Fall and the Finch Arboretum

Every year the Greenup family goes to the Finch Arboretum to have lunch and take pictures. It was a very fun day for all the cousins. Here's Nanna and Papa G.

We think Olivia's ready to start walking. She had to tolerate being strolled around that day.









An Evening Out

Our good friends, the Armstrong's had extra tickets to the Phantom of the Opera so we unexpectantly got to go see it. It was our first time and it was wonderful! Now we know why everyone always raves about it.
Karie and I. We ate out at The Melting Pot which was a 3 hour experience with fondu. The food was amazing but because it went so long we had to take a rain check on dessert and leave to make the show. Who knew it would take so long?

Montana Trip

This past weekend we went over to Montana to visit Grandma Emily (Papa Jim Greenup's mother) in Shelby, MT. We had a great time and we hope/think Grandma did also. Having 2 kids 2 years old and younger definately heightens the pace and activity level.



We stayed at John & Mary Righter's (Nana Greenup's sister & husband) on the way over and Ezra got to learn up close about horses.

The kids did exceptionally well in the car for the trip over to Montana and back. We didn't know what to expect, but our expectations of traveling were not that high to begin with. Overall, Ezra did way better than we could have hoped.
In this picture, he is holding his lamby, his bible, a giraffe, sippy cup, toy plier's, & his minature lion. He was so excited to travel in the car, but he wanted to make sure nothing got left behind.

Crawling Birthdays. . . . er, I mean Birthdays and Crawling

It's official! Heidi is now 26 years old. Our friends made a special non-dairy chocolate cake for her at our bible study that night. Thanks Alison!

Wait a minute! 6 months and crawling? Olivia weighs 12#13.5 oz now and she's so strong. She does baby push-ups all the time- we think she's trying to buff up to keep up with older brother.
Olivia's response at being able to get around now. Yeah!
