Addison Meets Papa Curt and Evie!

We had a wonderful trip to visit Eric, Chelsea, and Addison. Addison has grown and is definitely more mobile than when we last saw her in July! We arrived in time to meet Chelsea and Addison at the "Y" to watch their Mommy and Me swim class. It was really fun! Grandpa Chris videoed the girls in action and Natalie took some photographs. Addison loves the water and loves to kick her legs!
Back at their house we had as much fun with Addison's assortment of toys as she did!  And Grandpa gave pony rides with the assistance of Natalie.



Whee!  I'm flying!!
Eric and Addison showed us her ball-popper toy and we all thought it was great fun.  In fact, Natalie and Kristin were found playing with it and Addison was nowhere in sight!  Thinking I might have an additional Christmas idea for each of them....

Addison modeled her Halloween costume for us-I wonder if the swim lessons influenced her choice?!
Or, maybe it's because two of her grandpas are lawyers and law school is in her dad's future....

.....Just kidding, none of them fit the "shark" nickname lawyers have acquired...


 Lots of fun play time with the Aunties....


Then we all visited with Papa Curt and Evie-

The cute little threesome!

We also went to Lattin's Cider Mill and Pumpkin Farm and had a great time picking out some pumpkins and tasting yummy hot cider in different flavors.  We also had apple fritters that were out of this world!  A very fun afternoon.

Happy Birthday Sydney! (Yesterday!)

Three years ago Sydney looked like this:

She was the cutest little puppy, and we fell in love with her!
Now she is a beautiful three-year-old!

K-LOVE: Positive, Encouraging Music!

Just wanted to mention that I had a new adventure this morning!  Today was the first day of K-LOVE's pledge drive, and I was on their team to answer the phone and take pledge information!  It was pretty fun - I had calls from NC, TX, AK, NE, OH, LA, and of course, a few from CA! 

What a blessing it was to hear the many praise reports of what God is doing in the lives of His people, and also hear the impact Christian music has had in the lives of people all across the nation! 

So, if you listen to K-LOVE, call in and make a donation or pledge....you may even get to talk to someone you know!
