The Joy of Fall!

 Playing on Alice's school playground at pick-up time. They love this pirate ship.
 John Deere jacket, stripey underoos, dirty knee, and rain boots. What a boy!
 Flags up ready for the Pope's visit to DC.
 Family science night at Grace's school. We learned binary code with magnets.
 Stethoscopes to learn about heart rate.
 Using detective work to figure out which is oil, water, and alcohol.
 We've been watching this awesome crab spider all week. It looks like a kernal of corn with a smiley face on its back, and stayed at the same spot in our flower bed most of the time. We did some research, and found that it changes colors depending on what it's on, and it doesn't build a web, it just sits on flowers and waits for flying insects. Flying insects love our marigolds, so our spider was able to make a catch!
 Alice likes to make designs.
 On a fun fall-y walk with the family on Friday:)
 Grace's diversity project about her Norwegian heritage.
 All dressed up matching for Grace's very first General Women's Session.

It was a fun date with Grace in the rain!
