Fall Catch-All 2011

"Fall" began with RAMS FOOTBALL!!!
It was also a time of record-breaking drought and heat-wave... No biggie.

 This is a scrimmage.  Alek has the green shirt hanging out.
 We are tough.  We sweat through it all!
 Tiny bit of complaining.
 And heat-related behavior.
 Then came September.  Same weather situation.  Thus children are forced to have birthday parties after dark.

 Remember Walt's blueberry pie from last year?  Nora's friends were a little weirded out by her choice of pineapple upside down cake.
 But it was still a party!

 Not much complaining!

 Then we got to add a couple of kids to the mix for a couple of days while their mom and dad spent some time at the hospital and presented them with a baby brother!

 It was a crazy couple of days, but fun and well worth it!  Baby Wade is darling.  Even big sis Violet and big bro Colin agree!
 Same heat.  Same drought.  Another sport!  The Lions had a great season this fall! 

 And then the real uniforms were donned and the real games started!
 Tight end.  Special teams. Too cool.
 A good friend moved away.  Miss you, Lainey!

We celebrated a last preschool Halloween party and parade.



Did some general goofing off.


Bought some cool new shoes.

And performed in a cool new choir!

We celebrated a last Thanksgiving at preschool...

And discovered that Blueberry LOVES playing in the hose.

A hose that Walter doesn't like to share.
 Woe! Woe!
 Got it back!


Dinner time!  I'm sure Blueberry loves this.  She's kind of a saint.
