Sept 1 - 30, 2009

Sept. 30, 2009

Out come the rain boots - torrential downpour! You'd think it's Spring, not Autumn.


Sept. 29, 2009

Nothing says Autumn like being buried in leaves!
 

Sept. 28, 2009

TJ making her own lunch... AND her sister's. Growing up more every day.



Sept. 27, 2009

The winds here are absolutely crazy! THIS officially beats out Chicago for the windy city award!
 
Sept. 26, 2009

An evening out with some great ladies from the ward after the General Relief Society broadcast.
 
Sept 25, 2009

The kids did their Terry Fox run today. I caught them as they passed by our house.
 
Sept. 24, 2009

While waiting for a photoshoot to begin, I snapped this photo. Quiet tranquility. I wish my life were as tranquil~!
 
Sept 23, 2009

The weather has been so warm this week, we took every opportunity to walk to and from school.
 
Sept. 22, 2009

Visiting the geese at the lake near the Legislative building.
 
Sept. 21, 2009

The older girls tried their best to cheer up BB after she lost the game of Chutes and Ladders. It did eventually work! (These pics were taken on our phone - sorry for the quality!)
 
Sept. 20, 2009

Playing on the Wii! Always entertaining :)
 
Sept. 19, 2009

An amazing night out with great friends, great food, and great music! My first night at the symphony!
 
Sept. 18, 2009

Lining up for their turn at the pinata at Justus' birthday party!
 
Sept. 17, 2009

I've been enjoying the time I still have together with JJ on the days when she's not in Pre-School. I'll miss these days.
 
Sept. 16, 2009

Bumble Bees busy gathering the last pollen before the cold weather sets in!
 
Sept. 15, 2009

JJ's first day of Pre-Kindergarten (our school system's pre-school program). I was just a little teary eyed to see her looking so grown up!
 
Sept. 14, 2009

Collecting slugs from our garden. Ew!
 
Sept. 13, 2009

Listening to Elder Gibbons from the quorum of the 70 was such a highlight to my week. He was so uplifting, so encouraging, and offered what I want to take as my new mantra "You're better than you think you are!". Amen!
 
Sept. 12, 2009

Saturday spent purging and organizing our STUFF. It looked worse before it got better, but it felt amazing to get rid of clutter and give us some breathing room!
 
Sept. 11, 2009

With JJ starting pre-kindergarten soon, I am going to miss our quiet time in the mornings. She plays so nicely on her own, but she is more than ready for a little more.
 
Sept. 10, 2009

Meet the teacher night at school! The girls have been blessed with wonderful teachers - so kind, smart, and fun.
 
Sept. 9, 2009

TJ was so proud to plan, organzie, and carry out a fun picnic/bike ride date with her daddy.
 
Sept. 8, 2009

TJ the fashionista! She comes up with some fun outfits - putting together the perfect accessories, sometimes matching, sometimes throwing conformity to the wind. I'm excited to see where her fashion sense takes her.
 
Sept. 7, 2009

Fun at Pumpkin Hollow on our Labour Day Monday.
 
Sept. 6, 2009

This is a regular sight around our place Sunday mornings. The girls are only allowed their scriptures, a notebook, and a pen in sacrament meeting, and they remain quiet and reverent (MOST of the time). I'll miss seeing those little tiny scripture cases as they grow.
 
Sept. 5, 2009

Yes, it's September, but still warm enough for Freezie Pops! Yum!
 
Sept. 4, 2009

Time to get to work scrapbooking!
 
Sept. 3, 2009

B looked so beautiful today. I caught a glimpse of the young woman she is becoming. Such beauty.
 
Sept. 2, 2009

HOT today! Hot enough for a picnic and play time at a water park.
 
Sept. 1, 2009

The older girls in school - JJ and I enjoyed a hot chocolate at the Book and Brier to celebrate one of last mornings just hanging out together.
