Fall festivities

Pack's Pumpkin Patch

 Enjoyed a great visit to Gardner Village to do some witch hunting

cleopatra, a pirate princess, and a mermaid

Not sure I'll do this every year but this year I cleaned out the pumpkins ahead of time so carving didn't take so long.  It was a success as you can see from the smiles.

we had a awesome bunch join us this year

First Half of October

Celebrating our sweet baby Isaac's birthday with traditional treat making.  This year was especially hard since he would have turned 8.  So blessed to be the mom to these amazing people.  So happy they always include and think of Isaac.  My heart may just burst!

Letty was apart of a speech contest.  She did great.

no monkey business here

she loves her little bro, sometimes too much :)

We were able to drive up to Fracis Peak home of some very noticeable radar towers.  T-man had a hankering to go check it out.  About half way up I was ready to turn around.  It was a narrow unpaved path that frankely just stressed me out.  We got out here where I got a shot of these cuties.  Luckily after this point the roads got wider.

but man was it cold up there I guess it was bound to be at 9500 ft. 

and we got to enjoy this awesome wonder

Getting settled
