The Lovely Month of October

This is one of my favorite pictures from the month. Tom and Esther were going to a Daddy/Daughter Halloween Party. They were so excited to be dressed up as superheroes. We love our superheroes in this family.








The kids had so much fun dressing up. Emery was a lamb; Esther was Supergirl; Rebekah was Hannah Montana; and Ben was The Thing. We carved pumpkins and had a lot of fun!





We went to two different pumpkin patches for field trips for Ben and Rebekah!!









Mommy spent a lot of time baking. She made her first homemade apple pie--from scratch. Thanks Amy!! She made Esther's school treats for her birthday, cupcakes for the Autumnfest and for the party and some Halloween candy. And this was all in one day!!












We made some fun witches shoes for the kids' teachers and mommy's visiting teachers!!










Esther turned 9. She had a really fun craft party. She had lots of friends come and it was the quietest, calmest party we've ever thrown. If this is what it means for them to get older, we're okay with that. It was great. Happy Birthday Esther. We love you.
