~Stuckey's Apple Orchard~

We went to Stuckey's Apple Orchard to pick our own apples and then have an apple tasting to see what our favorite apples are to eat!  We had a great time and the kids loved picking their own apples.  We had a lot of fun while we were there too!

The kids are watching apple cider being made in the factory.  I love Alijah's reaction.

Caleb is obsessed with apples and never let one out of his hand from this point on!

He did share though!



This caterpillar slide was a lot of fun!  The apple is still in his hand though.





Notice the apple!

~Matter Park~

Nanae and Alijah came for a visit and we loved spending time with them.  We went to an orchestra concert one morning and then went to a park we had never been to before in Marion called Matter Park!  It was beautiful and a lot of fun!  We will be headed back soon!

Sweet Aylah!

Caleb saying "Cheese"!

Grace, Aylah, Alijah and Caleb love the little pond.

Sweet love!



Alijah and Nanae!  We sure do love you both!

~Airplane~

My mom and Alijah came to visit us and we had such a wonderful time together!  Every minute is so special.  After they flew back to Midland, Aylah decided it was time to create her own plane so she could head south!

Aylah even cut out little windows for the passengers to see out.


Taking flight!

Caleb is trying to board.  I wish I would have taken a picture of all her animals on board.

~International and History Night~

Our homeschool group had their annual International and History Night.  Aylah and her bff Sequoia chose to do a board on Peru, since that is where their daddies went for a mission trip last November.

Sequoia and Aylah are coloring the flag of Peru for their international board.

The girls did a great job and worked very hard!

Sequoia's sister Brooklyn did a very interesting board on the Underground Railroad.

We served Inca Cola from and made a very yummy dessert called Suspiro Limeno to pass out to everyone who wanted a little taste of Peru.

Yummy!

~The Pumpkin Family~

We are so thankful for the creative mind that the Lord has given Aylah.  She is always thinking, always creating and always bringing joy to my life!

~Matter Park~

My mom and I stumbled upon Matter Park in Marion the last time she was here.  Since this was the last day in the 70's this year, we went back today since it was so much fun.  I actually did not take pictures of the kids at the park, but I took some of them playing in the leaves before we left.  



Caleb is never happy when daddy makes him do something, like take a picture.

Although Caleb was really mad he had to take a picture with daddy, he still loves him very much!

Love, love, love my son!

Aylah thought this was so awesome!
