Fall is Here!

We have been making the most of the fall weather by getting out to do fun things as often as we can. Last week Emaline and I went to the "Getting Acquainted" picnic at preschool and it was nice. It is so cool to watch her interact with her teachers and the other kids. When I dropped her off last Friday she walked right in to a group of kids and said, "Hey guys! Whatch doing?" I just melted to see her coming out of her shell.









Over the weekend we met a group of friends at Nathaniel Greene park to play and have a BBQ picnic. We were there for almost four hours and the weather went from chilly to almost hot, but it was great. Emaline got to play with several children close to her age and we got to visit with lots of old friends. The next day we went to the Harvest Fest at Rutledge-Wilson Farm Park and that is where these pictures were taken. Emaline got to go on her first hay ride and pony ride. There were bounce houses and other fun things to do too. Emaline opted to have Grandma walk with her on the pony ride so my re-telling of the event is limited, but she had a big smile when she first took off and Grandma said she liked it. The picture of her with a frown is because she saw the camera not necessarily a reflection of her feelings:)

Hope everyone is able to enjoy these crisp fall days before it gets too late!
