Fall Fun!

Last weekend, we had perfect Fall weather! It was so nice. We spent a lot of time outdoors, soaking it all in!

First, we made our way to the pumpkin patch. And I learned that it's almost impossible to get a good picture of two children looking at you at the same time!

  And then finally...SUCCESS!

Later in the day, we headed over to Ken's parent's house for their annual bonfire. We got there a little early, so the boys played a bit outside...waiting for the sun to go down & for the fire to get started.

 Then, it was finally time! Look at the beautiful fire!

 Snack time!! We enjoyed yummy hot dogs & roasted marshmallows!

We have a few more Halloween events in the next week or so! More pictures to come:)

Happy Grandparents Day!

We had the pleasure in celebrating Grandparents Day yesterday with Grandma Fehrmann at her retirement community. There were all sorts of games & fun things to do. We all had a great time!!

We finished up the day with a yummy ice cream!

Let's give this another try...

You may have noticed...it has been a REALLY long time since our last post. About the time of the last post, we discovered the world of Facebook. At that point, we thought we could update things there & wouldn't need to do it here as well. That was all until about a week ago. I was feeling a little nostalgic & pulled up the blog...reading through many of the posts. It was then I realized that the blog was sort of acting like a journal. I had all sorts of memories & thoughts written down...along with pictures.

So, in an effort to keep a written memory of our family life...I have decided to get back into the blogging world again. Maybe no one will ever read it...but at the very least I will have a written record for my kids someday.

In an effort to catch everyone up to speed...

• Kenny has officially started school this year. His is attending all-day kindergarten. He has a great teacher & he seems to be liking things so far! Here is a picture of Kenny...taken on his first day of school a couple of weeks ago!

• John is going through a phase of rapid development. His speech really has taken off...watch out...he will repeat anything you say! He loves to cuddle with his stuffed animals. I think he has an entire zoo in his crib every night when he goes to bed! And, don't want to leave him out...here is a recent pic of John as well...
  
  
  

Like I said...I have no idea if anyone will actually have a desire to read my posts, but I do plan on updating as things happen. Ideally, I will post at least once a month.
