fall activities

its finally feeling a bit more like fall and we are just loving it!! on friday, just before the cooler weather set in, we joined a few friends from jackson's school for some fun at the zoo. we had not been in quite some time, so the kids had a ball. jackson really enjoyed it because his "girlfriend" joined us. yes, i did say girlfriend...he and a sweet little girl in his class are very enamored with one another....too cute, but a little early, no?

the rest of the weekend was consumed by daddy building a wonderful swingset for the kiddos. wow, what an undertaking, but he did manage to finish 95% of it within two days!! due, mostly in part by cooper and wayne's help! thank you guys for all the time and support. thank you nathan for doing so much! today, i took jackson and miss. o to meet emsley at the pumpkin patch..first of many trips there i am sure. here are a few highlights....
