Great Fall Snack!

What do you get when you take a pan of melted caramel...

...and cover a slice of apple on a stick...?

An ooey, gooey yummy snack!!

Pumpkin Patch Family Time

We enjoyed a full day at the pumpkin patch about a little over a week ago. We had absolutely beautiful weather and had so much fun just hanging out as a family.

Corn maze.

Hayrack Ride.

Gourds and Pumpkins Galore!

Jumping Pillow.

Jumping Horses : )

Even Baby Sister was able to enjoy a tractor ride.

Baby Sister loved digging and throwing the corn...didn't last too long before she decided it looked like a nice snack - yuck!

Duck Races!

Strong Big Sister pushing our wheelbarrow of gourds and pumpkins - over 20 pounds.

Yikes! She's Standing!

Baby Sister has been doing this for about a week, but finally caught it on camera. Thinking it won't be long before she is walking! Mommy is not ready for this stage, but know the kids will love her walking around with them.

Lily

Big Brother took this great picture of our dog Lily wearing a John Deere hat.

Full of Smiles

Harvest Time - Sensory Bin

Big Brother and I had a fun time putting together this month's sensory table. Our "Harvest Time" table includes soy beans, grain bins, pumpkins, pears, Fall leaves, acorns, loaders and dump trucks. Big Brother and Big Sister have both been enjoying playing in it.

All Smiles - Love of the Great Outdoors!

Sensory Table

We love our new sensory table. I was able to pick it up for just $10 at a sale. Right now it is full of moon sand, but in a few days I am going to put together a Harvest Sensory Table, full of corn, soybeans, and everything autumn. Will try to remember to post a picture.

God's Creation

Love that we were able to capture a picture of a female ruby-throated hummingbird a couple of weeks back. It happened to be the same day we were focusing on it for our nature study time. We enjoyed running around "chasing", while at the same time trying not to scare it away.

Lot of Laughs

Big Brother just loves to make Baby Sister giggle. They had so much fun with this plastic container.

Dancing Around - Music Time

The kids love dancing around during music time. Love to see what new moves they will come up with.

Big Sister's crazy spinning hair!

Love this picture of Big Brother and Big Sister!

Physical Education

A little bit of hula hoop. The funny thing about this picture is that it appears Big Sister really knows how to use a hula hoop. She just spun it really fast and she spun with it. She keeps practicing however!

   

Our focus right now for PE is basketball. About every three to four weeks we venture into a new sport. Big Brother also does tumbling weekly and you will frequently see him running around outside so definitely a bit of physical education happening in and around the Core home these days.
