Happy Turkey Day!





This was a big year for Bijou and Jackson as they got to help on almost every dish in the kitchen. They sorted the cranberries, measured ingredients, set the table, and even learned how to make Nana's incredible pumpkin pies. I was super proud of them and thankful for two incredible kids. We had a restful and thankful couple of days spending time together!

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory






We were invited to join the Paxtons and friends to got to the Oregon Children's Theater and see, "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory!" Bij wore her new holiday dress and looked gorgeous, and Jack looked super handsom in his new shirt and sweater. They were on their best behavior and had an incredible time. This was Jack's first live theater so he was completely riveted! Infact as the Kathy and I peeked down the row of kids they all had huge eyes and open mouths! It was truelly a treat and we can't wait to go again!

Halloween Time!




Blessed with the best weather and freshly fallen leaves, it was a super Halloween. Jack aka Indiana Jones and Bijou the witch enjoyed every second.

Fall time with friends!





We had a super fun day raking leaves and playing in the yard with our best mates, Odin and Evan. The boys especially loved being monkeys in the tree.
