Vollmer Farm

One of our field trips with our co-op this year was to Vollmer Farm. We loved it! We had a hay ride, visited the bee observatory, played on the back 40 - a kids dream come true outdoor playground, and picked a pumpkin. The best part of all was that Vonda and the girls were going to be here the week of the field trip. It made it that much more fun for them to be able to go with us!


Harrison sure adores Ella Rose!


love the 3





i have to imagine i have this look a lot. the mommy face!


look at her little feet up in the air. this was perfect for Ella Rose! she probably could have jumped all day!

this boys is getting too big WAY too fast!

doesn't this look like fun! corn!



my sweet girl...no dare devil yet. she HATES slides. they just make her cry. :( poor thing!



isn't she precious!

Ell Rose LOVED the sand! truly every kid's favorite thing!












We truly had a wonderful time! I'm SO glad they could be with us!

you're wondering???

what were the kids doing while we were in Hawaii? Mimi always keeps good records of everything with her mad picture taking skills! here is a glimpse into their week with Mimi and Papa










Jackson had a soccer game on Friday. the most hilarious part about this was that Mimi had to take Jackson to the field while Papa took Harrison home to get shoes...that he forgot. it gets better...
Jackson went on out to the field and started playing. they were early mind you. finally, Mimi realized Jackson is the only boy on the team and is beginning to wonder what kind of soccer league we got him involved in. of course, Jackson said it was his coach...he would never be able to pick his coach out of crowd! Mimi decided to ask a lady next to her if she recognized Jackson and if this was the right place for him to be. The lady told her she had never seen him before and this was an all girls team!!! hilarious! he was out there having a ball, making goals and wasn't even on the right team. everyone is so great in this league, no one made him feel bad but as soon as they finished up he was able to go and join his team! too funny! :)





he really did very well at soccer!





she even got a group shot!

see, when Mimi is here you get to do fun stuff like bake a cake and get one whole round for yourself...to decorate...and eat. :)




a trip to the zoo...





walks


and popcorn that you pop on the stove. that was a real treat!


they even took Addison to get her flu shot. talk about incredible grandparents! they are SO good to us and so good to our kids! we love you Mimi and Papa! can't wait to see you again soon!
