The Hawleys Descend from the Great North!

This is a bit overdue, but we had a wonderful visit from my parents and Uncle Doug a couple of weeks ago. We kept it low key overall, but did make a trip to Wilson's Orchard for some fantastic apple picking! As you might imagine, we love anything autumn since we've been without changing seasons for five years!

Grandma Hawley giving Leif his Koala that Kaj "built" for him before he was born, complete with a recorded "I wove baby bruh-va" when you squeeze the paw - Yes, it's a favorite!

Someone's intrigued by the camera...

Whoa, buddy! (the next shot is of a nostril, I think)
