Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Pumpkin Time!




Last night we walked down to the local pumpkin stand and picked out our pumpkins. Macalan was so excited. Every time we walk by the spot where they usually put the pumpkins he would ask when they were coming. When they finally arrived yesterday we couldn't wait to go get some!

Both the boys enjoyed chasing each other around the trailer and Sutton kept saying "apples!" :) I'll to have to post more pictures after they've been carved up. That's always an interesting process. :) Happy Fall!

First Day of Preschool!




Today was a big day at our house! Macalan's first day of preschool! I wasn't able to be there to drop him off, but he is attending the preschool at the same school I teach at so I was able to see him afterwards. He looked so cute walking down the hall in the line with his back pack on. :)

I did notice that he had tears stained on his cheeks. His teacher said when he realized Daddy was gone that's when the tears started. He told me "mom I cried a little bit, but then my teacher said I could pick up the carpet spots." I guess picking up the carpet spots is an awesome job in the land of preschool!

Overall I'd say the day was a success. He was full of stories at dinner tonight and he made sure to tell us that he got to have Teddy Grahams for a snack. We're excited to see how the rest of the year goes for him. Hopefully he'll make lots of great new friends and continue to have lots of fun!
