Fall Fun

This first set of fall pictures were taken on Saturday when Mark and I went away over night. Our babysitter is a keeper...we go away and get great fall pictures of the kids.

Today we were to go skating but it fell through...so we headed to Waterworks Park and enjoyed the abundance of leaves. Cailyn immediately dumped some leaves on Savannah's head and a leaf fight almost immediately ensued.

Sorry it has been so Long....Facebook is sooo much easier to upload pictures to

So due to demand...I will attempt a quick over view of September. I must warn there is lots. It has taken me at least 2 hours to do this post...I best not wait this long to post again ;o) And so here goes....
Fire Muster Days... The weather was much better than last year. We skipped the parade this year and we watched some of the competitions. We also had the chance to try on some hats and climb on the trucks.

First Day of School... The kids are excited and so was I. Alex is in Grade 2, Carsten is Grade 1 and Savannah thinks she is going to kindergarten. Thinking life will get easier with two in school full time...think again. You'll see more of Jared and Cailyn as I get to babysit them when Sylvia is at work.

Children's Museum... We also got a chance to make it to the children musuem. I think our favourite place was the music room. Sylvia and I couldn't resist getting dressed up and joining the kids on stage. And Kim found herself a finace ;o) We definitely have to go back since we never even made it to the 3rd floor!! Anyone want to come next time???

Run For Joy... Alex decided he wanted to do the Run For Joy. The had to run 1 km out at Fanshawe Park in London. The weather was horrible on the way and thought for sure it wouldbe cancelled but it rained on and off and the kids didn't seem to mind...it made them rather hyper. There were so many kids there and when each race started it sounded like a herd of elephants running by. This was Alex's first race and he came in 86th and there were over a 100 kids racing. I am so proud he finished the race and can't wait to do it all again next year...maybe we can practice for next year.

Farmer Jack's Apple Orchard... We headed out to enjoy the gorgeous fall weather.The girls loved picking apples and lining them up and eating them...and Jared loved the apples too! We met the Felkars out there too!!
You kidding me? This would be to easy.
