Fall fun at Waller mill park!







Some time early September.....Hanging at Fort Fun! A very cool playground we found located in Newport News!






Driving and than hanging at the "Enjoy Life" conference (Sept 21st and 22nd with our buds)...and despite the gnats we had a great time!


Two days later...we meet up with Kat and Blue again at GWL for some great water fun and serious dragon slaying Magi Quest!



Liv and I attend BG's Hollow Scream on its opening weekend....only to be quite disappointed that it didn't hold up to years past frights =( didn't keep us from coming back thru Oct.... though =)


Sept 27th Liv at an Archery event!


Oct. brought new: park days gatherings, Monday girls club, great friends, sleep-overs, and
lots of fun ...... and of course beautiful color!

Summer went by to fast this year!

Here are some summer pics I never got around to posting:

First day of GS camp!

Pool fun....hours of fun...no one cared that it was not on even ground..it was oblong bliss!

Webkinz made a huge resurgence in our house this past summer and many enjoyed a pool dip also!


Just a sampling of my new found skills that kicked into high gear this past summer...got all this and that's 2lb of Smithfield turkey for $6 something!!!


Lex and Liv got into making new dos for their AG dolls...lately they are staring in many of Lex's videos.



We got picked to Host a Wizard of Waverly Place Island Movie House Party it was Magical! The girls are so missing the Disney Channel :**( lately.


Cake we made for the party! We served 'make your own' Hawaiian pizza and tropical smoothies drinks.... great time had by all!
The wand got the most use!
Limbo queen!

Explosive volcano experiments...Wilkes and the girls had fun making and playing with this one!


Busch Gardens...always offered new frills!!!!!
The girls never tire of walking thru the Jack Hanna wildlife exhibits at BG. They now have 6 rehabilitate American bald eagles!
So beautiful!

Seems we dove right into Fall this year! It was a summer filled with adventure and though I'll miss the hotter weather( IE more pool, ocean time less crowds) Fall temps rocks as well! We went to a great Unschooling Conf at Mar-Lu Ridge in Frederick, MD...weather was perfect! The milder temp sans the humidity have made all our park gathering so much nicer...the kids can run and play more without getting overheated. Yeah, time to embrace the wonder of Autumn, specially cause it not something we always get to experience around here!!

Hanging with mom,

Been busy making vids with my AG dolls coming soon to youtube.
