Soccer Season Comes to an End

Alex had a great soccer season. He has shown a
lot of improvement since August. His team played
in 2 playoff games and then made it to the
championship game. They didn't win the
final game, but they gave it a good try.

Aw Shucks

I'm taking my fourth graders on a field trip to a
farm called Aw Shucks in Monroe so I decided
to preview it with the family.
We roamed around in the corn maze.

We fed the sheep.


Lindsay loved those sheep!


Alex taught Lindsay how to milk a cow.

We went on a tractor ride.
This is Lindsay trying to escape, Alex making
a cheesy smile, and me trying to get a decent
picture with my kids.
Maybe next time.

Roses

The best thing we ever planted were these
rose bushes. They provide color from the spring
to the fall. They are still going strong in
early November.
They apparently taste good too!
