Possible change...

Hi everyone!
So as you can tell, I have had a hard time keeping up on the blog lately. Honestly, it takes time to upload and organize, etc, the pictures. I really want to keep up the blog because of how long I've been doing it but I'm not sure if I can right now. I have started using Flickr to store my pictures and it takes much less time. So if you would like to see the photos there, email or call me! I will send you the link with a guest pass so you can see the pictures. For right now, this is what I'm going to try to do.

Before the rain...

They say the rain is coming...so I figured we should head to the park before it started! We met our good friends there, and had a nice couple hours playing. Then, about an hour after we got home, down came the rain!

Claire and Norah...when you're a year and a half, a hug is kind of just gently running into each other

Then when we got home, we played on our patio, that has a cover...which is good because it was raining!

Horsey Playdate

Today, we went with our playgroup to one our mommy member's houses. She lives out in the country and has a bunch of animals like horses, turkeys, and chickens. And frogs, apparently. ;) Allie found a little frog and she held him for the rest of the afternoon. Both girls had a blast there, and were tuckered out when we got home. Alice, I may be calling you and asking if we can come back!

And, there we go.

But of course, Allie is a superwoman and never sleeps. ;)

Cheers!

So, every night, sometime during dinner, we all say cheers and "clink" our glasses. Even Claire participates, and most of the time she's the one who starts it. :) Here, they were saying cheers with cookies!

Apples, alpacas, and emus...oh my!

Tis the season for Apple Hill! We went today and had a blast! It was super crowded but that is to be expected for this time of year. We saw a lot of cool animals and of course stocked up on apple stuff...and even some Christmas gifts ;)

Apples! We got this really cool peeler that peels, cores, and slices the apples into a slinky apple! The girls loved the samples!
