A Warm November Day 2009

Another “better late than never” post!

One warm november day, we took some cute picture of Natalie playing at Veteran’s Park and visiting cows at Cherry Grove Farm. The trip to the farm ended badly when all of a sudden Natalie started crying hysterically. We thought maybe the cows had scared her, then figured out that Natalie had touched the electric fence. I was outraged that there were NO signs anywhere on the fence or at the farm warning of this danger. I shared these concerns with the worker in the farm store, so hopefully next time we visit, they will had added some warnings.

Remember us?

We used to post here? I know it’s been a loooong time, but I plan on spending my maternity leave playing catch-up with the blog. There will a series of “better late than never” posts being published for the next week or so. Exciting, no? C’mon, admit it, you missed this blog!!

Here are pictures (and a video!!) of Natalie’s 3rd birthday, celebrating family-style!
