Pinecone hunts, fall frolics, and fun with neighbors

We are trying to take full advantage of these beautiful fall afternoons. I’m not looking forward to the cold weather and sun setting earlier and earlier. So, as soon as Clark wakes up from his afternoon nap we are off exploring and enjoying the beauty of the season. Caroline has been recruiting our neighbors to join us on the lake trail to find beautiful leaves, acorns, and pinecones.

We having been doing a lot of playing with the neighbors, too. We are so very thankful for our neighbors. Bella and Caroline enjoyed pushing each other in Amelia’s back up wheelchair.

Clark was just trying to figure out what those girls were up to._DSC0041_DSC0071_DSC0086

Then Manus came over to play with Clark. Clark was so honored and led him upstairs to show him his train table. (He loves taking your hand and leading you places). He was so excited to be spending time with him that every few minutes he would just smile big and lay his head on Manus’ shoulder.

The girls decided they wanted to race up and down the sidewalks._DSC0138 Hiking the trail

Too bad two of these kiddos don’t belong to me, or I’d use it for my Christmas card. Love these kids._DSC0183_DSC0191_DSC0195

Now Clark is it!! He decided to just play a little soccer instead.
