Christopher Columbus

We are still alive. Just suffering from too much to do and a dead desktop housing all of our photos. The hiatus has served as a reminder that as much as these personal blogs are "so five years ago," I still love them and feel such an attachment to this little piece of the Internet that is ours for the updating. 

So....

Monday we were lucky enough to have Cole all to ourselves for the day. We slept in as much as Crew will let us these days, fueled up at our favorite drink stop, paid rock bottoms prices on a fabulous pumpkin family and then headed south to enjoy the Alpine Loop. 

The government shutdown meant that we saved a few dollars at the entrance but it also meant the every pavilion-side restroom or portapotty was on lockdown. Tough news for this pregnant mama. But in happier news, the colors were spectacular and Crew had a blast tromping in the mud and snow.

After a late lunch, we squeezed in some putt putt and games. Such a fun day with my favorite boys!
