Huge Turtle! She's an oldie, and loves to swim right by the window. The kids love it.
APPLE ORCHARDWe also visited the apple orchards last month. It is a fun family tradition. To get to the honeycrisp apples we needed to take a hay ride up the hill. Ethan and I sat together and he has the cutest little smile.
Amanda on the hayride.
Pickin our favorite apples. We actually picked peaches that day too. They were at the end of their season but plenty to pick and soooo yummy.
TOGETHER TIME
Jared and I had an opportunity a couple of weeks ago to go on some interviews for future jobs. We went without the kids. Grammie watched them while we were able to get away before baby #4 comes. Thanks Grammie! One of the interviews was in MI. Not a bad place to live!
Sunset on Lake Michigan. I could get used to a sunset view like that every night.
Just a picture of one of the state parks on an inland lake.
This one is a shot from our hotel when we went to Oklahoma for an interview. Looks alot like Des Moines!
AUTUMN TIME
Fall is my favorite time of year. Jared was working on Sunday so I took the kids for a walk to gather some fall leaves. It's another tradition that I grew up with as a kid. It was beautiful. The changing colors make me wonder how people can think that there is no God. Do they actually think that the "big bang" or "crystal" theory would create beauty like this. I don't think so.
It had rained all the previous day so the little streams and rivers were full. Makes for a great picture. And someone on the walking trail was kind enough to offer a picture of my beautiful children and I. I am usually the one taking the picture so I am not often photographed with my kids.
