Fall has been GREAT!!

We are enjoying our fall with many trips to the parks, jungle and time in the backyard - making the most of the fall warmth before it leaves us!
The biggest news about fall is London turned ONE!  We had the most amazing day celebrating what joy, love and life she has brought to our family.  She started her journey into this world in a way that no one expected and probably in a way she didn't want to but wow has she been strong and showed us who is boss ;)
We are enjoying the ups and downs of having a 2 year old that is about to turn 3 in the house - always pushing our buttons but also always giving us a surprise with his endless words and jokes ;0  It is never a dull or silent moment at the dinner table which is had every night and mom's favorite part of her day!

Take a look at our growing kids and you can see in each photo the light they provide to the family and how they live every day to the fullest!

Our First Summer of a Family of 4 Came to an End

Yes we were sad to see summer go but welcomed our wonderful Fall with open arms.  We ended the summer at the cabin where it was a beautiful weekend with sun, fishing, relaxing, driving the 4 wheeler and plenty of time with Grandpa & Grandma Schmitt.
We still entered fall with a lot of adventure, curiosity and colds :(  London has had 2 ear infections, Mom is terribly sick right now and Duke and Dad some how has not caught it yet.  We are about to celebrate London's first birthday which came so fast but yet seems like years ago we started the adventure of adding her to our family.
London is walking and Duke is still running these days.  Duke's personality is starting to shine through London but yet they will never be a like.  Take a look at some of the fun times we have had to end summer and start fall with a bang!
