WELCOME FALL

It's official...fall is here and summer is over.  Just when I was starting to feel a bit disappointed that our lazy and fun days were leaving with it, I realized that I love fall.  I really do like the start of the school year, a routine, crispy fall mornings, the turning colors of the trees, football season, soup, and playing outside with jackets on.  Welcome Fall!

We did, however, have a beautiful summer 2011 and are still enjoying the sunshine (even though it's fall)!

Safe kids day

My friend Sarah and I took the kids to Safe Kids Day at community hospital on Sunday. What a great idea for a kids event and pretty darn fun too!



Owen may want to be a bus drive when he grows up!





The babes watching the life flight helicopter land-mesmerized!

Bitty Soccer

Owen started "bitty soccer" this week!  He was very serious and listened intently to every word.  He was more in his element when they told the kids to go fast with the ball.  So cute to watch!

CHEESE!

I'm loving these cheesy smiles...

Clara is a total goof and either flashes a long cheese grin for pics or shakes her head and says "no".

Look at this awesome shirt that the Frasers sent from Japan.
It says "I wish you happy happy day" (I don't know what the LOVE part says).  We wish you "happy happy day Frasers"!

Purple day for preschool (my shirt was the only option) and Clara wanted to be in the pic too!

Go Griz

The Grizzlies play Eastern today and we are so happy to have Dom with us for the weekend to share in the fun!  We all went to the tailgate, the boys stayed for the game and Clara and I are at home now watching it on tv/napping.  What a fun day!

Pics from the pre game and post game festivities..

Setting the Table

...in his own creative way.

Although it doesn't look like it, he did leave the fork on the table and fly the plane back to the silverware drawer for another fork.  Thanks for your help sweet boy :)

Power pony

Oh Clara, just because i called it a power pony does not mean it entitles you to more power-capiche?

Bozeman

Friday we went to Bozeman to stay with Gabe &Flora McCormick (the newlyweds).  The Hubbards also stayed in Bozeman so that Jenna and I could run the 1/2 marathon on Sunday.  We fit in a lot of play time before that...Bogart Park, MoBerry (yogurt place) and the Museum of the Rockies.  Thank you Gabe and Flora for being wonderful hosts, and thanks to Jenna for running with me!

Cutest fans in the world!

Osprey Game & Pre School

Last night we joined Ron and his Blackfoot co-workers for their party on the deck at the Osprey game.  We enjoyed the BBQ, the game and the freedom to run around on the deck! 

Owen was given a foul ball by one of the players-made his day!

Owen started Pre School this week and is so happy to be back with Miss Stephanie.  Today was red day!

Suncadia

Labor Day weekend was spent with the Elhardt Family in Suncadia!  Thank you Matt and Teresa for hosting us-we loved seeing you all!  By the way, if anyone is interested in renting the Elhardt's place, here is the info...Suncadia Rental Home.
