What a Month!

September seems to have been busy busy busy (and will probably continue to be so). Here's a brief run-down of what we've been up to.

1.) Enjoying Autumn walks.




















2.) Feeding Ducks


















3.) Lots of Laundry














4.) Goofing Off in General















5.) First Haircuts...


















6.) First Lollipops...


















7.) And First Hockey Games

















8.) A Trip to the zoo to see the new bears, seals, and otters.
























9.) Welcoming this little cutie to the family:



















Ian & Victoria welcomed Rowan on September 10th. She's a cutie, and such a calm quiet little girl! I'm so excited for Emmett to have a new cousin around.

And, though I have no pictures of this one, Josh is transferring schools AND programs. We're not yet sure how this will set his graduation date back. We're hoping that most of his credits will transfer, since the new program is still business-heavy in classes. He's going to get a degree as a health-fitness specialist. We're both excited and nervous about the change and the possibilities and opportunities it can bring us. We're also excited, as the temperatures get cooler and cooler, to see what Fall has in store for us!

Out Goes the Summer...

...and in comes the Fall. Alright, maybe Fall hasn't quite arrived yet, but the temperatures are cooler and the leaves are starting to change, so it's definitely on it's way. And I am excited. I love fall, mostly because it means the holidays are on their way. For the "the Holidays" start with Halloween, since it's one of our favorites!

So how did we end the summer? Well, I hosted my first baby shower for my cousin Victoria. Their little girl Rowan is due any day now. For my first shower I think it turned out quite nicely:

<--- YUMMY!
 <--- Cute!
 <--- "Fluffy Punch!"
<--- Stork Bundles










Can't wait to meet little Rowan!

We also did some finger painting:
















And enjoyed the opening of University of Utah Football season!
















And because I haven't mentioned my pups in awhile, here's my sweet Toby chillin' on Emmett's triceratops.
