Griffin and Gray say they are in a rock band and have a great time being rock stars. It is too cute- Griffin always rocks out on his Little Tykes guitar and Gray pretty much eats the microphone.

Apple Harvest festival
Today we went to the Apple Harvest Festival about 2 hours away from here. It was a gorgeous day and the weather was perfect. The kids did a really good job riding in the car and had a blast at the festival. 
Griffin and Gray LOVED climbing on the river rocks. Of course Griffin did fall in at the end but he handled it well.
A quick pic of Ashby out of her stroller.
After lunch we took the kids to the play area and they had fun jumping in the huge hay stacks.
Gray was very brave sliding off the hay bales.
We tried to get a picture of the 3 kids at the pumpkin patch. This was the best one we got.
Griffin holding his "Ashby girl".
The view from the top of the apple orchard. We walked forever and couldn't find many apples this year.

Gray was DONE. He didn't want to walk anymore and tried crawling through the orchard. We were all spent so we gave up on apples and went home. Maybe we didn't need that many apples anyway. That would mean making applesauce and pie nonstop for the next few days.:)

Italian Festival
On Saturday we briefly went to the Italian Festival here. In the past it has been one of our favorites. This year was not as much fun- first, they moved the location to the raceway so it was much less quaint. And the weather was really bad. It was super windy and got really cold very quickly while we were there. We ate but had a hard time keeping our food from blowing away. Then we went to the children's area for the kids to play. Here are some pics.

Vocab kid
Griffin has always been a kid that likes to use any new word he hears. But lately he has been throwing out some big words. He uses, "hypothesis", almost every day. Got that one from Dinosaur Train. That is a good show. He has also learned paleontologist, herbivore, and Cretaceous. Not sure all of those are even spelled right. But yesterday in the car, he was playing with a treasure chest toy. I hear him talking to himself and saying, "If you want to open, say the magic word". Then he says, "the magic word is symbiotic". Very weird.

Daddy's Little Girl
Ashby seems to have turned a corner over the past few weeks. She had been screaming most of the evening away and waking up a ton at night. Now she is pretty happy to sit on our laps or hang out on her playmat for a few minutes. I think Brent is pretty happy that she is a little cuddlier than before. And she seems to be sleeping through the night...about 12 hours at a time. Here are some pics of her...little Miss Bowhead.
Griffin singing
Here is a quick video of Griffin singing a new favorite song from school. Not sure what the official name of the song is.
