Another big update...

I've decided that my blog posts aren't long because I don't post for such a long time, but because we do too many fun things as a family, I just can't keep up.

Since my last post so many things have happened. First of all, our dearest Narcy passed away. She died early in the morning on Saturday October 10th. We were shocked to hear the news. She will be missed greatly by all of us. We have so many cherished memories of Narcy that will never be forgotten. She holds a very special place our hearts, and always will. We miss you and love you Narcy, but we know you are watching down on us from heaven.

Kyle's football team had another big win this weekend. It was a very cold Saturday morning here in Minnesota for football. Can you believe we had snow already?? Well we did and Kyle had to play football in the bitter cold. I'm not sure who was colder the kids playing football or the fans. We certainly froze watching him. I'm hoping this weekend is a bit warmer. This weekends game is a big game because the team they are going against is undefeated too. So it should be a good match up and we're anxious to see who the winner is.




Sunday we took the kids to the pumpkin patch and apple orchard. We had a lot of fun taking the hay ride up to the orchard and pumpkin patch. We took pictures, walked part of the corn maze, picked out our pumpkins, picked apples, and looked at some animals. We all had a great time, even though the weather was chilly.






When we got home the kids and I decided to warm up by having hot apple cider while we made some homemade applesauce. It was a lot of work but the kids really pitched in to help me get it done. Even Ava helped by sitting in her high chair, like a good girl, eating apples while we cut, peeled and mashed the apples. It was a lot of fun and the kids have been enjoying the apple sauce ever since...Ava especially. She hasn't been a fan of her applesauce baby food, but sure loves her Mommy's homemade stuff.







As you can see it was another great weekend with the family.
