Columbus Day Weekend

It's hard to believe October is here.  The first month of school flew by, and fortunately both girls are loving their teachers and classmates!  Here are a few of our happenings since our last post:

AWANA started up again and the girls were happy to get back into the fun!  Here are some pics of week 2, where they played some minute-to-win-it challenges!

One of the best parts of the fall season when you are a kid is playing in the leaves and these two are no exception - it was great fun on a sunny Sunday afternoon!

With summer behind us, it's time to do some picking up, throwing out, and organizing.  Here's Claire with an art project from kindergarten she didn't want to let go of, despite it being ripped.  Mommy convinced her if we captured it with a photography we'd always remember it without needing to keep it. 

SUNY Canton Greeks
helped with tattoos

This year the Canton VFW Auxiliary hosted a fall freedom festival and our family helped with the craft/glitter tattoo tent.  The girls had fun participating in the patriotic bike decorating contest, joining in the cake walk over and over again, and visiting the other games and activities at the park.  They were having so much fun we even decided to miss Gymnastics. 










And a few other special things:
