Family Hike for Papa's Birthday

Today we went for a hike with Grandma Teri and Papa Bob for Papa's birthday.  It was a beautiful day for a hike.  Nice and warm.  Sammie had so much fun exploring the leaves.

Lyman Orchards 2012

Last weekend we visited Lyman Orchards with the Dunshee's.  It was a beautiful fall day.  The sun was shining and we made some great memories.  Sammie & Gabe had lots of fun playing together.

They were a couple of hams for the camera.  Making lots of "cheese" faces. 

 

 

We took a nice walk around the grounds, got some pictures by the duck pond. 

 

 

And some pictures in the pumpkin patch too. 

 

 

 

 

We even got some corn to feed the ducks.  The kids had a great time doing that, even if most of the duck food ended up on the ground at their feet. 

 

Sammie found some sticks to play with. 

And had lots of fun jumping off the rocks. 

It was a wonderful day.

Happy 2nd Birthday Sammie!

Yesterday we celebrated Sammie's 2nd Birthday.  We had her party at Jump-n-Jammin' indoor bounce gym in Bristol.  The kids (and adults) had a great time.
