Fall is here!

I was really digging summer this year and could have used a few more warm days.  But alas, October, flannel, and pumpkins arrived and (eventually) my Fall spirit followed.

We have yet to take the kids to the pumpkin patch (Mamie and Papa did while we were at Oktoberfest last weekend!), but we're enjoy the cooler weather and the comfort food that comes along with it  :)

Here are some pictures of what we've been up to this past month:

Oh yes I did  :)

Bustin' a move, Bavarian style 

We've been spending a lot of time in Leavenworth but also here at home, settling in.  We went furniture shopping this week and plan to start working on some projects soon.  Things are coming along!

Kevin's Aunt and Uncle (hi Jennie and Dave!) are in town from Michigan right now, so they're coming to visit this afternoon!  Having people over is what makes this house feel like home, so we can't wait to welcome them.

Enjoy the weekend, and maybe a little pumpkin spiced latte  ;)

Lake Wenatchee

Happy Birthday, Kevin! We spent an awesome 4 days on Lake Wenatchee this past weekend; relaxing by the lake, (attempting) to fish, playing in the water, and enjoying quality time together as a family.  Our parents joined us on Saturday afternoon to celebrate Kevin's birthday; a wonderful day full of family, food, and the great outdoors. Weekend highlights include Fish Lake on Friday (Abigail and i will not be invited back for the next fishing adventure...we may have mangled the line more than once), a trip into Leavenworth for pizza and dancing at the gazebo, a steak feast for Kevin's birthday, and relaxing by the bonfire that evening. Here are some pictures of our trip. Friday at Fish Lake "helping" Dad with his tackle While Kevin fished, Abigail and I fed Parmesan garlic pita chips to the ducks. At one point, we had a crowd of 10! Ladies of leisure on the lake  :) This sums up our fishing experience... Thursday evening f...

20 week ultrasound

Yesterday Kevin and I went to our 20 week ultrasound.  Everything looked great and the two questions still lingering in my mind were confirmed. 1) Yes, it's a boy! 2) Nope, I'm not having twins  :) I've heard it a million times: with each pregnancy you pop a little sooner, but when I was in maternity pants at 12 weeks, I thought surely there must be two in there... Here are some pictures, if you'd like to see. During George's 20 week ultrasound Kevin admitted he'd almost fallen asleep, so I will admit: I had a hard time staying awake this time  :) But we did get to see him in 4D ultrasound which we've never done before, so that was really cool. So fun! After our appointment we went to breakfast at Salish Lodge and took my first Month of Bumps picture. (cue shrills of excitement from everyone eager to see belly pics for the next 4 months!) Before taking the picture I (lovingly) assured Kevin that yes, we would be taking...

It's Santa Time!

Kevin and I kicked it up a notch this year for our annual visit to Santa with dinner at Hamanasu followed by a night at the Hyatt! We've been waiting to make this a bigger deal (add the overnight piece) for a few years, but this was the first year we felt the kids were old enough for it - and it was sooo much fun!
