so i'm the type of person that usually likes to have something to do. sure, von & i have downtime quite a bit, but i always have some sort of project/chore/to-do list going on behind the scenes. however, not this past sunday. you see, FOOTBALL IS FINALLY HERE!! which means, momma & dada plop themselves in front of a tv for a majority of the afternoon/evening hours. von thought this was pretty nifty yesterday ... he kept running in an out of whatever room we were in, looking at us like "ok, good, just checking to make sure you're still here" .. and then off he'd run again to resume whatever adventure he was enjoying throughout the house. now dont be concerned - we did feed, hydrate, and change him :) we also got new toys out and/or rearranged whatever he had just left in the room, so he thought that was pretty interesting too. it was a sunday funday (von even sat thru the entire service @ church yesterday morning!) ... the air had a certain nip in it, the leaves are starting to fall off the trees, a few short rain showers, and obviously, football on the teley.
* you may be asking yourself: why is von not sporting any black & gold? the season is young, and i thought his rugby jumper was pretty adorable too!
we packed up the car and headed to a little spot known as 'midway state park' today with grandma, grandpa, aunt tiff, mason, & norah. upon arrival, and much to our dismay, we discovered that the park was indeed open - however the rides were not operating. ARGH, to say the least! so instead of a ride-filled afternoon, we picnicked and walked around the grounds. nonetheless, it ended up being an enjoyably fun day. next summer, midway better look out for the invasion of mason, von, & norah - they are coming with a wrath!!! :)
