Fall Fun!

Corny title for a blog post, no?

Last weekend, John raked and raked in our yard.  This is the first house we've lived in that we didn't build from scratch, and we never lived in any house longer than 5 years, so we've never had this leaf problem that so many of you have.  Well, no longer.  We have at least 4 HUGE trees in our yard and John (because I don't do yard work) has to rake leaves almost year-round for the live oaks.

Anyhoo, David thought it might be fun to play in the leaves.  Ummm, I think he had fun.

I did make him stop for just a moment to pose.  He's so big.  It seems like he's going to college next week.
Katherine was wondering what in the world her brother was having so much fun doing.  She looks puzzled by the whole thing.
John's mom and grandmother came for a visit over the weekend too.  We had great fun as we always do when they come for a visit.  They didn't stay with us, even though we have a shiny new guest room...not that I'm bitter.

I love to get pictures of Katherine and David with them...such a treat.

Here's Katherine with Grandmother Walker.
And David with Grandmother.
Katherine discovered the sweet yumminess of strawberries!  This girl got her mommy's sweet tooth.  She will eat anything sweet...anything.  She's got red all over her face from the strawberries.
A VERY rare picture of John and his mom.  Ummm, you think the Ferguson's all look alike?  Those genes, they are STRONG.  I never had a chance.
We got this horse for David when he was about Katherine's age and he was scared of it for a week.  Katherine - not so much.  She loves it and can really ride a little scary for her mommy.  We do have a video which I'm sure we'll actually post at some point.  For now, enjoy a picture.

David and Katherine got on it together.  She had a death grip on him for most of the time.
Another great picture of my kids & their grandmothers.
Are we blessed or what!?!?!?!
