It was so much fun to pick apples with the kids. Now that I am home I wish I had picked even more than I did. I made an apple crisp last night that was so wonderful. The kids really enjoyed picking the apples off the tree. We are most definitely doing this again next year and I will be getting even more apples.

Salsa Festival











We went to the Salsa Festival down at my parents house. We were able to taste some really great salsa. My favorite was a green salsa that had pineapple in it. They had hot air balloons the night before lighting up the street. It was really fun. The kids loved it. There was a man giving rides in a little train. We told the kids yes and had the in before he told us it was $4.00 a piece. Yikes, but look at Ethan's face it was well worth the cost just to see that smile.
