Chores Galore!

Emily and I participated in Chores Galore where we helped local seniors by doing fall clean up. The kids had a great time and we exhausted (as were the parents) by the time we finished our two assigned yards. The girls did have a bit of fun jumping into a huge leaf pile we made in the first yard (which was HUGE).

Happy Birthday, Paul!!

Happy Birthday to the best dad and husband!

Thies Farm

On cold and gloomy Friday, Emily, Adam and I went to Thies Farm with our neighbor Lulu and her kids - Katie and Nicolas. It was fun, although cold, playing outside in the corn maze and straw structure. Maybe next year it'll be a bit warmer and not so wet!

Adam's field trip to Suson Park

Adam and his class took a field trip to Suson Park - one of St. Louis County's fine county parks! Luckily, Ninny Cindy was here and went too! A good time was had by all playin and looking at the animals at Suson!

Our Fredbird!

To support the St. louis Cardinals in their post season run (which was WAY too short!!!), Adam's class made "Fredbirds" to wear! Too bad the extra support didn't help the Cards this year!

Adam's Fun Weekend

While we were torturing ourselves by running the marathon, Grandma and Grandpa Kreidler were kind enough to watch Adam for us! He had a GREAT time touring the fire station, trying on the gear, and spraying the hose. This kid may be a future fireman!

He also had a great time at Grandma and Grandpa's House! He carved pumpkins with them! Something that his mom and dad and big sister have yet to do with him at home!

Lunch with Nic

The day after we watched Nic performed, we picked him up and took him for a good old American burger at Blueberry Hill. While there, Emily became Nic's youngest interviewer ever! She asked him a series of questions that, hopefully, one day we'll have her post on our blog!
