This has been a pretty good month despite the revolving door of sick we seem to be stuck in. We have seen Willow's first report card, (I was right - she is smart) Hayden is finally saying his name and we have been so sick that we were forced to come together as a family in ways we have never before.
I am calling this entire month fall break. We have all pretty much been stuck together like a sticky sickly glue for most of Sept and all of October and the never ending rain we have seen has made it that much more so. I'm not complaining though, life is what it is and I suppose all this togetherness was needed. The rain maybe not so much but I'm still alive and we are coming out of this mess a better family.
We did manage to make it out of the house on the rare occasion that the sun came out and no one was running a fever or throwing up.
The Autumn Children's Festival at the Riverpark was lots of fun and it benefited the Ronald McDonald house. The kids had a blast and helped out an awesome cause.
Ponies and inflatable slides - The kids were in heaven.
Grandma and grandpa also came to visit. We had planned a nice camping/fishing trip but the weather turned - AGAIN and Brandy was sick. So, we stayed in for the weekend and enjoyed each other.
Hayden was in heaven.
We carved pumpkins.

We did make it out for a hike or two. We met up with Brandy's brothers for a nice hike and dinner one night and of course the great cloudland hikes (see previous blogs : )
LIFE IS GOOD
