September

The kids love playing on the ripline at Aunt Martie's house

I love that Eliza is reading her scriptures before bed :)



Playing in the rain

For Andrew's birthday he wanted friends to come over to play night games. They also had pizza, cake, and nerf gun wars.

I can't believe he is 10!

For his birthday (actually the day before because his birthday was on a Sunday), we went to the trampoline park. Andrew's favorite thing is the dodge ball.

Hannah tried a couple of times before she made it to the top. I loved her determination to not give up!

Happy Birthday!!

Grasshopper pie...yum!

Grandma came to visit- we had so much fun!! We let each kid stay home from a day of school to spend with her. Ethan chose to go to the zoo on his day.





Hannah went to botanical gardens on her day off.





Andrew went on a tour of a cool cave. I don't know why he makes this silly face in pictures sometimes.

Playing in puddles with bare feet

The girls helping grandma

We went to Grant's farm for Eliza's choice.  I loved having my mom here!

We started doing quiet time boxes since Eliza doesn't nap, so we can both have some quiet time. They kind-of work.

FHE activity at the high school field





Hannah made muffins and lemonade herself one day so she could have a little sale. Unfortunately we live at the end of a cul-de-sac in a quiet neighborhood which is not good for business. Fortunately she has siblings.

Playing in the downpour





After the storm they hadn't come back inside yet so I went to find them. They were down the street, bare foot and soaking wet and they told me they were pretending to be abandoned children :).

Farmer's Market for preschool





I work with activity day girls for church a couple of Wednesdays a month. We did nature art on this night.

Eliza and I had a fun day at the park. We were throwing rocks in the stream and then she decided to go in with her shoes on.  Crazy kid!

Andrew loves the gymnastics mat he got for his birthday - thanks to all who went in on it! He was teaching Ethan how to play tackle football here.
