Outings with Addison

Aidan and I still take great joy in assaying forth now and then for an outing with friends. We spend a lot of time with Addison, whose mom has lots of great ideas for fun things to do.

We hit Prairie Park Nature center in September for a great class on spiders. Since that time, Aidan has not been afraid of spiders anymore. It was such a beautiful day, we could not resist a leisurely hike afterward.

One bridge. Two sticks. That's all you really need:


Lucy was along and could not resist:


Mary's Lake. Isn't it beautiful. Readers formerly from Kansas, don't you miss it here? (No chiggers this time of year).


Later in the month we went with the playgroup to Deanna Rose Farms. How neglectful am I that it's been so long since we went that Aidan didn't even remember it?

Here are the boys with a friendly (or is it hungry?) goat:


Aidan with friend Ellie:


New at the petting zoo, you can buy a bottle with milk for $1 and then feed it to the baby goats. You cannot imagine how much Aidan laughed and laughed!
