Buffalo Roundup

Grandma Pat and Grandpa Jerry asked if we would like to go to the Buffalo Roundup with them in Custer State Park. We said that Kathryn would love to go. She was so excited. She got to spend the afternoon being a big girl with Grandma and Grandpa and Aunt Julie. Here are some pictures she took on her own camera. (Thanks Bobbie, Grandma Pam, and Grandpa Dallas!)

Hiking

For Labor Day weekend we went hiking! We were thinking a nice easy hike around Sylvan Lake sounded like fun so we headed up to Custer State Park. When we got there a few people in our group thought that the Sunday Gulch trail sounded interesting and it was only 2.8 miles, so do-able, right? Well, we all went along so no one was left out and I think maybe the girls and I should have just played on the beach! When the map said Strenous, they were not joking! But, we all made it home, safe and sound. A few in our party waited by the switchbacks on the Needles Highway and we came back and picked them up. We all had a good time even though it was a bit more than we bargained for. The scenery was awesome! Here are a few pictures from our hike!

August?

Where did August go? I am really not quite sure what happened in August. When I look back on the month the whole thing is a blur. I think we went to the pool, the park, the library, grandma's house, VBS, and - well, you get the picture! So, sorry for not blogging in August - we were too busy having fun!

Who has the most hair?

Rachel is in the 1st picture and Kathryn at about the same age is in the 2nd picture.

Well, here's the proof, Rachel definitely has more hair at 17 months than Kathryn did. I was pretty sure but it's hard to remember these kinds of things. I can tell you one thing for sure, Rachel doesn't get to make cookies with Momma nearly as often as Kathryn did :-)
