Fall is one of my favorite times of the year and this year did not disappoint!
Football season? We are so ready!
I joined the PTA board at the kids school! Little did I know what I was getting into and I am really just skimming the top. I got put in charge of school T-shirts and PTA board member T-shirts. The school shirts were ordered, but I ended up making all the shirts for the board members!
She's getting ready to move!! Look at that plank! (6 1/2 months)
Grandpa's garden was overflowing with goodness! We reaped so much from his garden, orchard and berry bushes!
Brooks spent a good portion of the summer training for his bike race. He went on a lot of long bike rides! Up the canyons and down the Murdock Trail.
Finally ready for LOTOJA! This was at the check in in Logan, UT.
Team dinner the night before the race. So many old friends for Brooks to catch up with.
We spent the night with Ben and Melissa in Garland, as we headed for Preston, ID which is where Brooks was to start his leg of the race the car broke down. We ended up in Malad, ID with a dead alternator. Ben came and rescued us by getting Brooks to his race, picking up the car part, and then changing the car part in his garage! Mel dropped everything to come get the kids, and then watched the kids all day and hosted us for another night! We saw so many miracles that day and know that the Lord had a hand in our life that day!
Our Hero!
Still smiles!
Huge thank you to the lady at the mini mart across the street from the mechanic's shop who let us hang out for a bit and charge my phone, and helped us find the park down the road!
Thanks to Ben's car knowledge and skills and YouTube we were able to get a new alternator!
Benson dressed up as a police officer for school community helpers day!
Lilly felt left out when the boys were getting school pictures! We took some pictures outside her dance class one morning to document her 3 year old self! When I told her to stand by the tree this first pose was the first thing she did. Apparently this is how she imagines school pictures! :)
Spencer has been loving cub scouts over the past few months and got his Bobcat this month! Way to go Spencer!
