Thanksgiving

We have had a mild and wet fall, and while the leaf season was mediocre we did have some nice color.



Ruthann demonstrated her jungle decorating skills for the pack meeting in October



Alyssa enjoyed her 24th birthday!





We had an enjoyable Turkey Day in Dallas with the Bowmans





And we completed our traditional decorating tasks on Black Friday!

Fall has come!

So while it has been some time since the last posting, much has been happening in our lives.



Leah and Ben came to visit in September for a few days.  Of course aside from the Cozy Coupe we enjoyed the Zoo ...



And as always, the highlight had to be the ride on the zoo train ...



We really enjoyed having the time with Leah and Ben while the summer lingered and look forward to Ruthann and Alyssa's visit to Pulman for Ben's birthday.

Speaking of birthdays we had a good time with the Howells for Carver's 4th Birthday ...



Carver had a group of friends join in birthday party fun including painting little cars, duck-duck-goose, london bridges, and of course enjoying birthday cupcakes!






Clearly Carver's favorite gift was his power tool set.  He was very safety conscious.  He wore the goggles regularly and loved playing with the various toy power tools - just like daddy!



We also had a chance to watch Lydia's soccer match in the beautiful autumn sunshine ...




We have been enjoying the color of the season!



And hope you have too!
