October

My challenge was to only pick 10 pictures this month...I settled for 12:)

#1:  Unfortunately while dad was in Wyoming elk hunting I got hit by another vehicle, leaving me without a car.  Thanks to my dear friend Leah, she came to the rescue!  Just got my car back and it feels so good:)


#2:  Harvest of Harmony parade with my loves prior to their final soccer games!


#3:  Dad was finally home so we cuddled up for a movie on the mattress in the basement:)


#4:  Reeve got to dance for Dancers Against Cancer!


#5 and 6:  My babies and their elementary school pictures!  That's a wrap for Joden.  My favorites are Kindergarten and 4th grade:). Reeve, that little stinker, adjusted her hair this year prior to pictures...not my favorite although her smile is pretty great.  My other favorite would be 1st grade!



 #7:  Imagination Bacon event with my dear friends whom I met through coaching basketball!  Love how life leads you down paths that connect you to others who will be in your life from then on:)


#8:  Books with mom!  


#9:  Gates Elementary Pumpkin Patch night!  


#10:  Red Ribbon Week at Gates.  Friday was dress like your on the Red Carpet!  They both look pretty great:). Joden said he was business red carpet and Reeve stated she was sassy red carpet!


#11:  Our niece entered the world!  This is Blair Justine, born on 10.26.19.  We cannot wait to meet her:). 


#12:  Trick or Treating with a unicorn and a monster zombie!  Parenting is for sure a journey and as Joden is embarking on his last year of elementary school some of the feels are coming out for me.  As we trick or treated I kept thinking about how I am not sure how many more of these we will have!  Incredibly crazy how fast it all goes by.


~For he will not often consider the years of his life, because God keeps him occupied with the gladness of his heart.                                                                           Ecclesiastes 5:20
