Some fun things we've been up to this summer and fall...

I know its been a long time since I've been here...things got busy...you know how it is...

Here's some little snaps of some simple and easy fun things we've been doing along the way...

Those cheapie glowsticks you can find at the dollar store or Walmart are always a fun addition to cookouts, trick or treats, whenever...!


Getting our flowerbeds ready for the ensuing fall/winter...Charlie found a little tunnel of foliage that I trimmed up for him to run through.


On Election Night, we decided Sam could squeeze in some math minutes (required for school) by tallying up electoral votes as they occurred - this was so fun and exciting...Here he is at the beginning of the media coverage...



And - I didn't get pictures - but boy, I sure should have! We made chocolate covered bananas for snack yesterday. You can find the chocolate - already in chip form, ready to melt in a microwaveable bowl - in the produce area of Wallyworld (and most other grocery stores). Just pop it in the microwave and melt for a couple of minutes, and let the kids dip (pre-chilled in the freezer until firm) banana chunks into some yummy chocolate - who wouldn't like that?!?!
