Fall Continued

Benjamin made some super cute crafts at preschool for Halloween and Fall. They wore their costumes to school, and of course, he wanted to be an Angry Bird again this year.

We went to a friend’s house for a pre-Halloween party. I dressed the kids in some costumes a friend sent us from China. Abby was obsessed with a play stroller, and wouldn’t pose for photos without it.

Jeremy took the kids to a fall festival while I was working on a freelance project one Saturday.

Moving on to November, we had a turkey/fall themed Recharge! meeting, and it included pin the tail on the turkey, and pumpkin curling…notice the brooms. We also had pumpkin bowling, turkey ball relays and a really cook wreath of thankfulness craft.

Fall

Better late than never, here are photos from October of Benjamin and Abby. I can’t believe I got so far behind!

Jeremy took the two kids to the Renaissance Festival while I attended a women’s retreat a few weeks ago. They had a lot of fun, and for weeks, Benjamin asked everyone he met if they went too.

Benjamin and Abby got to meet Curious George at the library, and they thought that was super cool. It melted my heart to see Benjamin throw his arms around his most favorite book and television character of all time. I think Curious George even beats out Thomas.

Benjamin’s preschool class went on a farm tour, and Benjamin got to feed a cow and a donkey. Then, we picked out a pumpkin, which we later baked into our pumpkin bread.

The kids helped us rake leaves one day. It seems like Fall happened so quickly, the leaves fell and then there was snow! We didn’t get much of a chance to enjoy them.

We roasted marshmallows at the Ellis family’s house.

We had an ooey gooey mad science program for Recharge! this month. I demonstrated color changing, and Jeremy blew up a 2-liter of pop using Mentos.

We went to the Bluffton Fall Festival too. Benjamin spent time with Great Grandma Hilty, Grandpa Hilty, Papa and Grandma Jan!

It appears I am going to have to switch computers to find the rest of my photos. So, to be continued.
