Gingerbread Houses

We went to the Gingerbread House Festival at Thanksgiving Point. They were so cute and creative, I can't imagine how much time some of them must have taken to make. Afterward we got ice cream and Ava got her own cone to make a mess with. She thought it was great. We had a fun afternoon!

Fall Fun

Sue raked up piles of leaves in the yard for the kids to play in. They all had a great time diving in and throwing the leaves in the air!

Ellie was a great helper raking leaves up!

Date Night!

Chris and I went to a black-tie dinner at the Grand Amercia for the Hindsight Trading that Chris does. It was fun to get dressed up and go to a nice dinner and also to have an evening out just the two of us!

Happy Halloween

Gardner Village

Friday afternoon we took a trip up to Gardner Village to see the witches. We had a good time walking around looking at the Halloween decorations and little shops, then we all enjoyed a carmel apple before we left. Mazie, Ellie, Madi and Ava

This is how feeding time goes. Ava still wants her bottle when the boys eat, so we have three bottles to make most of the time. It gets pretty crazy!

One of Ava's first steps. She is doing so good, she will be walking on her own any day!

Ava wanted to help papa vacuum. It wasn't actually any help but she thought it was fun to have a ride anyway.

Two binki's are better than one?

Sleepover

Last week Lacey and the kids came to sleepover! The kids slept in the basement while Lacey helped me take care of the boys during the night! Chris decided to make cookies at 10:30 with the kids. I think Madi was the only one who was actually still awake by the time the cookies were done!
