all about aunts

This weekend was full of great time seeing Jeremy's sisters, minus one.

Off we go to have fun..and Tyler stops to pose for his senior picture



First we went to Willaim Jewell College to pick up Sarah...It's beautiful....
















can you see KC?


Then we celebrated becca's 21st birthday - she came home for the weekend from CO


Enjoying dinner together


It was great to be with becca and sarah, and the boys loved being around their two youngest aunties. But we all missed auntie annie and can't wait until we are all together at Christmas!
Annie did send the boys a very fun Halloween present, though, which is just a hint of cute pics to come....

New Camera = New Pics!

If you know our camera history, you know that Micah was successful in hiding our old camera in a load of darks, and that it got washed. You also know that we have been borrowing a camera in order to get any pics of recent events. God in his incredible grace and goodness provided us with a new camera! It's a Canon Powershot SD800, and it is awesome! We have been enjoying it ever since. Here are some of the new pics...

The fall colors hang on here much longer than in Colorado, and we are constantly amazed at their vibrance


Tyler also continues to be the cutest baby boy ever



And the brothers are growing closer and playing together more and more

happy fall to all! cuddle up under a blanket, watch a good movie, drink some hot cocoa and think of us!

Time for a haircut

As you know, Micah has been sporting a long, skater, shaggy look for quite some time now. We have loved it, but recently it got out of control - it was in his eyes, it was starting to go mullet style, and we all knew it was time for a change. So, remembering his last experience with a haircut at a salon (the stylist CUT HIS EAR and there was blood everywhere, not to mention a crying 2-year old) I decided to take out the scissors and give him a little trim. He ended up looking like my barbies used to look when I would give them a new style - butchered. So, I took him to a local place I had heard of that was just for kiddos- Shear Madness. He not only got to play with blocks and soccer balls while he waited, but during the actual haircut he was in a RACE CAR, and got to watch his favorite show - DORA! Afterwards he got a lolipop and was asking to do it all over again! So, without further delay......

After!!!!

He looks great, and is pretty proud of his new style!
Grandparents, REJOICE!
