Grandpa Visits - Part II

Grandpa also lovingly helped out with several projects while he was here. 

Clearing the last tree to connect our path around the property. 

(Great natural playground). :)

Repairing the wobbly coffee table. 

Raking a "few" leaves. We actually filled that Cyclone 15 times!

Grandpa Smith Visits - Part I

Grandpa came to WI for a work conference and then he came north to visit us for a few days. 

G'pa visited our homeschool coop where it was "talk about what you want to be when you grow up" day. Amber...a veterinarian. Brent a construction worker. Clara a gymnast/ballerina. 

We also stopped by Lucas' work. 

And we enjoyed the last of the beautiful fall days. 

Fall Yard Work and Fun

We gave the front flower bed a "face lift" by cutting down some bushes and then laying new stones. In the spring we can add new flowers and yard art.
The kids are learning (and enjoying) being helpers around the house. Lots of yard work to do always!

And we try to have lots of fun too. :)

Amazing to observe the moon this season!
