Pumpking Works 2010

Monday, we went to one of our favorite fall activities. About 20minutes from T.H is a place called Pumpkin Works. Here they have corn mazes, hay rides, and all kinds of inside mazes. There are many activities for the kids to enjoy and have fun in at, both scary and non scary. There were to many pictures to choose from so here is a slideshow of how much fun we had.

First Baptist Preschool


Well as I stated back in August, Savannah is now an official
Terre Haute First Baptist Preschooler. We thought this would be a hard transition for her since it is early in the morning, but we have had no problems. She now wakes up daily before 9:00 am, which is not always good for mommy and daddy, but we will take it. She absolutely loves preschool and has already learned lots. She comes home with something new every Tuesday and Thursday. Last Thursday, I had the opportunity to go on a field trip with the class and see how Savannah acts and handles things while in school. When I first arrived, Savannah didn't see me enter the room, which I was glad. I got to see her reactions and actions towards Miss Dawn and how she does follow instructions. When Savannah did spot me at the door, she stood up and loudly stated, Hey that's my mommy at the door. It was priceless. That day was a beautiful day. Dobb's Park is right across from the school so we walked over there and toured the park. On our travels to the park, the kids were to pick up leaves and any cool treasures along the way. There were many pretty leaves as it is starting to turn into fall.




Here is a picture of everyone in her class.They are all so cute and well mannered little beings.

Lowe's Build and Grow Clinics

Since before Austin and when I was on bedrest, Savannah got to partake in these clinics. One Saturday morning, our good friend, Lynn, took Savannah to one of these. Lowe's has these clinics for kids to make their own projects using hammer and nails. They make fun things like tic tac toe boxes, basketball goals, bug boxes, etc. Savannah has been to a few with Lynn and McKinley and Lynn has even just picked up a few for us. Several weekends ago, the whole family got to go for the first time. We had a great time.
Mommy and Savannah using the hammer and nails to put together our project. Savannah has got quite the skills for this especially since her daddy hasn't taught her anything she knows (being a handy man and all.)
Austin had to be a part of this experience. You see Savannah received an apron and goggles for safety the first time she came. They are supposed to wear these while building, but Savannah did not want to wear hers so Austin got the chance.
Here is Savannah and her final project for the week. It is a dog leash holder. It works well in the garage and she smiles everytime we use it. This is great fun and gives great experiences to kids and the best part is it's FREE. What else can I say?
