life illustrated

Thanks to all who have endured all of my rambling posts of working through the changes and emotions of adjusting and moving and change...this post will not require focus or concentration, just lots of pictures for your enjoyment! I have a bunch of pictures from Halloween too, but I will save those for a separate post.

P.S. I am loving all of the comments, emails and calls with advice from this post. I have lots to explore thanks to your suggestions, but still have some unanswered questions if you want to weigh in! :)

Apple Picking at a family owned orchard nearby
I have been canning applesauce all week!
apple picking

We finally made it to an orchard to get some apples the last weekend in October at a little family owned Orchard outside of Salem. We got lots of varieties of apples and picked over 60 lbs for $24. Yay for apples!

Pumpkin Patch: 
Brynn, Ellie and I got to go with some friends from our ward while the big kids were at school.
Brynn got to go with the ward friends' preschool co-op to the pumpkin patch. We had fun taking the hayride to the patch and picking out Brynn sized pumpkins. I love my sweet little Brynnie girl!
How about this one, Mom?

Yep...you are adorable little Bean girl!

Playing in the Cul De Sac
Our house is on a circle that all the neighbors refer to as "the cul de sac" because it is completely flat so it is where everyone comes to ride bikes, play basketball, and play fetch with the dog. The kids, of course, love it too!
We love living on a cul de sac. It is so fun to go out in the circle and ride bikes, play basketball and run around...even if they try and take out the photogra-mama with their big wheels.

Ballerinas
The girls love taking ballet and I love seeing them in their little leotards and tutus!
Don't mind Brynn's bed-head...we have to wake her up from her nap to go to dance.
