Brielle & the traveling horse

This week Brielle told her teacher we were taking a trip. So then her teacher sent home the school's "traveling horse" and journal, and we learned for the first time what that means. The notebook contains photos and stories about all the places this horse has been with different students! Brielle is excited to add her pages to it soon :)
Here's one photo so far...

Hotel happenings at bedtime

We are taking a weekend getaway at a hotel with a water park. We met up with 3 other families to spend the weekend together.

Here's are some cute photos of how John and Brielle were sleeping last night :). Brielle loves to cuddle!

Sherrill Harvest Days

In October, we went to Sherrill Harvest Days for an afternoon. 

It was our month to host Grandma & Grandpa B, so we brought them along.  They enjoyed looking at the antique tractors and farm equipment.

 Grandpa & Grandma helped John and Brielle hammer their names onto metal tags:
