Family and Hiking





Aunt Coco and Kelli came out to see Timmy and help us all adjust to life with a newborn again right away.They visited Sept.18-26. It was so great to have them here and I can't thank them enough for bringing Grandma Steffen out and all the help Aunt Coco was. Kelli and Sophia loved watching TV together in the afternoons. And Friday night we did a movie night at aunt Kathy's. Oh, and Saturday Kelli helped Randy make doughnuts. They were very yummy!




All the kids have loved having Grandma Steffen here. Randy and I have loved it too.




Alex and Max's (Randy is the leader for Max's group)cubscout pack went for a hike at Whetstone Park here in NY last Sunday (Oct.3). (Not far from Kathy and Dale's cabin). When everyone started the hike they were prepared for a 4 mile hike, it turned out to be closer to 6 maybe 7 miles though. Randy said it was a really pretty hike with some small waterfalls and even some little streams they had to cross. Most of the hike was on the ledge of a huge gorge, with no railing, so Randy said he held Max's hand most of the way. They all seemed to think it was fun. They ended up stopping at Kathy and Dale's cabin and the boys got to shoot some kind of gun for the first time. They thought it was very exciting, plus Aunt Kathy had made apple pie, which of course Alex loved. The two boys got home smiling in their sleep.
