Family Pictures

We had family pictures taken yesterday and I just LOVE the fall colors for photos and of coarse my sweet family. I feel so blessed to have each of them in my life. 

Grandpas Leafs

My mom watched the kids for me while I had activity day girls over. After the girls left I went to my parents to find them enjoying themselves in the leafs.  My parents have tons of Mature trees to produce loads of leafs! This is one of my favorite memories of my childhood. I remember raking the leafs into piles and jumping into them. Grandma made it a little more exciting for the kids with having chairs to jump off of. So glad my kids can enjoy their leafs since we don't have quite so many!

The Farmstead

We had a preschool fieldtrip and it happened to be on Charlies Birthday! We were so excited daddy had the day off to come with us! Here are our highlights of this cold October morning!

Charlies 4 year Birthday

 Charlie had a great fun filled birthday. Daddy took the day of so he could spend it with us.  We went to the Farmstead in the morning with his preschool friends and than headed to lunch for "star nuggets"  After school Grandma, Netta, Josh, Brooke, Tanon, Livi and Sawyer (charlies neighbor friend) came over to sing happy birthday! He has been begging for a "jeep" so luckily I had found one on a used sale page for $30! Grandma painted it to look shiny new and my neighbors printed off new stickers for it! He of coarse can't tell but LOVES it! 

Little facts about Charlie;

His favorite color is Orange, He loves just about any food but in particular he loves this veggie chicken pasta mix from the costco frozen area, he loves to play with his friends, he is a great help to everyone, but most of all he brings a sense of peace to our family. No doubt he was sent at the time he was for a reason. We love this little guy and so glad he is with us!
