Christmas Tree Fortress

I have other pictures to post from November and December, but here is a glimpse of our Christmas tree:

To keep the baby from the tree and the tree from the baby.

Fall Walk

Cuties!

Pumpkin Carving

Frisbee Golf, Cheetos, and Pumpkins

Oh, how I love these little boys, and their Abba, too!

 Andrew was ready to drive, not take a family picture. :0

 Cheetos, a rare treat.

 Racing down the lanes of pumpkins.

A Baby of Many Hats

Carter Mountain

Last month we went apple picking at Carter Mountain in Charlottesville (right next to Michie's Tavern and Monticello). The apple cider donuts were tasty.

 We went down a hill and found that the only apples on those trees were up too high.

 So, back up the hill!

 Here we go! These were yummy Granny Smith apples.

Johnny ate on this apple for quite a while.

First Dentist Appointment

Johnny kept biting the dentist's finger and wasn't too keen on the glasses. Otherwise, he did pretty well at his first dental appointment. He talked up a storm while the dentist scraped my teeth...

In the Mix

Peter is just starting to get "in the mix." Here they are playing together.

Great Wolf Lodge

I was very thankful we could spend this time together at the Great Wolf Lodge, as well as enjoy fellowship with other families from our church.

 They practiced their wolf howls for a few days after this.

 Rick went on the Howlin' Tornado with a few others from church. I heard it was quite a ride.

 It took Andrew a long time to try any of the slides, but once he tried this one, he probably went down it thirty times. :)

Off to try it again!
