Getting caught up ...

The biggest reason I blog is show my mom, dad and family little snippets of the things we are up to - so I generally fall behind if they come for a visit because they are seeing things in real life.  But, I also blog as a type of journal for our family and then get it printed out each year (this is my 6th year!) ... so I need to get caught up on the things that have been happening around here.

Still lots of this going on ...

Susie finished up the Cross Country season...

 Champions, for like the 15th time in a row!

We've done a few Halloween things...

BOOing our friends and neighbors!

 A trip to Bishop's Pumpkin Patch

 Caramel Corn - YUM!

 Picking the perfect pumpkin, in the dark.

 A Girl Scout - Mummy Mash Party for Susie and her friends.

and we took the boat out one last time...

Boating along the Sacramento River and docking to eat at Chevy's is one of our favorite fall activities!

It was fun to have Grandma and Grandpa here to see and do some of these things with us :)  and we always put Grandma to work helping us sew and craft - hence the cute Halloween costume for Susie :)
