Fall Fun

We've had a fun, busy fall so far!  The seminary kicked off the new school year with a Narnia themed family festival.  Even though it was almost five weeks ago now, the kids still talk about it.  They usually say "seminary festival.  horse running.  man fall down."  There was a sword fight on horses at the end, which they were fascinated with.  And there were so many bouncy castles there that they got to jump in one for a while with only their little friends from church, almost like we had a private bouncy castle.

At another local family festival they had a petting zoo, which was a hit!

 
Mimi and Poppy came to visit a couple of weeks ago, and that's always so much fun.  We love them!

We went to our first story time at Pottery Barn Kids with some friends.  Did you know that for each child that goes five times you get $10 toward books there?  We're planning to make it a regular activity!

On free museum day, we took the kids to the Slugger Museum and Factory, which they liked even more than we expected them too!

And the highlight of the fall so far has been having our children dedicated to the Lord at church, which was such a special, exciting day.  May God help us to raise them up to love and serve Him all their days!
