Our Colin.

I snapped these pictures of Colin while we were at the land. I think these totally sum up his personality!

The Land.

We had the privilege of going to my Grandpa's land 2 weekends in a row. Kevin finally got to come! The first weekend was fun, but unfortunately it rained and was cold the entire time we were there. And, I didn't take any pictures. Oops.
The next weekend's weather was much better. The only thing missing was the rest of our family! We missed everyone that couldn't be there. We did the usual...eat, walk, talk, ride four wheelers, take a trip up to the store (my grandpa explained to Kevin that is was a "Redneck Gander Mountain" haha) and sit around the campfire. No TV, internet or cell phones for us! Colin is definitely a "land kid". He loves it there! He had so much fun exploring. He is such a trooper and is totally up for anything. Since his naps were off, once he fell asleep on Daddy's shoulders while taking a walk, and once he fell asleep while taking a ride on the four wheeler.

Four wheelin' with Uncle Chris.



The corn!



Colin loved searching for mushrooms growing in the forest.

The guys fixing the dirt road. 

Malleeeee!

Colin, Emily and Lindsey.

Papa and Colin.

So pretty.



 Kevin checking out a tree stand. Is this where he will be hunting (freezing and bored) this season?

Lindsey and Chris. I'm sorry, but these two are made for eachother. What other girl would wear camo pants, a knife, and a gun?


See the row of Christmas trees in front that my Grandpa planted? Can't wait to have a "land tree" in my house for Christmas!...hopefully someday...

Colin fell asleep during our looong walk.

We're on top of the mountain! See the pretty farm down below?

Colin in the hay!

Walking down the dirt road.

Sparklers!

Me and my buddy.

Taking a break.


Cutting down the big tree.

Standing where the big tree was!



Piled in the four wheeler trailer for a ride.

Happy Birthday to Jack.

Our nephew is 5! I know I say it every year but I can't believe it. And what a handsome guy he is. This year, he's into all things outer space. Hope your 5th birthday was outta this world! Hehe.
Opening presents.
I took 4 pictures of Jack and Colin sitting on the chair together, and in every one of them, someone has their eyes half closed. Ahhh...one of these days I will get one!

Bills Win.

This time, our visit to Ralph Wilson Stadium was complete. The Bills actually won a game while we were in attendance! Kevin was in his glory. What an exciting came it was too, with a win in the last few seconds of the game. A typical Buffalo nail-biter!
Bills 38- Raiders 35

Stokoe Farms.

We went to Stokoe Farms on the opening day of their fall festivities. This place is awesome! Can you tell how much fun we had from the bazillion pictures that I took? 



























Jim, Laura and Jordan came towards the end of our day...so Kevin and Jim got some playtime in too.
