Birthday Weekend

Charlie turns 4 on Wednesday.  We started celebrating on Saturday!

New wheels!

 Making a wish

 Taylor the cute shark

Komet's Win!

We went to Jarrett's football game this morning.

Sekapps

We went to Sekapp Orchard again (last weekend we were there to get ingredients to can salsa). We rode on the wagon and picked some different kinds of apples.  Charlie also picked a few pears and found a white pumpkin to put by our front door.

Charlie the Fish

Charlie started swimming lessons on Tuesday night.  He loved it!

Fall Festival

We went to Quarry Hill for a little fall fun.

Picking a duck

Pumpkin mini golf

Vikings Win!

We're excited about the new season after watching the game today!

Steam Engine Days

We went to Steam Engine Days in Mabel and stayed at the camper on Saturday night.  It was a perfect weekend!

At the parade...(Charlie loved the pink tractor, of course!)

Charlie jumping in a big hay pile...

First Day!

Charlie was very brave (no tears!) and had a good first day!  He told me he liked playing and making friends.

Getting picked up for school

Getting dropped off from school

Meet the Teacher

We took Charlie to the YMCA in the morning and Bamber Valley in the afternoon to meet his teachers.  He is excited but seems nervous too.  I hope he likes school!

Charlie's Parade

He's a little excited about the Steam Engine Days parade next weekend.  Today he made his own parade complete with the candy he got from the St. Charles parade last weekend.
