Why You Should Always Know Where Your Kids Are...

Early this week I took advantage of a rainy day to clean out my car. As I worked I listened to the rain, but soon realized the noise I heard wasn't from falling raindrops. I peeked around the corner and caught a glimpse of Jonathan splashing in a mud puddle. I must have left the door open just enough for the "outdoor boy" of the family to escape. He was a fantastic mess and loving every piece of dirt! Although it's November the rain and temperature were surprisingly warm so we took a moment to splash and say cheese for the camera. Maybe there will be some rain boots under the Christmas tree near the end of December!

Enjoying the beautiful fall day in the backyard.... Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Jonathan the Lion had a roaring good time at Englewood's Fall Festival. He didn't quite understand the concept of playing games for candy, but by the end of the night, he did understand that he should put candy in the bag. His favorite activities were the ball pit and splashing in the duck pond! Maybe next year he should be a duck...



Before we went to the Fall Festival Jonathan and Maddison smiled for the camera beside the pumpkin and the mum. We found this beautiful mum downtown at the farmers market one Saturday morning.


Maddison and Hannah look adorable, don't they?


I learned why candy is associated with Halloween. Sometimes it's the only why you can bribe kiddos into their costume!
