Field Trip to the Public Library.

What a fun Tuesday!

We went to our local library for story time and craft time and had a blast!

Here are a few pictures from our trip:














A special thank you to the library staff!

You guys rocked! We can't wait to go back next month!

A Fall Photo-shoot.

Fall is definitely in the air.
 
We just love this tree behind the house.
We decided to go play in it's leaves this morning.

How lucky are we to be given
these "gifts" everyday?
By "gifts" I mean trees
 that change colors so beautifully.
A sunset and sunrise every morning.
Beautiful skies and landscape.
 
God must really love us.


Ms Yvonne came today!
We practiced our Trick or Treating Manners!
Always say
Thank You.
 
I also told the kids that Ms Yvonne received an award!
Did you know that she is
Green Forest Chamber of Commerce
PERSON OF THE YEAR!
 
Well deserved.
She has spent years serving in our community.
Something we all should do more of. 
Congratulations!
Ms Yvonne ROCKS!
I am so glad I had my camera handy
when Adria went straight up to
Ms Yvonne for a sweet hug.
This is how much we love her.

 
And last but not least,
a little craft for the upcoming
Halloween Holiday:

 
Halloween Fun Day tomorrow!
What are you dressing up as??
 
Do everything in love.

A Day (or two) at the Park.

Last week we enjoyed a couple
of days at our City Park.
 
I just love our little park!
It is perfect for us.
 
As I sit watching the kids,
I think of how lucky I am
to have this job.
 
I won't lie.
It is quite a job getting them to the park.
10 of them,
with wandering eyes....
and feet.
But once we are there.
It is lovely.




 
We normally see some super cool stuff on our trips.
This week we got to see some BIG digging
equipment over by the loop.
They are working on the new ditch project.
The kids LOVED that!
 
On Friday, we were walking down to the park
just in time to see the trash truck
do it's job on the next street over!
We thought that was so cool!
The men driving the truck recognized
us and honked their horn and flashed their lights.
Made.Our.Day.
It truly is the little things.
 
Now, you may not have heard about the digging
equipment or the trash truck,
but you very well may have heard
about the...
dead cat.
Yes, there was a dead cat.
On the side of the street.
LOTS of questions.
So funny.
RIP kitty.


 
Have I mentioned that
I love this place?

 
Happy Kiddos:













 
On our walk,
we walk right by one of my bestest
friends houses.
Every fall, her trees in her front yard
turn BEAUTIFUL colors.
Since we are talking about Fall,
we decided to keep an eye on these trees.
Every week we will look at them to see how much
they have changed.
There was already a little bit of red! 


 
We are pretty sure the park will become
an every week thing.
Thursdays and Fridays.
As long as the weather cooperates.





 
We hope your week is filled with happiness!
 
For we walk by faith, not by sight...
2 Corinthians 5:7
 
With Love,
Mrs. Melea
