End of Summer

We have been in a frenzy lately.  We have been trying to be outside as much as possible before the cold inevitably sets in.  Grady is, I think, on one nap a day now.  I am crossing my fingers that it continues to go well as we are able to go a little more with that extra bit of freedom.  And we have been going, going, going to any end of summer fun we can find.

A trip to the lake with our good friends Kris, Nicole and Ryker. 
It was such a fun end of summer weekend although Layla and Grady could have made
it perfect by sleeping just a little bit while we were there!

Another fall...another year of fun trips to the apple orchard. 

Our pool was open until last weekend.  We spent closing day splashing at the pool.

Fishing!  Do you think Layla regretted volunteering to hold the worms on the way to the fishing pond?

Layla's first fish!  It was my first time fishing too. 
I like casting the pole but really don't like feeling the fish struggle on the end of the line...eck!

Thank you to Brody, Kayte and Mason for bringing us to this great fishing spot!



Kite festival

Grady loved having the freedom to run.



Layla and Mason.  I think Mason was showing off his abs here!

Grady really loves playing with Ryker.  They were being silly here, rolling in the grass together.

Happy end of summer!  I am hoping the weather stays nice until Halloween!

It's so fun to see all of the fun things you do as a family, Kristin and Ryan. I can't believe that Kristin has never been fishing before. How did Layla do when the worm had to be put on the hook?! That was always a sad day in our house:>) Love, Georgi
