A few shots from a stop at Sunnyside Gardens here in Saratoga Springs. We're making the most of beautiful days and the energetic spirit of these two little ones!

Playgrounds are very exciting with Rowan and Evangeline. Rowan just runs off and can climb, slide, and scale the equipment all by himself. Evangeline now loves to swing and has been recently named a slide addict. It's all good timing since visiting the playgrounds is our most popular fall activity!

Rowan and Evangeline are pictured here at Lions Park in Upper Saddle River. I grew up playing on this playground although it most certainly looked different then since my memories are of splinters from the wood construction and hot metal from the reflective slides!

Our fall adventures are already double those that we got in last year. It's a new experience to be a little more flexible with the children and their schedules. They are both very eager about getting in the car and going for an adventure. Yippee!

On this excursion we traveled a long dusty road to Gardenworks at MacClan's Family Farm in Salem, NY. Driving on Mosquito Swamp Road was either a highlight or lowlight of the trip! With our successful arrival to the family farm we met Lolly, Pops, and PopPop, who also made the trip down from the lake, to Raspberry pick, meet the animals, and shop their little market. It was also a trip down memory lane as PopPop spent some of his time in Salem with his friend Norm on the farm and we were able to talk with the MacClans about mutual friends.
