Weekend Adventures

Saturday we enjoyed the beautiful October weather by getting Kacy used to the idea of a "big girl bike". She can reach the peddles, though hasn't mastered pedaling itself. But she likes being pushed. She also liked pushing Daddy.

Sunday morning, post-sleepover with John Scot. They were oh-so-thrilled to have me snapping pics during cartoons.

Later Sunday, we met up with Aunt Lacey and Uncle Nate in Chantilly, VA, where they were for a wedding. (At this point, shouldn't they be considered Virginia residents?) We found a fun playground to hang out at. Lacey particularly enjoyed the contraption that she is laying on. We don't know what it's called.




Doing a little rock wall climbing with Uncle Nate. It was even taller than him!

Fall Fun in La Plata

Kacy got dressed in her leopard print best for dinner at the club on Friday night. Yes, those shoes ARE real haircalf. Thanks, DJP. We love samples.

On Saturday, mom and Kacy went to La Plata to visit the Bouets--mom's friend Jean, her parents (Abu and Abuelito) and her nephew, Andrew.
Riding in the wagon with Andrew.
Jumping in Abuelito's trailer.

Waiting for the ice cream truck...calling for the ice cream truck. But the Bouet's street got no ice cream truck love.

On Sunday, we went to a pumpkin patch in La Plata.

Kacy demonstrating how a chicken sounds (and walks).
Chasing chickens....

Petting a sheep....

Andrew led us around the maze. He did a pretty good job!

One, two, three....

...and jump!


Duo jump.

Abuelito picked up a chicken and handed it to Andrew. Kacy of course wanted a turn. Why should she be afraid of a chicken?

Trying for the handoff.
Almost there...
...but the chicken gets dropped.

So Kacy went for try #2, picked the chicken off herself and started walking. As if we had found a new pet. Kacy, the chicken thief.

(No chickens or Kacys were harmed in the making of these photos. These clearly are chickens well-used to being manhandled by people, all in the name of some kernels of corn they get thrown.)

It was another rainy weekend, and we made the best of it. Kacy loves her some popcorn.

She enjoyed playing blocks with Daddy.

She also enjoyed knocking the blocks down.

Yesterday, mom was unpacking boxes of clothes for Kacy from storage and found this kitty cat backpack. She's ready for school!

Not bad for a low key weekend. As you can see, the camera is ALWAYS at the ready.
