A Beautiful Sunday in the Fall

On October 27, 2013, we all woke up at the villa (after having had a great day at the wedding the day before) and Mom had prepared us a delicious breakfast.

Charlotte and Uncle Cha Cha shared breakfast together in the bay window overlooking the water.

Charlotte was drinking her "coffee" and so was he.

Mary and Chad headed home for a church function and Anne headed back to Jeff City to see her hubby. Alex had a bunch of stuff he had wanted to do on Sunday and I had a LONG honey-do list for him so we stayed down at the Villa for one more day to just let the kids relax and have a simple day before heading home on Monday.

We went down to the river with Papa again.





Papa carried them down the STEEP bluff down to the river. 




We LOVE rocks.

Do they look like siblings?



It's pretty beautiful.

Papa was teaching her to skip rocks.



The steep trek back up to the villa.

After we played by the river, we took naps and ate lunch. Great Grandpa and Grandma Schumann came up to see us from Kampsville. Grandma is looking MUCH better than in September. She brought her oxygen tank with her and carried it around. Charlotte loved her time with them. Sawyer was scared of Grandpa's voice for some reason. But we had a great time. They even sat on the back porch in the sun and got a bit of Vitamin D. When they got tired they headed home.

But not before Grandpa used his shoe horn.
Now THAT is a serious shoe horn!!!

It was almost like a weapon!

We also ended up getting some fabulous visitors later that evening too. Chet, Vanessa and their new doggy Sugar came by. O. M. G. They just adopted this dog. She is SO SWEET. She loved everyone. We watched the game with them. Vanessa helped me bathe the babies. Chet enjoyed some homemade chicken N dumplins... It was a great Sunday.

The Cardinals DID lose but that's ok.

It was an awesome Sunday of relaxation and family....even though we DID miss Alex so much :)
