September was full of lots of activities starting back up - school, sports, small group, bible study, etc. On one particular Friday Bonnie did not have school but Riser did. It was fun to get a little date with her in the morning. We went for a walk, perused around Claire's, then got California Tortilla for lunch.
We've had some rainy fort days.
The kids even made a haunted fort in anticipation for spooky season. They had spooky music playing, cut out bats, black cats, creepy dolls, and they would pop in from behind the blanket to scare us when we were inside.
We paid another visit to the Home Depot workshop. You can see they get good use out of those aprons.
We continued to enjoy the warm weather by taking the boat out.
Riser's school has posted lots of fun pictures of their daily activities.
Bonnie decorated her waffle to look like her stuffed bear.
Eric and Riser have been having lots of fun playing soldiers. They both get into it.
Bonnie's class released a butterfly.
Just a picture looking into our future.
We don't get as many pictures of Bonnie's class.
Riser caught a lizard on a walk one day. I was impressed - it was very fast.
Bonnie's school photo from last year made it on the poster for this year's school photos hanging in their hallway.
Riser is producing a far more art this year than in the past.
We went to a literacy night at Bonnie's school that was NASA themed.
Mom started teaching Bonnie the beginning steps of crocheting.
A storm brought in quite a bit of water in our neighborhood.
We pulled out the Halloween supplies. Bonnie is testing out a few different costume ideas.
The kids got haircuts. Bonnie finally got her bangs back that she's been asking for all summer.
Riser's hair ended up a little shorter than I planned, he's looking a little too grown up for my taste.
We spent some time with our neighbors watching football and playing in the backyard.
Riser's first time trying pudding.
As much as I love summer, it's always fun to welcome a new season. Happy Fall!
