Rainy and lazy fall weekend

This weekend we ran some errands but mostly enjoyed the comforts of home. The girls like to sleep in and wake up slowly... we often hear them talking and giggling in the mornings and this is what we see when we walk in!

The girls were delighted to see their raincoats from last year and we were delighted that they still fit!

Lauren playing with the coveted swing toy which has precipitated many disagreements.

Emily skillfully playing with my IPhone.

The girls like to use the flashcard program and will often request "Cards! Cards!"

Smith Berry Barn Heirloom Apple Festival

This weekend we went to the heirloom apple festival at the Smith Berry Barn. The girls love to eat fruits and enjoyed sampling the tasty apples and pears!

Strolling around the farm grounds with Dad... we've had some beautiful fall weather this week!

Lauren (left) and Emily (right) having fun with their witches' hats. The girls love Halloween... their favorite books are Halloween books which are read all year round at our house!

The little witches are serious when it comes to puzzles.

Lauren feeling glamorous! The scratch on her nose is from a recent run in with the coffee table.

Baggenstos Farm Pumpkin Patch

This week the girls visited the Baggenstos Farm pumpkin patch with their friend Gavin! Here they are enjoying the play structure... Lauren is on the upper level and Emily is following Gavin up the slide.

Checking out the goat! Gavin did a crazy dance to make the goat stand up and walk around.

Eagerly awaiting for the hay ride to begin! From left to right: Gavin, Emily, and Lauren.

So many pumpkins to enjoy!

Saturday night fun with the Kims!

Melissa, Kyu, and Gavin came over for dinner this weekend and we had a great time together! The girls were delighted to receive Halloween gift bags... here is Emily (left) and Lauren (right) enjoying their new Halloween bows, socks, and other assorted treats.
