Wonderful Weekends, the fall edition

Second Sunday Soup is off to a warm and wonderful start.  12 adults and 8 littles under the age of 4 were served this evening, al fresco, with candles and decorative gourds and lots of bug spray to combat the hordes of rabid mosquitoes that infest our yard.  But no matter.  The candles glowed and the soup was perfect and a grand crowd of little girls dashed about in little skirts and our boy led them all in a dance party under the pergola-- no music needed, just the enthusiasm of toddlers and preschoolers as they stomped and spun and crashed and twirled under the rainbow windsock.

Looking forward to a season of warmth and friendship.

Even if we have to move it indoors in November.



Today also brought me two wonderful outings into the wonderful day, just me and my wonderful children-- playing at the Science center and then a walk around the pond at Wade Oval.   The sun was warm-- bordering on hot-- and my children were enthusiastic, about the ball pit and the water works and feeding the fish and throwing stones.  It was perfect-- and tonight, I am very tired. :)
