Autumn Stroll up AF Canyon

One of the advantages of living so close to the mountains is the strolls we take as a family. This year was no exception.  

It's been 9 months since we have even looked at our blog.  People are telling us to update it!  We have spent the weekend in Colorado Springs with Adam and his family.  He just got back from his deployment in Iraq.  It's great to have him back.

Our children are getting so big.  Ella's birthday is today, she is four!  Isaac is two, and Aubrey is 9 months now.  Crazy how fast time goes by.

Funnies

Halloween

First snowfall of the year

Late Summer Swim Party

Ella says, Isaac, let's swim.  Make sure you wear your snow hat, swim goggles, and a jacket cuz it's too cold for water in the pool.  Alright then, let's just play with the train set instead.

Groundhogs in the Yard

Wayne & Cati Vance Family

Cati and Aubrey are doing well and looking very well. Ella and Isaac are distracted as ever with every possible thing to explore. However, the novelty of having a new baby, an intruder in Isaac's case, will take a little while to wear off.

ISAAC

Humm, dad can you help me out with what I am supposed to do now? Isaac is not quite sure how he feels about losing his baby of the family status. He often points to Aubrey and then to her car seat indicating that she has had enough quality time and now it's time for him.

ELLA

There could not be a little girl any happier than Ella with her baby sister. She has become an instant mother as tender and sweet as imaginable.
