Head injury but still having a lot of fun!


I never get enough of cute sleepy kids... And their cat...

A friend of mine had her fourth baby so her other three stayed with us for a couple of days :-)

Sewing monk outfits out of pillow cases for Reformation day


Fun looking slug, apparently called a Leatherleaf



Some build a fort covering the whole playroom and some read a book in the middle...

So it was time to go celebrate Reformation day at our school and the kids were outside to get into the car. When I come outside Marlee is laying on the ground bleeding from his head. He had somehow jumped from the side of the car and fallen into the brick pole next to our drive way.... scary and Alex was not home. I ended up taking Marlee to urgent care and they "glued his head together". We decided to go to the celebration after even if it would be a short visit.

Me and the kids went to a fall festival the day after Marlee's head injury to have some fun. We had a great time. Lots of fun activities and lots of candy.

Gabriel went up, too, but he could not get down.... he did not weigh enough.

Luckily one of the workers was happy to climb up and "pull" him down.

School science and fire station visit

End of October and we keep enjoying the weather and all kinds of  learning moments!

Science project...with a dad who teaches Astro-Physics at Embry-Riddle

Noah's turn to try









Rainbow day at the beach!

Tiny crab...

We went for a visit to the fire station in Flagler with Trail life. How fun!!! When the visit was almost over they got a call and had to leave but I don't think the kids were too sad. It was pretty exciting to see them get ready and leave in a hurry!







And there they go!

Exploring the outdoor, the post office and building Billy

Lots of fun outdoor activities. The yearly camp out by Mill Dam Lake. Wonderful weather but LOTS of mosquitos after sundown....

Can you see Marlee on top of the pole?

And here he dives...

A HUGE banana spider, but my camera did not want to focus on the spider...

Beautiful sunset

Sweetness!
We got to go on a field trip to the post office and look behind the scenes.


And after the post office some of us went to a near by park by the river. The kids really enjoyed catching crabs and using lizards as earrings :-)

The boys enjoy Ninja classes at one of the gymnastics gyms here. Rafael was too small but maybe next year...

We decided to get some more book shelves, of course it had to be IKEA! The boys were so good at helping essemble them!


Everyone could help!


Lizzy supervised our work...

We had a nice visit to our friends out in Antony, FL, who has a farm with chickens and turkeys.
