Fall Fun

I don't know how it's been in Idaho lately but Fall in Wisconsin this year has felt more like winter! It was 80 degrees in mid-September when we left for Idaho and was in the forties when we got back! But today we had one great day. It was 64 degrees, the sky was clear, and only a slight breeze. We had to take advantage of the beautiful fall day so we went on a morning walk, spent the afternoon at a park, played in the backyard, and went for another evening walk. Also, yesterday was pretty nice and we went to the Little Farmer again and did the hay ride and let the kids play. It's a really fun place with corn mazes, an apple orchard, pumpkins, goats, chickens, etc. Here's some pictures.






















Our other project this month was a new floor in the kitchen and dining room. I LOVE it. It now makes me realize how gross our old kitchen floor was! I sweep now and it actually looks clean! Gabe is loving preschool. This week he is the snack helper so wish me luck on that. I know I'm making muffins one of the days. Caleb is now only taking one nap a day instead of two. He's getting more personality every day. And he loves to dance. Any commercial with music and he instantly starts to bust a move. He tries to jump. It's funny though cause both feet are never actually off the ground at once. Gabe laughs at him and says, "My baby is funny!" (He thinks Caleb is "his baby" like some toy we bought for him.) Other than that life is the usual. Time just keeps slippin' by! I'm starting to Christmas shop which Josh makes fun of me for. I'm excited for the holidays. Our trick or treating is this Sunday. I'll post pics. That's all for now!

Last home projects

I love looking at before and afters plus I am so proud of Josh for all the work he has done. It has been one year on October 30th since we bought this house so in celebration of our 1 year as homeowners, here's a look back at all the work!

Our Idaho Trip

We are officially settling back in after our fun, fun trip to Idaho. We loved seeing all our friends and family. Gabe only has one cousin here and we had told him about his many, many cousins in Idaho and it got to the point that every time we were around any child he would call him/her his cousin. (The firsr 14 kids we hung out with the first couple days really were so I guess he just assumed everyone in Idaho was related- wait... sometimes that DOES seem true! :)

Anyways we had such a great time hanging out with everyone, visiting the temple, and of course floating the river (a must on Josh's list every time.) I swear one day I will take one wrong step and slide to my death down that mountain! Luckily, I made it this time. Here's some of my favorite pictures from the trip...
