Saturday at the Farm

Today we visited Hidden Valley Fruit Farm with Paul, Carrie and Sue (a.k.a. Grammy Will). We had perfect fall weather and ate our hearts out with apple cider, hot dogs, and doughnuts...then bought caramel apples, jellies, and other goodies to gorge on later! Sam had his first hay ride and we got to pick out a Sam-sized pumpkin on the way back to the farm.

Sam's pretty excited about getting his first pumpkin, but decided later on that chewing on the stem doesn't feel so great.

Sam and Grammy Will had a great time together!

Wrestling Sam

We enjoyed a nice Sunday off today with Sam. His day started with a wrestling session with his stuffed monkey, Bucky. We think Sam may follow in the tradition of his nephews Zac and Luke with his wrestling skills!



After getting out some aggression (and a bit of a cry after his head-bump on the floor), we got some culture over at the art show in Hyde Park square with Uncle Paul and Carrie. Sam was much more interested in the dogs walking around than the actual art. Here's a picture of Sam in front of some abstract art...
Athlete or artist? Time will tell. For now, I think he'll stick to wrestling stuffed animals and chasing after Ace and Chloe.
