Windmill Farm
These are my crazy little animals: Savannah the horse, Jeffrey the cow, and Sammy the little piggy.
the Super Slide
Young's Dairy Farm/Activity Center
Again this fall, Mark's residency program had an activity day for us at Young's Jersey Dairy. We had a great lunch, played mini-golf, went on the super slide, saw the animals, rode on the kitty tracker train, and the guys even got to hit a few balls at the driving range.
Sammy loved mini-golf. He hit the ball rather than putted. He knew his ball was the yellow ball and stuck to it. He would place his ball next to the whole and hit it in. Then he would exclaim, "I Made It!!!"

Finished Fall Project
So, I had been wanting to do this for a long time. I took down the verticle blinds in my front living room and painted my white walls. It said "waiting room" and felt sterile more than a living room to me before. Now, the room is so much more warm and cozy. It's amazing what a coat of paint can do. Nothing else is new in the room, but it feels so much better. Well, except the new window treatments. I had to replace the totally outdated verticle blinds!
I also painted my entry and hall the same tan color. I actually had to paint all the baseboards and trim around the doors too. Plus, I repainted my front door white. I did the hallway all by myself and then a friend helped me with my living room. This was my fall project and I got it done so fast. Maybe I will think of something else to do.....

Faces Painted and Balloons
We went to an Ortho Program picnic. Sparkles the Clown came and painted the kids faces and made things out of balloons.
Jeffrey got the animal skull.

Savannah had the dotted butterfly done on her face. She really did not want to wash it off later that night in the bath.

Sammy was afraid of the clown at first. He covered his eyes and kept saying "oh no, oh no!" He quickly warmed up to her after she made him a puppy on a leash out of balloons. However, he kept popping everything she would make for him. He soon felt so comfortable around Sparkles the Clown that he would go up to her and tug on her clown skirt so she would make him another balloon creation. Sorry, no pictures of Sparkles. I didn't bring the camera. These are shots taken at home after. I always forget to bring the camera!

Sammy's In Trouble
I was outside mowing the lawn (because I am an awesome wife) on a Saturday, and also because Mark was on home call, and I didn't want him to get all sweaty outside and then get called in. So anyway, the older kids were outside with me, and Mark had one responsiblity to WATCH Sammy. Well, this is what happened........Sammy got into the diaper bag and emptied the travel size powder everywhere. I don't think Sammy had any idea he did anything wrong.
Primary Temple Trip
Our primary had a special temple visit this past month. All the families caravanned down to the Columbus, Ohio temple. We met in the stake center next door and listened to our bishop give a short talk about temples. We went for a walk around the temple and let the children touch the sacred outside marble walls of the temple. Then we learned about the different rooms in the temple back at the church and watched a slideshow of pictures of all the temples around the world.

Wegerzyn Gardens
We discovered this really cool place to take the kids. Wegerzyn Garden Metropark in downtown Dayton. Besides, beautiful gardens, they have this whole kid garden area. We played in the waterfall and rocky creek area, the musical maze, and the sand pit. Sammy loved getting all muddy in the sand pit. We went with great friends and we will go again soon.
My little Sammy is 2 years old now!
