Fall Photos!




























Thanks-mas? (Christ-giving?)

We've been celebrating an early Christmas in Londesborough this weekend since we won't be able to travel over Christmas. We exchanged names, had a big dinner and even had a tree up! Poor Evan is quite confused. He's been wishing people a Merry Christmas all weekend, and has no idea what Thanksgiving is.

The boys got a wonderfully noisy set of musical instruments from Uncle Michael, Tante Brenda & Jacob. It was enjoyed by everyone!
Just wait till next Christmas, Tante Brenda! I have a feeling we'll be getting you back! :)


The boys each got a big tractor from Oma & Opa and have been playing with them non-stop.

It was great to see everyone, and we had a great time!

Fall Activities

We stopped at the pumpkin patch a few days ago and the kids just loved it. They were both distracted by a nearby tractor plowing the fields.



This is Darren and his cousin Eli

We stopped by to see Sarah and her kids this afternoon. Evan said, as we were walking up to the front door, "I'm so excited to be here!!"
They had a little tea party.

First Steps!

Darren took his first independent steps yesterday! He pushes a little toy in front of him, and finally decided that it is time to push it and step toward it!! Still not that steady, and not doing it very often, but he's doing it! I think he is waiting till we get to Oma & Opa's house to practice some more!
