some october happenings

We bought a new car and Issabelle and Harkin were the first to ride in it.

We've gone for some walks in this beautiful fall weather.

There has been lots of dressing up to practice and decide what we should be for halloween.

Landon's last game of the season they got balloons and flowers to give their parents, then had a team dinner out to celebrate.

There is always more just not capturing that many pictures these days. Everyone is excited for halloween of course. We have some nice weather and have been mostly at home enjoying the outdoors. Soccer has ended which all boys are sad about, but there may be some indoor this winter.

the echo

We went to the echo museum a few weeks ago. Just remembered the pictures. There was a neat exhibit about the 50 states, It was set up like trivial pursuit. The kids had fun and although it is a place mainly for the littles the big ones had fun this time with the trivia questions.

 It was our first "field trip friday" and last for several weeks, since my car broke down that day and we then spent the rest of september not going anywhere except soccer.

(I think field trip friday is only going to be every once in awhile and it will be more like fun friday.)

happy october

We went for a nature walk. A perfect way to finally welcome fall. It is chilly weather these days but I am enjoying it. The kids had a great time and the big boys were fun to just hang out with in the woods. It has been a long time since we have done this. I am hoping to make it a regular occurence. We are entering into hunting season so I just have to make sure we find trails where its not allowed.
It certainly felt great to be out in nature, just being with my kids.
