Hello Mr. Fall!




What month is it? Oh yeah, it's October! Call September what you want, but by October, regardless of the weather, I am busting out the scarves and cinnamon scented candles! Thankfully the trees have joined me in celebration and begun to shed their brilliantly ripened crisp leaves.
Cody and I aren't about to argue with mother nature, and so we have commenced with the fall festivities! If you are at all struggling to get into the spirit, just follow these five easy steps!
Step one: Walk around the neighborhood and soak in the beauty, taking pictures as you go!
















Marcel the Shell loves the fall too!

Step two: Go to a pumpkin patch!













































Step three: Make apple cider! Or buy it if you want to save time...


 Feel free to do some juggling as you go...





























Step four: Carve pumpkins!





Step five: Go get pumpkin pancakes at J's 99 Grill!




And BOOM, you should by this time be thoroughly enjoying this fall season.



You are welcome

Cody and I have been volunteering at Falls City Christian Church  for a couple months now, where we take turns each month, teaching a lesson to the kiddos. Not to brag, but we have discovered the keys to a successful lesson: games and candy. This month, I chose to stray from the typical 'bible story' theme and go over how to pray in general. Praying is such a beautiful, powerful and important aspect of our relationship with God. I mean come on, we stinkin' get free 24 hr access to talk to the CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE. This trumps having Theo James's personal number on my speed dial, which I do; in my dreams. Come Sunday, I was giddy with excitement to teach my lesson! My growing anticipation was stunted however when alas, no children attended church that morning. Bummer eh? Not anymore! because luckily, I have this nifty little blog. So here it is; a 'would-have-been-epic' lesson on prayer! Open your hand and take a look, there should be fiv...

Don't worry it's totally normal...I think.

Parenthood is something else. The odd things I have begun to do are probably typical, at least I tell myself that! Here are some new things that I find happening every-so-often. If you can relate, wonderful, that means we can pretend this stuff is normal together!

A Belated Update

February 23, 2018 Dear friends and family,  Hello to you! We write this from the Salem NICU. Here we sit and watch the sky lighten and darken in a morphed cycle of hours that have all blended together. Cody and I have received your text messages and read your Facebook comments. Please accept our  apologies for the lack of information or response. Here is an update for all of you who have been wondering about our current situation. Where to start? We found out we were expecting, approximately three days after Cody cancelled his vasectomy and relented to go for “one more baby”. At 15 weeks I measured what would be a normal 20 week size. Two heart beats would clear up that confusion. Surprise! Cody replaced his hesitations about having three children with extreme excitement to have four. I however, was slightly terrified. They say if you can manage three kids that you can manage any number....I guess we’ll find out!  Loe and behold, our twin gir...
