In the Woods

Today was a beautiful day.  Sunny and so much cooler.  I love fall and today you could feel fall in the air.  After nap time we decided to take a hike into the woods beside our house.  Before we left we talked about what we might see in the woods.  Max really was hoping to see a turkey.  We saw many of the things we discussed earlier and even discovered a few surprises.  We collected treasures along the way.  It felt good to be outside and do something simple as a family. I have a new lens so I took a bunch of "practice" photos.

Maxton is really good at spotting letter shapes in everyday items.  Today he found an X and a Y.

When we got home me made a "sticky board" to display our treasures.  To make a sticky board just use the sticky side of clear contact paper.  We had to use a little clear tape on some of the heavier pieces.  

 No turkey today, maybe next time.....

First Trip to the Fair

We took Maxton to the Fair on Tuesday.  He loved it.

Max is amazed by Ferris Wheels and was very much looking forward to riding the one pictured above.

He did not meet the height requirement and was kicked out of line.  He managed to NOT have a total meltdown and for that I was one proud momma.  

He rode everything else he qualified for at 37 inches tall.  While he was on the dragon ride the "operator" told me it was in real need of maintenance.  Just what every mother is dying to hear while her two year old is whirling around all by himself on a purple dragon.

We checked out all of the livestock, ate a $40 corndog dinner and watched the Monster Truck Show.

It was awesome, can't wait until next year!
