The Perfect Pumpkin

Ella's preschool adventures continue. On this beautiful Autumn morning, her class took a field trip to a local farm. There, they were all able to play on the haystack jungle gym, navigate the hay bail maze, take a hay ride, and enjoy a scrumptious snack. It was a fun filled morning enjoyed by all!

My very happy preschooler.

I was able to come on this adventure with my sweet girl.

Are there any pumpkins left for us?

Ready . . . Set . . . GO!
Several minutes and several pumpkins later, Ella had chosen the perfect ones for her and me.

Home Is Where the Heart Is

Several months ago, our family began a journey. We sold our house, searched long and hard for a new one and here we are!

This is just a quick little tour of some of the vital rooms/spaces of our new home:
First, our living room and dinning room. I'm very happy to get my piano out of the dinning area again (that is where it has been in the two previous places we stayed).
Our lovely kitchen - plenty of room for 2 cooks. : )

The well used family room. My favorite part is the view that is seen while sitting on the couch (see the final picture).

The play room . . . hooray! I don't know who loves this room more, the children or the parents.

The back yard. And yes, the view - aaaahhhhhh.

We are so happy to be somewhere where we all enjoy being home together.
