Family Fun at the Wescott's

Scott's parents went home today. We haven't seen them since last Christmas so we were all really excited for their visit. The kids had such a blast with their grandparents and we are truly blessed to have them visit. Hopefully they are having a quiet ride home. Life with three kids can be crazy!

This past weekend we went camping in Golden Gate State Park. We stayed in a rustic cabin (beds, table and propane heater) instead of tent camping. The evenings are getting cooler here so we thought the cabin would work better for all. We stayed busy hiking and fishing. The kids had a ball playing cards with Grandma and Papa. We never have to take toys camping because the kids have so much fun just searching for rocks and running around the woods. Paige caught her first fish. Unfortunately, as she was reeling it in, it jumped off her line. We all got a quick peek at it before it jumped ship....so we counted it as "caught"! The Aspen trees were beautiful and had mostly all turned. It was a gorgeous fall weekend. Of course, the kids enjoyed hot cocoa and smores around the fire. Who doesn't? On the ride home, we stopped in Golden for a bite to eat and a quick stroll on the river walk.

Alice is still playing soccer. Her games are so fun to watch. I am not sure if she has actually made contact with the ball yet but she is great at chasing it around the field! Last night, in the second period, she got tangled up in a pile of kids and hurt her pinkie finger. She sat out for the rest of the game, in case it was broken. Oh well, sorry Grandma! At least it wasn't too cold :) Enjoy the video...Alice is the one with the bow on her head...of course.

I hope that you all had a nice weekend. If you are reading, please comment and let me know that you are here!
