Fall Fun

We had beautiful Fall weather this weekend.  We enjoyed some time outside on Sunday playing in the leaves and soaking up the sunshine.
We also had fun over the weekend visiting with Grandpa and Grandma Voogt.  They came on Friday and left on Saturday.  As usual Rebecca was glued to Grandma's side from the moment she walked in the door.  After dinner Rebecca took Grandma upstairs, and we hardly saw them the rest of the evening :)  It was nice to be able to celebrate Grandpa's birthday with him.  We gave him his presents and had some yummy pumpkin spice cake on Friday.  It was a short visit, but we all had a good time.  And now we get to enjoy lots of delicious apples and squash from Grandpa's farm!
Both Rebecca and Abram are getting over minor colds, but that doesn't keep them down.  They are busy, busy.  Abram is now rolling all over the place and doesn't like to stay put.  He is growing like a weed as usual, weighing about 19 1/2 lbs. now at 5 months old.  Rebecca continues to enjoy her daily school work and projects and is learning a lot.  She is very creative and imaginative and so much fun to watch.  She is also extremely curious.  The number of times she asks why in a day is sometimes a bit much.  But we like that she wants to learn and understand things.
We have another fun week ahead with Kindermusik, a visit to Grassfield's Farm, a trip to the children's museum, MOPS and a family outing to Koetsier's greenhouse to check out their maze, pumpkin decorating, snacks and other fall fun.

It was a perfect day for playing in the leaves. So fun!

Glad you guys had a good visit with your in-laws. That is too cute that Rebecca disappeared for so long w/ her grandma to play.
