Catching Up

It's been a whirlwind of activity around here lately. With school in full swing, the days are busy, as are the nights, and of course the weekends! There's been a lot going on and I've been slacking with uploading pics, so there's a lot to catch up on.

We celebrated Matthew's birthday with a party in the backyard a few weeks ago.
All his best buds were there.
And he certainly scored in the gifts department!
His favorite - a Cuddleuppet from Auntie Dana.
On non-school days, me and the boys hang out together at our house.
And of course at grandma's house too.
With the weather changing to pleasant fall-like, we've been able to get out of the house more which is nice. Nightly walks around the school yard are becoming the norm.
We've hit up a few local events lately too - including the Field Home Harvest Fair this past weekend where Matthew enjoyed a nice pony ride.
There was fall-craft fun...
...some nice photo ops...
...and Matthew's favorite, bouncy houses and slides!
We've also made our first fall trip to Muscoot Farm this past weekend.
We had to stock up on Matthew's favorite pickles from the farmer's market.
I'm hoping the weather continues it's fall trend (in NY, you never know!). I like being able to end our days like this.
Happy Monday (if there is such a thing!)!

I know all about being busy busy busy, so I'm right there with you. I barely get to read blogs any more, but wanted to pop in, catch up and say hi.
