No More Snow!!

This is about how we are all feeling around here. Spring should be on its way but we are still getting tons of snow. We are ready for some warm weather to play outside in.

Putting the visitors to work

First Big Snow

 

 

Just in time to put a hitch in some people's travel plans, we got our first big snow of the winter. It didn't end up being as big as they were predicting but it was still probably over 6 inches. LB had a fun time playing in the snow in her new snow pants. They will get a lot of use over the next few months.

Halloween

OmaTute and Popeye

A couple weekends ago, we had a visit from OmaTute and Popeye (those are LB's name for Camberly's parents). On Friday after they arrived, we headed to the zoo and got up close (through the glass) with one of the lions.

What's a trip to visit without a stop at Wegmans?

Saturday we headed out into the fall weather to Stokoe Farms where we had fun walking a corn maze...

visiting the animals...

Riding the train...

Climbing the straw bales...

picking pumpkins and riding a "horse"...

playing in the corn...

Eating cider donuts, going down the slide and taking a hayride.

Sunday was spent at church and relaxing at home. That night LB was so excited to take a bath, she climbed in with her clothes on. (We didn't realize she could get in all by herself.)

The last couple days we enjoyed visiting the bookstore, going to the park, looking at new houses, playing with cars, and just generally enjoying having them visit. When she woke up Wednesday morning and the were gone, LB kept asking for Tute and Popeye. We love you guys. Thanks for visiting.

Visiting "Pacas"

Yesterday we went to an alpaca farm that was having an open house. Little Bird enjoyed watching them eat grass. She very quickly picked up the word for them saying "paca" after only hearing it about two times. None of them were brave enough to get close to the fence so we could pet them (although they would come up and let the owner). And LB scared a couple of them when she would run excitedly to the part of the fence they were standing near. It was a fun little adventure and it was great to have sunny warm weather.
