October already! We are settling into our regular fall routine. We had some great weather last week and even had to pull out the shorts and tank tops again! Didn't last but it was a nice last gasp:-). The last few weeks we've launched some model rockets, had some date nights, saw Brian's aunt Stella who was on town, and yesterday went to Stocker Farms for the Facebook family party. It was a great time! Much better than our pumpkin patch visit last year, so much less crowded! Facebook did really well with this event, we had a great time. Oh I can't forget to mention my project for the past week - staining our banister! Stay tuned for pictures, still have to do one coat of poly so can't post the "after" pictures just yet!
Adam has been very observant looking out the window as we are driving lately. He points out everything he sees: "Oh there's a church!" "Oh there's a park!" "That's a blue house!" I wonder if for all these years he's just been looking out the window and not really noticed what was passing him by, and now he's noticing? It's interesting! Nothing else really new with the kids, Lynsey is having some trouble adjusting to all the homework she's getting but we are figuring it out. I just hate that Elementary School students get homework, even Nathan has been coming home with some homework sheets! I am letting him do them as long as he thinks they are fun but I will not pressure him to do them. Ugh, the joys of having to confront teachers that have different philosophies:-/.
