Family Pictures!

We have not had professional pictures taken since Dane was 7 months old. It was time. We had them scheduled for mid-October so we could have the fall colors present. Well, this year, the colors weren't very vivid. Bummer. And on this particular day, Cash was not interested in smiling. At all...








We really like the pictures (even without Cashie's sweet smile and even with Dane's cheesy camera smile)! We had a lot of fun, too!

What a Difference a Week Makes--

Last week we had bitter cold and snow for a few days. It was beautiful except for that fact that it was the 2nd week in October. Come on Mother Nature! I love fall too much to start getting excited for Christmas. And that's what the first snowfall does to me. It triggers Christmas songs and wrapping presents. Fun stuff, but just not yet.

The snow excited Dane who has been talking about sledding since last winter. And Ross. Who couldn't wait to get home and sled with him.




Crazy Daddy and Crazy Dane.


It was terribly hard to get a picture of both Cash and Dane looking. This was the best one.


Rolling the first ball to begin making his first ever snowman!


The finished product--complete with screwdriver nose and ears!!
(and used all the snow that was in the yard!)


Dane has been working on his big puzzles lately and he does them on his own and so well. He gets very proud of himself--as he should!

Even in his unders he is so darn cute!

Ross brought the boys to the Pumpkin Festival in Otsego this past weekend. Dane had a blast climbing, jumping and playing games.




A little snuggle with their best daddy!

Then on Sunday we took a family trip to the park. A little jogging, biking and playing is a great way to spend the day!


Daddy and Cash!


This little biker would ride all day if we let him!


Cool picture, huh?!




Such goofballs!



Hi Mom!

Lastly we spent the day at my Mom's playing outside. Dane tried to help rake, but that lasted all of 1 minute.



This is more like it!

Next up...Halloween! "Gang...it looks like we've got a mystery on our hands."

Nothing New

We haven't done much around here the past few weeks. Still trying to recover and become healthy-hasn't kept the boys from being rambunctious, but slowed them down just a smidgen.


Cash loves, loves Dane. When he hears "Dane or Buggie" he squeals with such delight! He is always hugging and kissing his big brother. Most times Dane is receptive, but occasionally he gets upset. It is, by far, the cutest thing I have ever seen!


(A blurry picture, but still adorable)-Brothers enjoying a little snack together in their jammers!


Hmmm...I like this one!
Cash helping pick out new carpet!


Playing catch with Great-Uncle Greg and 2nd cousins Daniel and Patrick at Great-Grandma Jo's 80th birthday. I didn't get a picture of the birthday girl, but Happy Birthday Joann!


Cash watching the big boys in amazement.

It's been freezing out and we are all hoping for a warm-up before winter officially starts. It's just too early for this cold. Ugh.
