Pumpkin Patch..

Pumpkin Time!! Thanks to our friend Gretchen for giving us directions to this wonderful little pumpkin patch. We really enjoyed trying somewhere new this year, while supporting a local "farmer" :)
They had this fun corn maze right there in their front yard! The girls...and Phil loved it! :)

Plenty of great spots for a quick photo shoot!



Have a fun and safe Halloween!!! :)

Artprize 2010

A few weeks ago we headed north to Grand Rapids to take in the ArtPrize. This is a huge draw for artists all over the world. Here are a few of our favorites:

We weren't able to see this piece in person, the line was REALLY long...and we had all 5 (kilian/sayers) girls. But it is going to be on display for the rest of the year, so we plan on going back!!

Cavalry
Created with only pencil & paper. This was a huge piece. This is just one of the 5 0r 6 panels.
Oh...and this was also the winner of ArtPrize 2010!!

Steam Pig.

This was just fun to see "flying"d over the city!


This pack of Lions were made completely of welded steel nails. I love the girls hands in this picture! :)
Grace and Uncle Phil signing their name to the largest greeting card created
This was one of our favorites!!
This large penny is made of actual layered pennies.


The girls enjoyed listening to this one man show.
He reminded us of Bert from Mary Poppins! :)
Elephant Walk
It was fun to see Grand Rapids packed with visitors! It was almost like we were walking around Chicago. This event, with out a doubt, brings a nice boost to the downtown scene!

An Apple a Day....

Apple Picking at Gull Meadow Farms!!

Emma is excited to use her new front teeth this Fall!! :)
Next year...there will be a Boomershine Bambino in this picture!!! Yeah!!! :)

My "poser" :)

Centreville Fair

Are either of them REALLY enjoying this interaction?? :)
Who knows...but she hung around talking to him for quite a while!
The girls rode most of the kiddie rides...but the old cars are always a favorite!! Slow...but they have a sweet horn! :)
Another favorite is the "money hungry monkey" If you give him a quarter (no pennies allowed!!!), he'll tip his hat and put the money in his pocket.
Thanks for a fun night Nana & Bampa. The fair is always a fun tradition! :)
This year we were introduced to Bayou Billy! :) Wes and Em generously shared their "Billy Mug" with us. $1 refills FOR LIFE!!! :)
Home brewed Root Beer and other assorted beverages! :)
It didn't take much convincing before Rob joined in the "Billy" fun!! :)
Mmmm....refreshing!
