Trick or Treat

The wind let up and the rain stopped just in time for some trick or treating!  It was fun to eat dinner (Dicks hamburgers!) with our neighbors and trick or treat with the big group!  :)  So blessed to live where we do. Great friends.
Brooke the butterfly (last minute change from Minnie Mouse - - no biggie that she wanted to wear this 2 years in a row!, Jaelyn has Alex Morgan, and Ben as a TMNT.  :)



Checking out all the loot.  I'm still amazed at how many houses pass out the "big" candy bars!

USA Soccer!

The US National Women's Soccer team made a stop in Seattle as part of their victory tour.  The 4 of us got to watch the US take on Brazil - it was weird to not have Brookie with us.  Boy was it fun to watch them play!  Team USA!



Can't beat sitting with Kora & Celia too!

Another tooth

#2 lost not even 24 hours after the first!  I didn't know that biting on tic-tacs was the way to have it come out!  Nice work buddy!

Hanging out with Daddy
Waiting for a 3 pt buck walk by them!  Unfortunately they didn't see anything.  :(  Ben did have a blast with the guys at the cabin!

Pumpkins!!

Our annual trek to the pumpkin patch - it felt more like summer weather than fall...what a beautiful/warm day on the farm!
Precious.
 Stop growing up, beautiful!
 Hand over heart.  Love you to pieces. (no that's not lipstick/blue marker on his cheek - - that's the result of said face colliding with the wood stairs.  Stairs - 1, Face - 0.  Ouchie.  
 On the hunt for the perfect one...
The kiddos found their perfect pumpkin - was harder this year than in years past due to the unseasonably warm summer.  Pumpkin have been ready for a while....a lot were past their prime!

Brooke's 1st Field Trip!

It finally came!  Brooke's own field trip.....to Oxbow Farm!  The weather turned out great and the rain stayed away.  Yay.  :)  Always a great time at Oxbow Farm learning & eating all 6 parts of a plant:  root (carrot), stem (rhubarb), leaf (lettuce), flower (not sure the name!), & fruit (apple), seed (sunflower seed)!


 Looking for worms....ewww!
 Mom - I picked this flower just for you!  And...you can eat it!

 Sunflower shower
 Tasty carrot.  Nothing better than straight out of the ground
 Goofball!
 Hide and Go Seek....using rhubarb leaves to hide.  Too cute!
The perfect pumpkin for the adorable pumpkin!  Loved spending the morning just with you!
