Fall Fun!!





We are enjoying a GREAT Fall!! Except it feel more like winter?? Do I have the only family that jumps for joy and gets totally excited everytime it snows? The kids get so excited they can hardly eat their breakfast... they just want to get on the winter gear and go play!!! As you can see they made the most of our recent snow ... makeing a snowman with Grandpa Alan (kind of a tradition now...). Good thing they got right on it too... the snow was GONE by 3p.m that afternoon (Thursday, Oct. 8th).

We had a lovely long weekend -- Tante Carrie drove out for a visit. We made the MOST of the short time she was here... Bully's Blends for breakfast, a full day of shopping (with very cooperative kids! How did that happen?!). We went ice skating, watched Project Runway (fav show!!), made homemade pizza... Just had a great time!

Dirk update: I shouldn't even write updates, becuase everytime I write again, it makes me look like a liar.... So now he won't be back until the 2nd week of November. I guess I just need to start writing when he WON't be home... so far that part has been right EVERY time! He is coming home for a weekend visit this weekend...which we are all VERY happy about! :)
