Renee's Dad and younger siblings came up to celebrate a weekend of fall fun in Virginia. We went trick-or-treating Friday night. Travis was Uncle Sam. Renee found an old blue sport coat at good will and made really long red and white striped drawstring pants. We really had fun with Halloween this year!
Saturday afternoon, we went up to Coles Knob Farm and took a "hay" ride over to the apple orchard, picked apples, pressed them in the cider press, and roasted hot dogs and marshmallows. Renee's Aunt, Uncle, and cousins came up from Winston-Salem, North Carolina to join them for Coles Knob fun.
It was a gorgeous, 70 degree fall day both days! That is very unusual for the mountains of Virginia. What great memories!

























Our little Addie is growing like crazy (although still a whopping 11 lbs, but 26" long!), and she's is almost 6 months old. She is developing a dynamic personality full of facial expressions and now laughter. She is rolling just fine, but has not quite figured out the crawl. She and her Dad are working on that, while her beautiful mother is the one that keeps Addie a "happy baby".
