october eight: cousins

cousins, cousins, and more cousins.

the day started out in a big puppy pile.

there was jumping

caramel apple making
and more star wars play.

there was dress-up
and a neighborhood walk with our dog, Annabelle
while playing dress-up.

there were computer games

there was music
an art project
and there was grocery store in the livingroom.

then we were off to the farm.
(our local historic farm-- a regular haunt of ours.)

Which meant:

lunch

tractor rides - for real and for pretend -
daring feats
play

historical journeys

interruptions

explorations

climbing trees

hunting for rats

tree house
and
playhouse play

cow milking for everyone

making friends with ducks and geese

and eating caramel apples.

And finally, to dinner.
Well.
That will do.
