Annie & Shel took the hoverdisc out again today & it ended up in a tree. Good thing that one of Shelby's favorite things to do is to climb trees!

When Allison cleaned out her room, she brought a hoverdisc down to the basement, where Annie found it. The kids tried it out in the big parking lot down the street, today.

Cole came home from school today and said "I'm going to play with Hot Wheels"...he hasn't played with them for about 6 years.

Grass....We've been working a lot on getting our grass prepared for Winter - who knew it would be such a pain!

It was so beautiful outside, today, that we decided to go for a walk at Western DuPage Woods forest preserve.

We went to another Tango lesson, tonight. This one was actually harder than the first introductory one, because they backed us up to the beginning & spent more time working on technique.

It was computer repair day at the Olson household today. Eric was looking at Molly's computer when Donna came by to pick hers up (Eric had fixed it earlier in the day).

I happened to be browsing through my pictures today and found this one of Betty and Tabitha - seems like just yesterday that Tabitha was this small! Now, she will soon be ONE!

Eric and Cole bought a webcam and then tested it out with a call to Colorado. We got to talk to and see everyone there including Grandpa (Eric's dad). It was fun.

It was Homecoming/Family weekend at Lake Forest College. So, we went up to visit Vaughn (we haven't seen him in a long time). It was great to see him. He looks good and is doing well.

Hmm....Gianni was the one to taste the watermelon! By the looks of it, he wasn't going to share with Joe! (although, we did sneak a little bite and it was good!)

It was "Partner's day" at the middle school. The parents get to go to school with their children and see what a day at school is like. They had a wax museum in Language Arts. The students had read a biography, wrote a short report and dressed up like the person their biography was about. Can you guess who Cole was?

We picked our watermelon today - it never got any bigger than this ... will see what it tastes like!?

His school does a 'pinwheels for peace' event every year. He was goofing around with his pinwheel while waiting to be picked up today, putting it up on his head like a horn. The other kids started calling him a 'peace-icorn'.

Bryce came with us to Jonamac Orchard today. The clouds looked cool above him as he stood on top of the hay bales

I forgot to take a before picture - I bought some acorn and butternut squash on the side of the road today - Although I don't love it, I make the babies eat it! I do love making it because it smells so good!

Mending books at the library today. This is an old book about Chicago...I wonder why this page gets looked at so much that it is falling out.

Annie helped me to slot Market Day flyers for the classes at Shelby's school today.
