Carving time!

I thought Hannah made the funniest faces while helping us carve the pumkins.


After we were done we roasted the pumpkin seeds and they were very tastey.

Pumpkin Patch

We decided to support a local farm in our area. They were selling pumpkins for a killer deal. We got 2 good size pumpkins for $7.00.


We really enjoy our family outings.

Hannah's Birthday!

We had a small party at home for Hannah since we had such a busy few weeks!

Hannah has been talking about what she wants for her birthday for a bout 2 months. She wished for a scooter and more furniture for her doll house.

Our Baby Girl is now 4!

Caution!!!
Below is a sappy Mom gushing over her daughters birthday!











Hard to believe our precious little girl came to us 4 years ago!


We adore Hannah and are thankful everyday that God gave her to us. She brings so much joy into our lives and it's as if we've known her forever.

Emilie and Joey's Visit

We were so excited when we found out Emilie and Joey were coming to visit. I really enjoyed seeing Hannah play with her cousin Joey. They are only 4 months apart. Due to an unexpected stomach bug and a lot of rain, we really kept the visit low key. We played games, did puzzled, and did some geneology.

While Emilie was here she wanted to go to all of her favorite restaurants from when she lived here. So we went to lunch at our favorite sushi place and went out for Vietnamese soup.

Kathy, Emilie's great friend, joined us for Sushi. The kids enjoyed watching the chef prepare the food right in front of them. He was very cute and entertaining for the kids.

Playing Catch up!

I have had a very busy last two weeks and unfortunatly I have neglected my blog. Now, I'm going to play catch up. These are the main events I will fill you in on....

My sister and nephew came to visit from Utah.

We celebrated Hannah's 4th Birthday!

Halloween!

Birthday Party at the Park!!

We had a great time today at the Park. Carsen turned 4 on the 16th and we were invited to the park to celebrate his Birthday!


Hannah and Carsen are good friends. They go to the same pre-school together. Carsen's younger sister is Ella...isn't she cute.

Marshall loved the swings he was able sit up all by himself. Even Mom had a good time chatting with all the other Mom's especially my good friends...Stacey and Joanna... and of course my sister Kiki was there:)

Hannah Doing the "Daddy" Dance

I love being a Mom!

There are such simple pleasures you experience as a Mom! I love my daughter playing dress-up, using her imagination. I love my son's cute smiling face. These are the moments I have dreamed of and now I'm living the dream.

Heritage Arts & Craft Festival

We had so much fun in West Virginia. We went to an annual Arts & Crafts Festival. Hannah was intrigued by watching the bees make honey.
Marshall loves Hannah and got so excited when she was playing with him.

Butterfly potatoes! A crooss between a potatoe chips and french fries. Yummy with vinegar!
I was very impressed by this artist. He is very talented.

Hannah loves her Daddy, they were watching a miniature train do its rounds.

Grandpa bought Hannah this lovely instrument and she tried so hard to play a beautiful song.
