October happenings

October has been a fun month! It is one of the most beautiful months in Colorado. The weather is still warm enough where we can be outside every day but the mornings and nights are cold! 

The kids had some swim lessons and Josie started her first baby swim class with Luke. She loves the water and has no problem submerging her face: 

It is Broncos season. Just about every Sunday you will see us all wearing our Broncos gear:



Jack still misses his best buddies who are no longer going to school with him. We try to set up playdates out side of school when possible. Jack was able to meet up with his best buddy Will one weekend. We went to a fundraiser for one of the local farms. There was face painting:

And kids crafts. It was a fun time and the boys were excited to see each other again.
Little Josie is growing day by day. Her hair is getting really long and I can finally make a (tiny) ponytail
The kids have had to spend some cold afternoons inside already. Their favorite games include making tunnels and tea parties.
One weekend a friend invited us over for a backyard party. Jack showed off his volleyball moves
Josie had fun playing with the other kids
We try to spend as much time outside as possible. Not only is it good for the kids to be outside, but it also is my attempt to keep the house clean.

Josie was especially cute one fall afternoon so I tried to snap a couple pictures of her in pigtails before she pulled them out.
Even her shadow is cute!


The kids in their Halloween jammies
Luke and I have a date night with four other couples and somehow it turned into a costume date night. I decided I wanted to dress up like my favorite beer Snowdrop whose mastcot is  a version of Snow White. I was planning to do something simple, but when I mentioned the idea to my mom she volunteered to help me make something more elaborate. We went shopping and gathered material
And my mom went to work making my costume. It turned out really cute... stay tuned for pictures.
Here are the girls at the park before Lily's soccer class

Lily getting ready to practice
This is a funny picture of a light I got stuck at in town. I was trying to turn right.
Lily is doing great in preschool. She really seems to love it. Her teacher has commented that she is very smart and a natural leader. This is a picture of her before "crazy hair day" at preschool

Her class took their first field trip last week to a nearby farm.
Lily has turned into quite the jokester when I try to take pictures

It was a fun field trip and I loved seeing Lily with all her preschool friends
Josie had a pretty good time too... licking dirty pumpkins
