Fall 2008

It has been busy around here again. Tad started a new trial Oct. 1st. We're hoping it will be over in time for trick or treat next week so he can go w/ the boys. It hasn't been as rough of a schedule as last winter. We were able to get down to visit my grandparents before it started. Here are a few pictures of the boys with their great-grandparents MeMaw & PaPaw


The boys love spending their days outside with this crisp autumn weather. It seems all they want to do is go outside. You'll notice the boys are supporting their Buckeye clothes. It was a Saturday and that seems to be typical attire around here. They are hilarious about the Buckeyes. When they are watching the game w/ us they keep cheering "Go Buckeyes" and throw their arms in the air. Now when they are giving highlights on the news or talk about the next week game they catch it on tv and do the same thing. We watch the news at lunch and they crack me up b/c when the football update comes on w/ coach Tressel talking about the upcoming game and practice they start yelling- "Mom- its the Buckeyes. Yes- Go Buckeyes" It was cute the first day,..now it just cracks me up they do it everytime. I guess we're teaching them something.

This past weekend we were able to start the leaf raking process. We just have to get them to the curb and the city takes them from there. That is always a chore in itself. We seem to get more than our share living next to the woods preserve.
The leaf pile was taller than they were. They loved it!!

Tad took down a tree in our backyard. It made for a great stack of firewood we'll be able to use this winter. Here are a few pictures. The boys tying ropes around the tree.
