Fall Arrival

Quite the busy time before Miss A's arrival.
We wanted to get in some Halloween activities as we thought we might be in the hospital delivery room or recovering on the due date of the 31st.


Miss S out for a kayak ride on the Sacramento River.


A beautiful sunset on the river.

Miss S with one of her friends waiting for a ride at our community school Halloween party.


Here she is going for a ride on a creation that traveled to the burning man festival. It can hold 15 adults but is now making appearances at local community events. The kids loved it.


An up close picture. It is even more spectacular at night when it is all lit up.


All the pre Halloween festivities must have prompted Miss A's arrival.

Her first visit from her pediatrician and getting clearance to go home less than 24 hours after arriving.
