Two of Adrianna’s friends biked over to our house after school for a surprise visit. She was still in her pajamas when they showed up! Haha! They actually had texted her to let her know of their plan, but she always forgets to check her messages, so that’s why their visit was a surprise! I […]

Autumnal Eeyah
I love this picture Bree made so much. From the bird feeder filled with candy corn to the hummingbird feeder filled with apple cider (including cinnamon sticks) and the falling leaves floating in the wind. She even included the pumpkins she and Cate carved (on the chickadee feeder.) And of course her seahorse, Eeyah, is […]
Mooshka
We’ve had this sweet pup for 3.5 months and we all adore her. She’s a pretty good dog. She’s had a few accidents in the house, but those are getting fewer and fewer as she learns to “tell” us that she needs to go out and we learn what those signals are. We found out […]
Quarantine Cuts
Bree and Cate decided they wanted me to cut their hair short (at Adrianna’s encouragement.) They both gave me input as to the lengths they wanted. And here is Adrianna’s cut from September 23rd.
Carving Pumpkins
Greg helped the girls carve their pumpkins – a first for both of them, I think! Bree made her pumpkin an Eeyah and Cate made hers Bubbin (a made up pony.) They were a little grossed out to take out the innards, but they did it! And when they saw Greg starting to carve their […]
Trail Less Traveled By
While walking the trail near our house today, we took the advice of Robert Frost and “took the one less traveled by.” The girls and I (and Moose) enjoyed exploring and the beautiful foliage. “And that has made all the difference.â€
Annual Visit to the Pumpkin Patch
We made our annual visit to a local pumpkin patch. Adrianna was feeling a little sad about not being with friends this time, as the past couple of years we’ve visited with some of her friends. We chose a smaller pumpkin patch and went on a weekday in the hopes that it wouldn’t be too […]
Our September – One Second Every Day
Conference Get-away
Because of COVID-19, the third Evolving Faith conference was virtual this year. To still try to get some semblance of “getting away” to attend, I decided to stay in a local hotel for a couple of nights. Adrianna came with me. We ordered delivery for our meals and she worked on homework (or chatted with […]
Sun Day
With the autumn leaves changing colors in the mountains and the number of nice, warm days coming soon to a close, I decided the girls and I should take a “sun” day off of school to take advantage of a nice weekday. We drove up to Guanella Pass, starting at Georgetown and stopping at Clear […]
