Fall 'snip-its'..

Loving the fall weather! Here's Mycah and Reece at Umstead Park as we took a Saturday to do a little hiking. Mycah was able to stay with us all weekend as his parents were gone and they had a great time. The picture below was so cool to us because of how close the deer, at Umstead, let us get to them. Clearly they are used to hikers.
Here we are at an Open Gym party. This is Lindsey jumping rope...
Lindsey and her sweet/crazy friends...
This was a chess game like I had never seen before.
Us women thoroughly enjoy "Open Gym". We love talking about our kids, recipes, our winter co-op, and too many things to mention. I think the kids are catching on as to why we had weekly pool parties and now Open Gym. It may not be FOR the kids...
Our kids had a special opportunity to go to a local park and look at Jupiter, the moon and many other things that only a fancy telescope could show them. They met up with two other families from church and had an awesome "star and planet watching" night...
Loving fall and once again loving Umstead Park... Recently went hiking with some friends and ended our time with smores..
Our hike was after a whole week of rain and the kids were thrilled to have water in the creek to play in. Just a week before that it was completely dry.


Our family likes the marshmallows COMPLETELY burnt. I didn't know there was any other way to roast a marshmallow. :)
Pure bliss....
