Day 273/365

(Photo taken on saturday 10/1)
The kids wanted to play at the park after Andrew's soccer game.
I walked around to find Katie sitting next to Andrew enjoying his post-game snack.
Little buddies.

Day 272/365

It was a beautiful sunny day today.
With cooling temperatures and rain in the forecast we seized the moment and went for a family walk.
I got lucky and caught this sweet moment between Matthew and Dan.
Possibly one of my favorite photos ever.

Day 271/365

"I'm all done with strollers!"
Katie declared today when we went to the mall.
My little girl keeps growing up.

Day 270/365

Katie and Grace after pre-school.
When Mick was spied through the van window, there was no keeping the Bug inside.
A short "walk" and some petting was in order.

Day 269/365

Ever since Andrew was 2 he has had an affinity for yellow flowers.
Daffodils, Dandelions, Black Eyed Susans....
I love any flower clutched in those little hands.

Day 268/365

The kid were very excited to help me decorate for fall.
Their excitement was really fun.
Katie keeps saying, "I want to look out the window and see if it's Halloween."  :)
The countdown has officially begun!

Day 267/365

Andrew's first soccer game!
He had a great time!
He was more comfortable on defense ~ not one to steal the ball away.
But he had a GREAT time running around, and I smiled a LOT watching him.
