october in pictures

October has always been the start of our busy season. Almost every weekend is busy and our week nights are full too. It doesn't seem to slow down until after the new year in January, but we wouldn't have it any other way. This month I took a lot of pictures, so enjoy these snippets of October!

We celebrated Atley's 1st birthday in Salem

 

We made it to16 weeks

(Don't tell anyone but we found out the gender!!) 

We went to the first game of the NLDS and watched the Cardinals bring home their last win of the season.

 

I had been looking for my Grandma's fudge recipe for quite awhile and finally found it...read the last line on the recipe. It makes me laugh and miss my Grandpa even more.

Our high school students went to Homecoming and we got to stop by and see them before they danced the night away.

We finally made it to Ikea for a day date and Alex was a happy shopper.

Jansen stopped by to see us on her birthday! Happy 2nd birthday sweet girl!

 

Becky, Dad and I went to the Greater St. Louis Dental Society fall CE's together.

 

We ended the month by taking our High School students to Black, MO for a fall retreat- more details to come soon.

 

We had a great October and can't wait to see what November has in store for us! Alex is quite excited for Thanksgiving and I'm ready to the holiday season to begin.
