Hanging out

We took a little break to play outside one afternoon. It was an unusually warm fall day. We enjoyed the time with GranT and her great backyard.

Wyatt found this divot in the wood that was filled with water. He
decided it was a bowl. I can see the reasoning.

 

Wyatt calls the dinner bell in the background a hat.

Welcome Home

I love fall!! I love it so much that I put up my fall decorations in
August. Hey, don't judge me! Here is just a little sneak peek at my
house.

Fall play

Fall is fast approaching. Wyatt and I enjoyed taking our first fall
walk with GranT and a dear friend to a park near GranTs house.
Although, Wyatt does loves to swing and experience new things. He
couldn't wait to get down and into the piles of fallen leaves.

Dear Friends

Wyatt has a dear friend. He has been a family friend for over 10 years
and here he is handing Wyatt a leaf. Wyatt inspected the leaf and was
fasinated by the sound of the crunching leaves under foot. Wyatt also
played in the leaves as if he was in a ball pit.

Happy pumpkin harvest!

Wyatt trying to smile for the camera too!
After the first photo shoot Beth needed to swing.

We tried a second time with a different pumpkin outfit, but the pictures didn't come out very good.

My favorite! She is trying to get Wyatt to look at the camera. Wyatt is not happy about his current situation.

She was trying to hold him up, but kept laughing and saying, "He's too heavy!"

The end! As you can see both of my models were done.

Continuing the family tradition.

We captured a C-5 taking off! Wouldn't that be a nice plane to fly!

Pumpkin Patch

Each year the OSC hosts a Fall Festival on base. This year I was not able to help due to the move and the fact that I had just had Wyatt! It was still a ton of fun. Although, Wyatt may tell you a different story.

Thanksgiving

"Thanksgiving day is a happy day and we say thank you God" This thanksgiving was a treat! I had to work the night before and I was given instructions that I needed to go right to bed when I came home and when I woke up dinner would be served. I am so blessed! Hub made the potatoes au gait the day before and the sausage stuffing. The day of he only had to make the turkey and the cranberry sauce. It was so good! For someone who picked up culinary skills a year ago, I think his cooking is above average.
We had to get dressed up for Thanksgiving because our goal was to get a decent Christmas card photo out the the event. We tried different poses and still have not decided which one to use! My favorite part was after we finished taking pictures Hub says, "Okay get all this nice stuff out of the way, I'm not eating off it!" I had to laugh! So there I had set the table with the good china, but we used our everyday dishes instead. This is the more serious side! And, this the expression I usually get after I suggest we change our outfits so that we have more pictures to choose from!

We had a great little thanksgiving and hope that you all did too!

"There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven

...A time to plant and a time to uproot". Ecc 3:1-2

Air Force families know there is a time to uproot, and a dear family is doing that right now. They are uprooting from their home and moving into a totally new season of life. It will be sad that they are leaving friends and family but, I am excited as God is shaping their life's in a new direction.

We believe in arranged marriages here at Laughlin,

meet Mr. and Mrs. Baan to be in like 20 some years!

Oh and yes we had Buckeyes, not chocolate covered peanuts butter balls.
