Science Fair!

Here are a few pictures from the Egg Drop Project!

Go Dog Go

Despite wanting to fit in long, leisurely hikes with the dog on a weekly basis, it doesn't always happen.  Enter Lyndsey from Boulder Doggie Adventures!  I feel so spoiled having her come by and grab Gibson for a fabulous outing.  Here is one of her "pup-date" pictures.  For almost 12 years old, Gib's still got a lot of spunk!

Jumping into Fall

We've had a lovely autumn.  I think it's coming to a screeching halt today with the snow that's moving in, but in the meantime we've been playing the leaves, going on "hikes" (we never get very far), and making batch after batch of applesauce from the apples we picked from our neighbor's tree.   

Willa picks up Cal

Wide leg jump

"Cal, you try to tackle me..."

Some nights before bedtime, the kids have a last surge of energy and frequently end up jumping on my bed.  This night, Willa wanted to wrestle. 

What a good dog!

Cal and I spent most of this morning collecting squash beetles in the bug catcher.  He took a break to love on Gibby and asked that I take their picture.  Glad I did!

Gibson regularly lets the kids walk him.  We always get comments about "If that was my dog he'd be dragging them down the street!"
