Fall, Winter, and Halloween

Well, we have had a little of everything since I last posted. Grandma and Grandpa were able to drop in for a few days and we just loved having them around. Having visitors just makes life great. We had fun visiting the book fair at Caden's school, checking out Brady's office and even getting a little dental work done, going to the pumpkin patch, shopping, and all kinds of other excitement. Thanks for staying with us, we had way too much fun.
Then we had 2 days of winter. We went sledding, had a fantastic snow day meal and treats with friends, and made a snowman with our favorite neighbor. Halloween was beautiful. The snow all melted, we carved pumpkins, visited the nursing home in full costume, and trunk or treated after a dinner of chili and cinnamon rolls.

Our Tiny Dancer

She LOVES it!!! And I love that she loves it.


Thanks Grandpa, for sneeking in and taking pictures. They really are priceless!

What's New?

We have been having so much fun lately. We feel like we are getting more and more settled all the time. We love it here and are just enjoying life.

Avery, who we thought was our super calm little baby has blossemed into quite the little wiggler. I was shocked when at just under 5 months she was started army crawling...she wasn't even sitting at the time. No fair, we totally missed the sit on the blanket and play stage. Now she has also mastered sitting on her own as well, but who wants to just sit on a blanket and play when you can crawl around and get into things??? She has also started eating solid foods and really loves it. Kamrie just started Dance. This isn't her first class ever but she is really into it this time. I have to say that as I peeked in through the door, I just loved watching her. She was really trying hard to do everything just like the teacher did. She can't wait to go back.

Caden decided while we were visiting Utah this time that he would try his luck at water skiing. I was really nervous for him but he tried it and got up his very first try. It was the highlight of our boating trip for sure. Way to go big guy!!!
