More Zoo goes BOO!!!!!
















The Zoo goes BOO!!!!!!
















Last night we took a drive to Battle Creek to visit Binder Park Zoo at their annual Zoo goes Boo!





Katie loved the train and enjoyed seeing all the kids in their costumes. We also got to go trick or treating along a cute path with lots of fun charachters and pumpkins and lights. Katie got a kick out of meeting Snow White and had fun cuddling with Daddy on the hayride. It was a perfect fall night for everyone!

More Pumpkin Train fun!
















All Aboard the Pumpkin Train!
















Saturday we decided to do something that we haven't done for oh, about 12 years when Nicole was 2 and that is to ride the Pumpkin Train in Coopersville that runs to Marne and then back again. It was a chilly day, but we were nice and toasty warm on the train. Katie seemed to really enjoy it alot. She loved looking out the windows and enjoyed the fun songs they played and time spent having fun with her two older sister and Mom and Dad of course too. Not much has changed on the train, since the last time we rode it 12 years ago. After the ride was done the kids got to pick out a pumpkin to take home, which was a good thing, seeing how when we got home our pumpkins were smashed by some neighborhood kids. I guess in our hurry to get to the train that morning we didn't notice that during the night someone had done this to alot of the homes in our neighborhood. I am beginning to wonder about Bailey's Grove and Kentwood, it may be time to move to the country!!!!

Maid of the Mist
















Ok, so this is my first day blogging and my blog is all out of order. Live and learn I guess. I will eventually get this right and actually go in order as events happen I promise. But for now I am doing a little catching up and if I could redo it, I would go in order more. Oh, well!!!





Here are some pictures from Niagara Falls and our Maid of the Mist boat ride. It was alot of fun! I highly recommend doing it!!! Just be prepared to get soaked! Yes, they give you these ugly blue ponchos to wear but you will still get drenched, but it is well worth it!!!!

Cassie's first day of Fifth grade
















These were taken heading to the bus stop on Cassie's first day of her last year at Endeavor! Next fall she will move unto Pinewood middle school! I can hardly believe that! They grow up too fast!!

Trip to the Children's museum
















Ok, So my blogs are gonna kinda be out of order at first here. I've got some catching up to do. I wish I could go back about 14 years ago and do one of these for Nicole and Cass, but better late than never I suppose!





A few weeks ago we went to the Children's muesum and had a great time just playing around. The girls especially loved the bubbles!!!!
