October...

 The past two weeks have gone by quickly without a lot of "events" to write about.  I received some wonderful pictures from the family, so I will share those today.

Elise had family pictures taken by a friend.  It's fun to see formal pictures once in a while.  The photographer really captured the kids personalities.

I don't think Dan's kids actually slept outside here, they just went out first thing in the morning.  Looks like fun, though.

Max finished up his football season. 

We were invited to the Zoo with Dan's family to celebrate his and Doyeon's birthday.  We took a lot of Merry-Go-Round pictures, but this one was the only one that turned out at all.

Sara took her girls to the Botanical Gardens.  It's free for the month of October but Roy and I haven't made it yet.  

I never would have thought that masks would be an essential item--and a fashion statement, too!

I took Ori and Doyeon to get their nails done for their birthdays.  This is the only picture I took.  Avie came over to help drop Ori off.  They had a good time together and with Jennie.  

Ila's a good sport to watch all her brother's sports activities
 (she probably doesn't have a choice).  Roy's been able to
attend several of their games.  I've been to a couple.  

Gunnar's really getting into it here.

Sunday morning we had several (4ish) inches of snow.  We badly need the moisture.  Hopefully some of the allergens will die down, also.  I'm also hoping the mosquitoes will be done for the year.    It looked really beautiful and it felt like it should be a holiday.  Apparently the kids love the snow.

Caitlyn's bridal pictures are done.  They turned out beautifully, but I wouldn't expect anything less from Christy.  Plus, she's fun to be around when she's taking the pictures.  Here's a sneak peak at a few of them.
