All the leaves are dancing....

Fall is here and we are loving it! In the past couple weeks we've had a great time with more soccer and football. John was off Friday and we had a great time at a local farm with a corn maze. Sunday was our annual walk with Kids for the Cure. Once again Cole did a great job walking with his friends (and 32,000 others) to support the cause. This week we're gearing up for the World Series (go Phillies), putting the final touches on our Halloween costumes - David Ortiz (Red Sox) and a ballerina (for now...), and getting ready for cooler weather. Enjoy!!!

The "good game" parade. We're the Redskins this year!!!


One of our favorite pasttimes -- doing a search-and-find puzzle together.

This is how you know they are city kids. Shriveled up ears of corn generate excitement.


Make up your own caption on this one!!!

Mile 1!


This is just a ridiculous series of pictures -- but I thought you'd enjoy getting a glimpse of what life is really like around here. This is what happened during the Penn State game Saturday. And, if you're wondering, it's chocolate on her face...























A bonus video for all those with the patience to make it to the end of this blog entry!!!

Horses and History!

We've had a couple of fun weeks here. Two weekends ago Cole and Dad went to the Terps game and the girls had our annual outing to the Grand Prix to see the horses. It was a great day.

This last weekend was a wash out -- all games were cancelled. We did have a nice visit to see Stuart, Marcy, Jack and Lily on Saturday night -- but no pics. Sorry!

Yesterday we enjoyed a family outing to Mt. Vernon. The kids seemed to really enjoy it! Enjoy the pics!

The hounds are always an intermission favorite.

YIKES - way to bright for a picture with eyes open!

The end of the day and we're getting goofy now...

Bunnies enjoying the gardens...
