September/October 2009

In the interest of trying to catch up on posts here, I'm am going to wrap up the last few months in just a few posts. They were busy months, but I think I can do it!

We had planned a camping trip in September to Cumberland Falls, but when we got there, it was pouring rain, and our campsite had a river of mud flowing through it. Luckily, Cumberland Falls is only a couple of hours from our house, so we turned around and "camped" at home.

Sophie also had her school picnic in September, and she tasted cotton candy for the first time, strangely enough. Her reaction was mixed:

Most of the afternoon was spent climbing on the strange playground toys they had at the fair grounds (where the picnic was held).

Later in October, we went to a Cincinnati Reds game with some friends of ours. The stadium is beautiful--right on the Ohio River.

Surprisingly, Sophie enjoyed herself the entire game! (Soon after this, we had to hunt down a kid's baseball bat, and Grandpa Wilson sent a small baseball glove for her. Pictures of that adventure to come...)
