Photoshoot

I was trying to find a time to do a little photoshoot for Will being one. It was a really bad idea to go to a park to do pictures. We had no idea where to do it. I know better now! There is still some cute pictures to share.

 Michael told Brock to hold Wills hand

 And he escaped!!

Our perfect Fall day

We took the boys to a pumpkin patch one day when Michael had a little break from his externship. It ended up being just a perfect day!
First we checked out the animals:

 Will has no fear!

 Fed them

 He was laughing so hard!

Next we searched for our pumpkins:

 We found a tractor to play on:

 Played in the corn pit:

 We had lunch at village in and came home for a nice nap. The day got cold and rainy so we carved pumpkins on the floor inside.

  I let the boys paint some little pumpkins too

 Brock was a big help!

 All he wanted to do was blow the candles out!

We ended the day with homemade popcorn on the cob and apple cider from the farm, delicious!
 

Michael turns 30

on October 3rd Michael turned 30! He only had staff meeting so we got the day off. I went to Pleasant Grove with him, and the boys and I played at parks and went shopping until he was done. Then we checked out a fun Italian place (the sweet zucchini) delicious! We came home for naps and got ready for a little birthday party, Michaels mom and some of his brothers, sisters and neices and nephews came. It was fun to have it at our house! We had BiBimBop A favorite Korean dish we learned how to make recently (not sure how it went over though!) and Cinnamon cake (really really good!!) We got all the toys out and had a lot of fun playing! It was really nice outside and I think he had a great birthday. 

Michael also got an email that he won a Scholarship that afternoon! And that he rocked part 3 of boards. 

 Thanks everyone 

September

So I really didn't want to do this month. Frankly its been hard and exhausting, I mean I have loved being close to family but we have just had some bad luck. In trying to be more positive instead of telling you all that happened I am going to do 30 happy things that happened this month. 30 for 30 days of the month of September. I frankly don't even want to think about any of our bad luck again anyways!!
