While Daddy's Away

Daddy had a business trip early in October, so we had some fun while he was gone. The day before he came back, we finished building our new monkey bars. Anna had preschool that day, and was supposed to wear the color orange. We enjoyed sporting our new Tennessee sweatshirt while everyone else wore Halloween shirts.

Caleb worked on his batting stance...

Then he helped Daddy out by "mowing" the lawn.

One afternoon, we headed to Kid's Kingdom, a playground in Madison.

It's great!

There are ropes to climb...

Caleb turned out to be quite the daredevil.

He's also quite the clown.

Anna found Cinderella's pumpkin coach,

and Caleb offered to drive.

I'm not sure she'll let Caleb drive again...

You can't see it, but Anna is sitting on the smokestack of a train.

They both had a ball playing on it, but Caleb didn't sit still long enough for a picture.

They both had a ball sliding down the "monster's" tongue.

They both ran around saying "don't eat me!" for about a half an hour.

Do you remember that Schoolhouse Rock song, "Electricity"?

Anna's hair really flies when she plays on a slide for very long.

But no matter how much fun we have, we're always really excited to see Daddy!
