Another Fun Fall Day Outside

Today was another gorgeous fall day. Ruby wanted to take her babies for a walk and Carson wanted to ride his "Pooh-car". He went fast, fast, fast, and she gently strolled her babies. Such a difference between boys and girls!

Ruby was enjoying sitting on this "toadstool", but you can see Carson wanted to get on too. He decided to try and get on top of the other larger one. Eventually he gave up and harassed her till she got off the smaller one. She even tried moving over and sharing it with him, but Carson wanted it all to himself. Lucky for him (and all of us), his sister is mostly easy going and doesn't put up much of a fight. Can't even imagine what life would be like with two Carsons!

Carson's pants were a bit too long today. I rolled up the cuffs, but as he played they came down. You can see that he improvised himself. In the second picture you can see Ruby in the background and she was sad that she had on boots and couldn't roll up her pants too.

Treats after Naptime

I told the kids they could have homemade (healthy) popsicles after they got up from naps, and that was the first thing they asked for (good memories). They loved them.

Gathering Fall Leaves

There are some beautiful trees in front of Kristin and Casey's home, so the kids and I decided to gather some of the leaves in the wheel barrel. "I like the ones that are still on the tree!"

"Let me help you, sis"

Gorgeous Fall Day

It was a glorious day today -- about 70 sunshiny degrees. The kids and I had fun playing in the front. When they saw I put on my sunglasses, they both insisted I get their glasses, too. "Ruby, can grandma help you put the glasses back on?" "No, I can do it myself!"

Cool Dude!

"Let grandma help you Ruby"

"No, I can do it myself!"

"There you go. Thanks for letting grandma help you."

Ruby. What are you Doing?

"I'm Accessorizing!"

(Ruby was putting stickers all over her arm. When Kristin asked her what she was doing, her response surprised us! Kristin says she didn't teach her that word. )

God's Glory In The Morning - 10/12/10

This morning around 7:00 AM I witnessed the most glorious sunrise. Bill gave me a new camera two years ago, but he liked it so much he kept it to use himself! Well, I now have it and I was playing with the settings to capture these different looking shots. I was standing on my deck for about 20 minutes, just shooting and changing the settings.

I thought they were all worthy of sharing. You can click on any of them to enlarge. I posted them in order with the first one being the earliest one I shot.

Enjoy

This next one I captured the flight of some Canadian geese.

The last two shots I caught a very large Coast Guard vessel coming into port.
