Camping...

We went to Cook's Forest last weekend to camp with Grandma and Papa Corbett! This is the cabin we stayed in. Uncle Sean and Beth were there too. We spent lots of time outside enjoying God's creation! Fall is so beautiful!


Papa and the kids on a hike...they all found hiking sticks and thankfully, Papa was able to find room in his vehicle to bring them home! Thanks, Papa!! ; )



Pennsylvania's beautiful fall foliage! (The picture doesn't do it justice!)


Ready for lunch! Western Style sandwiches, YUM!!




Some fun on the playground with Caleb and Colby.





Grandma and Liah watching the kids play.



Kaity taking Liah for her first slide!



Then it was Elli's turn.: )



Daddy splitting logs for the fire.



Liah all bundled for the night walk.


Grandma and Kaity on the night walk.



Liah's basin bath!



MMMMmmmm! Mountain pies!!! and Grandma's homemade applesauce! YUMMY!!


Zach and Thaniel ready for a hike.


Learnin' to skip rocks!

All in all everyone had a good time. We were sad Daddy had to leave early to go back to work. And we only stayed 2 nights much to the children's chagrin! But Mommy couldn't do another night with Liah not sleeping anywhere but her arms! Thanks Grandma and Papa for your hospitality once again! We love you!!!


I can't forget to include a picture of the "fort" the kids made with tree branches behind the cabin. Tag and hide 'n seek were the games of the weekend!

Just some fun pictures of the kids

Thaniel and Liah



Kidz Mission Impact kids! Kaity, Zach and Thaniel spent several hours at the church a couple Saturdays ago learning more about missions and what missionaries do along with other kids from area Alliance churches. They had a LOT of fun! Thanks Miss Kelly!



This is the really cool little boys bathroom! All decked out in CARS stuff! (NO, I didn't go in the bathroom to take the picture...this is from outside the door!)



SOCCER SISTERS!



Little sisters! (Aren't they so sweet?)

Tryin' new things...

ALLIYAH
She's trying lots of new things this week!The door bouncer! (She hasn't reached her potential in that activity yet!)


The Exersaucer! No, we don't have a fancy, fangled one. Just the early run-0f-the-mill type. She doesn't seem to mind! More room for more toys to throw off of the tray!
THIS THING IS A BLAST!!!
She's already figured out how to turn herself 360 degrees in it!



CEREAL!! RICE CEREAL!! Let's just say, she LOVES it! I could hardly scoop it up fast enough for her tonight! (Doesn't she look like such a big girl in the high chair? Stop growing so fast, girl!)

Happy Birthday, Karin

I had a birthday last month, but didn't have any pictures to post. My Dad sent me some, so here you go! Above is a picture with Kaity, my niece, Annie, and Elli


I had a little help...




Yay!! New clothes!!! Thanks, Mom! (and Dad) :)

Been a while...

SOCCER!
Our life on Sunday...church in the morning , then soccer all afternoon! We're at the fields from 1:30 to 5:30 every Sunday in September and October. This year four of the kids are playing. Zach and Thaniel are in the same division and on the same team. Annie is in that division too, so we've played her team a couple times...That's great when it happens for the moms because we can sit beside each other and visit too! But it makes Papa and Grandma Corbett feel a little schizophrenic routing for both teams!Here's Kaity in action!



Nathaniel getting the ball...his skills are improving so quickly!


And Zach...well, you can tell he's been playing since he was 3!



A couple weeks ago Elli's team played Austin's...



Here are my soccer players, taking a break between games!



Elli in action..she's picking up the game well!


And little Liah just as happy as could be!!! ; )
