| Family hike at Leita Thompson Park trails |
 |
| Cool nature finds! |
 |
| Back to school Friday park play date |
 |
| Arts and crafts - painting Henry's volcano |
 |
| Nicholas got his round 1 of braces off after having them for 1 year |
 |
| This little guy played on a soccer team for the first time. Technically a couple months too young to sign up, he was ready to play after years of sitting on the sidelines with big brothers and sister....he loved it! |
 |
| He was the smallest one on the team by a head at least, but was such a go getter, he scored multiple goals in every single game! He played hard and loved every minute! |
 |
| Henry also played in the U8 level and had a great season as well. |
 |
| Henry's team |
 |
| He had some great friends on his team, like Davis |
 |
| And Addie ....these two buddies some how ended up both being #15...the debate still goes on today "who is the REAL #15?" :-) |
 |
| Cub scout meetings - Henry was so excited to finally officially be a cub scout and participating with his own den...at this meeting they were making bird feeders |
 |
| Our friends the Schoeoneckes showered us with love when Dad died, they had Shawn and the kids over for dinner while I was away working on arrangements, etc. They cut open their giant watermelon grown in their garden. |
 |
| Samuel has become a puzzle man |
 |
| Fun with friends at the parish fall festival |
 |
| And this friend from the Knights of Columbus, Mr McGivney, is one of the boys' favorites |
 |
| Henry walked away with many (too many) big wins at the cake walk, the biggest of which was this "death by chocolate" cake from Alpine Bakery! |
 |
| Henry sanded and stained the bird house he and Grandpa had made together this last summer - this was a bitter sweet moment. |
 |
| Grace's class visited the nursing home for their class service project. |
 |
| This retired priest there gave her a special blessing. |
 |
| These two were our toothless twins for awhile - both missing their 2 front teeth at the same time. |
 |
| Shawn and I attended the Regnum Christi gala at the GA Aquarium. We went with the men (and their wives) from his Encounter group (pictured here). |
 |
| Nicholas and Grace performed their fall piano recital at the St George Village nursing home - it was Halloween weekend so they donned their costumes for the occasion! |
 |
| Samuel carved our fmaily pumpkin for us this fall |
 |
| Fall uniform time..... |
 |
| And never to be left out....our little pumpkin! |
 |
| Henry's favorite time of year is the fall...when all the leaves require a lot of yard work, his favorite! |
 |
| Of course, this what the others prefer to do with the leaves |
 |
| Henry played basketball for the first time and relaly enjoyed it. |
 |
| Samuel loves his new bike - rides it whenever he gets a moment - anytime we are leaving or coming home into the garage, he hops on for quick ride. |
 |
| Fun at his preschool fall festival |
 |
| The kids made a blanket for Grandma to comfort her. |
 |
| Shawn and I officially incorporated into Regnum Christi. We've been active with the movement for the past couple years and have grown spiritually as individuals and as a family. We find it is a great group particularly for immersing our family into the faith and how to live it in our daily lives. We are blessed and thankful to be a part of this wonderful movement in the church. |
 |
| Shawn stepped down as official race director for the SPC 5 K this year (after running it for 4 years) but of course was still very involved in helping with it - here's there 3am waffle house crew before they set up the course on race day. |
 |
| Henry loves to be a Knights of Columbus man like Daddy and Grandpa so instead of running the race he chose to help with it with Shawn. |
 |
| The younger kids were under the weather so I stayed home with them. Nicholas ran it himself and did great! |
 |
| So proud of you Nicholas! |
