Kindergarten Fieldtrip

Alayna's class took a trip to Miller Farms where we got to play and pick lots of fresh crops. We brought home some great produce and had to cook up a stew.

Fall Fun (other October happenings)

 Wow! A Hummer Limo!
At the begining of the month the boys got to go to a birthday party and this was their ride. They were very excited! It was a great party.

We had such warm weather this fall we enjoyed the colors for a long time. And when they did finally drop, one frosty morning, the kids got busy racking and playing in them.

Halloween Fun

No school on 10/31, so we had a family outing to the Swetsville Zoo, outside of Ft. Collins. Interesting thing about this zoo is that it has no living creatures. The animals in the Swetsville Zoo" were all built by Bill Swets an old farmer-- from car parts, farm machinery, and scrap metal. He started building these creatures/sculptures in 1985 and has over 160. Here is some of the fun we captured...





This "bad guy" had a pistol in each hand. Coltin knew what to do.






Home grown pumpkins professionally kid painted. Everitt's on the left, Coltin's on the right. They were supposed to be white seeds we planted.


Halloween is always fun 'cause we get to play dress up!! This year we had a Pirate Coltin, a Spiderman Everitt, a Ladybug Alayna, a little Corbin Frog Prince and Princess! (I couldn't resist) The weather was unusually warm, it was great for Trick or Treating.

Fall in the Mountains




We are so happy we got to enjoy the fall colors this year. The boys got to shoot the BB Gun, of course they enjoyed it, and Coltin is a pretty good shot.
