Weekend fun

Saturday and Sunday are definitely our favorite days of the week. We love spending time as a family. We have enjoyed an amazing fall! The trees are "naked" now (that's what the kids say). We keep thinking any day it could snow, but it has held off and the weather has stayed in the 40's which has been amazing!

I made a new friend who has some chickens and she said we could bring the kids over anytime to see them. Saturday was the perfect day for that so we went out to her house. She held off feeding the chickens & gathering the eggs so that the kids could help. They loved feeding the chickens!! 

When the kids checked the eggs there was just one so far that day. They looked the big brown egg over very carefully. They wanted to know if a chick was inside, and somehow the egg ended up cracked. Oops! I'm glad there was just one!

After playing with the chickens we went on a hike to explore some property we are interested in. We love being out in the woods just exploring nature! 

Sunday was a pretty relaxed day. We went to the later service at church then spent the day hanging out. Since Lance knows his numbers and letters we knew it would be a good time to introduce a simple card game to him. Lance picked up on Go Fish super quick and before we knew it he was beating us with no help at all! 

Fairbanks has been a wonderful change for our family. Having daddy home every night and every weekend is amazing!!
