what we've been up to lately

Just last weekend we moved into our new home. Pictures and more to come about all of that, but before we moved we were able to make some new memories in Ohio apple picking, pumpkin picking and trick or treating in our new neighborhood. We had a great place to pick apples in Virginia, but we found a place that was pretty good. You can tell that Ollie had a good time to say the least.

Apple and pumpkin flavored donuts were enjoyed by Charlotte.

There was an area with a play-set and Charlotte had fun checking it all out.

A fun shot of Melissa and Ollie in front of the cornstalks.

We were all a little tired after picking apples, but we sure had fun.

A few weeks later we heading to a local place that I used to go to when we I grew up in Ohio to find some pumpkins. Here is Charlotte seeing just how tall she is.

Charlotte and Violet took a quick bathroom break :)

Checking out some baby chickens.

Melissa bought some pumpkin cookies and Charlotte carried it around for about 30 minutes before taking a bite.

An updated shot of the house, just after the driveway was poured.

Charlotte's love for diggers and bobcats has only grown greater. This was a real treat for her as you can see.

I told Charlotte she could paint her pumpkin and so early one morning we did.

We closed on our house on October 31st and because of a downpour, Halloween was pushed to November 1st, so we spent "Halloween" in our new neighborhood. The grandparents came over and Charlotte loved every minute of it.

It has been an exciting summer/fall watching our house come to life. We are ready to start our lives in Ohio in our new home, but more to come on that.
