Halloween '15

We had a super fun Halloween this year. We went to our friends' neighborhood and went trick-or-treating with them, then dropped by a few friends' and neighbor's houses on the way home, and ended the night by handing out some candy and of course surveying and eating candy. At the end of the night Oli said his favorite part was handing out candy to other kids.

Jo turns 2

Hard to believe my baby is 2! She's spunky, sweet, and smart. She has the softest skin, the most kissable cheeks, and the best comedic timing. We love her so!

For her birthday Shell and family joined us for the weekend and we had a really fun time. We spent the morning at Oli's soccer game, then played at the park, opened presents, went to Punch Pizza, and ended at Izzy's ice cream. The next day we went to Cafe Latte for a cupcake, which is where we took Oli for his second birthday (when I was pregnant with Jo). It's also hard to believe she's almost the age Oli was when I had her!

Chris took Oli and his friend James to the park this afternoon and got some great photos of the two of them. Love these two and love the fall colors!

Autumn in Minnesota means we're spending as much time as possible outside before we hibernate for winter. Also they both learned how to use a "big kid swing"!
