Nanna comes to town

Nanna came to visit this weekend and we celebrated her 60th birthday a little early with a cake on Saturday.

Chris took care of our fire starting needs
Chloe is wearing her Halloween costume every day now, just to make sure she is still happy with it!

Olivia's Soccer team

Chris coached both girls' soccer teams this year and they had a lot of fun together.
Olivia loved playing defense and forward.
Chris rallying the team. They only lost one game and tied one, all the rest they won. We are having an ice cream social tonight to celebrate such a victorious season.

Baby Olive

We have been watching a baby once a week for a friend from church. The girls love to hold her!

Naomi lost her first tooth yesterday, pulling it out herself after eating a wild apple. She surprised herself and her mother! What a brave girl
