I have decided to start a blog for all of our friends and family to keep up with what we are doing. It is now October and we are so excited that Fall is here (never thought I'd say that!), but we are enjoying it.  We started off Fall with a trip to the E.R.!  Claudia LOVES to do gymnastics and was doing yet another carwheel (of course she isn't supposed to do them in the house!) and hit her face right into the corner of the sofa table (ion her left eyebrow), watching her have to get 3 stitches was HORRIBLE, but we survied it and was running all over the house and resumed doing gymnastics the next day!!!  Ughhh!!!  So, to say the least, she was fine and the next day I set up a playdate at MacQueen's Apple Orchard (2 weeks ago), the kids got to pick apples and see how they keep the apples cold and how they make Apple Cider and the best part was the sample of donuts and cider at the end of the tour we all got to enjoy! Also, this past week we had had friends from Greeley, Colorado staying with us.  Bobby, Jonelle and their little ones Lilliana (2) and Caillean (7 mo.).  Having live in friends was great!  We went to the nearby indoor Waterpark last weekend while they were here and that was so much fun! They left Friday. Today, we went to the Apple Butter Festival and met up with the Scott family, the kids had a ton of fun on the kiddie rides and eating all the yummy apple treats.....dumplings, donuts, cider...etc. Clarabelle went on her first "ride"...well, sorta...she went through one of those blow-up obstacle courses, with the help of Lily (she's 8).  :)  She is our little bruiser and desperatley tries to keep up with her big sisters!  We'll see what this week brings....
