Sunday Dylan got some plumbing lessons with Chris as they worked to repipe our master bathroom.
Payton read aloud to me out on the swing.
Monday when the kiddos got home from school, Rylan crawled up into my lap to nuggle buggle.
That evening at dinner {which by the way was Burgers with Secret Sauce} Dylan was telling an animated story and accidentally flipped the spoon out of the secret sauce bowl and it sprayed everywhere! The light, the wall, the plant, the table and even in his hair. It happened in super slow motion and all we could do was laugh. It was so funny.
Fall is here and showing off its beauty. God is an amazing artist and uses amazing colors!
Chris decided to surprise the kiddos with slushies and even though Rylan was already showered and in his pajamas, he threw on shoes and ran out the door.
Tuesday morning, little guy woke up all on his own and came and nuggled with me.
We got to stop and watch these 5 deer on our way to school.
while King Bombi enjoyed some sun.
Heading home from TKD, the sunset was spectacular!
Amazing, right?
It was chilly enough that we had our first fire of the season.
Wednesday morning we were a few minutes early to the kids dentist appointment and we saw their old school buses outside of Starbucks {where the drivers meet up every morning}. We went in to give hugs to Mr. T & Mr. Gerry {The BEST bus drivers ever. We miss them a whole bunch!}
Then they got in some tv time at the dentist while they were waiting. Ha!
The kids LOVE going to the dentist, primarily because they have a VW Bus INSIDE the waiting room for them to play in.
We got to run into some friends from our old neighborhood at WalMart.
And since it was 46 degrees outside, we put on another fire.
Thursday It may be chilly, but it is sure beautiful!
Little mad stayed home sick today, and when it warmed up a bit we went outside and enjoyed the warm sun.
Bombi LOVES his rope. Throw him a ball and he gets bored quickly. But his rope he will fetch over and over again!
So funny story.
There was a knock on our door this morning. It was a guy from the county telling us that as he was bush hogging the side of the road, he obliterated our mailbox. He apologized and said they would be replacing it. As we chatted, I commented that I didn't like that mailbox anyway. {It looked like this:
but it was old, and not well kept. It had random house number stickers all over it and it didn't look good.} He said, "Oh you don't want a green one?" I asked if I got a choice and he said how about a metal one and I said, "great!". When I left to pick up the big kids just FOUR hours later, I drove down to this:
Isn't it awesome? And it was done super quick! {I was expecting it to take a couple of days!} AND now I don't have to replace our mailbox!

Friday morning was absolutely stunning.
Ry stayed home from school again {poor guy!}. He did a whole bunch of this all day.
And I got lots of snuggles in.
