We love this time of year: the transition between summer and fall. And with it being unusually warm this year, sometimes it almost feels like we're still in August. September was a full month. This is some of what we've been up to:
We switched the big boys bedroom to what used to be our guest room and we bought them some new big boy bunk beds. They are loving their new digs:
I made lots of roasted tomato sauce. It's super yummy and made our home smell spectacular.
We had our first s'mores roast of the year. (that's my veggie garden in the background)
We had our semi-annual trip to the dentist, which prompted the twins to play dentist for the rest of the day. Daddy is such a great patient.
We were blessed by more amazing sunsets
My parents came to visit for a couple of days. It was wonderful! Dad helped me catch up on yard work while mom did several special projects with the twins including teaching them to hand stitch a money pouch.

We watched Robin Hood at least 3 times. We laugh and laugh at it and spend our days quoting it. Whenever the TV is on, Josh request to watch "Prince John."
We wrestled with daddy on slow Saturday mornings. Does his lap still fit three?
The twins started their second year of soccer. They are doing excellent and have greatly improved from last year. It's really fun to watch them play!
In other news, Sam learned how to whistle recently and spends most his waking moments trying to improve on the sound. It drives me crazy. Between that and Seth's sniffing habit, there are moments while they work on their school work where I'm sure I'm loosing my marbles. Sounds have never been my strong point.
We were also suckers are bought the boys an early Christmas present:
Yep, we're that silly family with matching Seahawks jerseys. In our defense they were half price and don't my boys look adorable?!
