Hello, October!

So, October is here and what a difference a year makes!!!  We snapped this picture of the kids right after we got Emma's referral a year ago. It seems like it was ages ago and just yesterday all at the same time!

Now my heart might explode!  The Lord has been so gracious to our family and truly held us throughout the adoption process and He has continued to do so as we have been home navigating this crazy life of parenting 3 tiny humans. Do we have everything figured out? Absolutely not. Will we continue to strive to live out the calling the Lord has given us?  Absolutely. We are humbled and honored to get to share life with these three!

And a few random happenings........

We had some amazing fall weather this weekend. Mom and Dad got the big kids on Saturday and took them to the car show at the Renaissance. They had a fabulous day. Walker liked getting to see the fancy, classic cars. EK was more excited about getting to go Barnes and Noble.

Fun times for sure!

They did a little window shopping.

These two would stay in the bookstore all day. Walker sang a few songs on the stage and picked out some goodies. EK found a stack of books to read. She loves to read so much!

This guy. I don't even know what to say. As we were getting the kids ready for church on Sunday, I looked over and he was standing in the doorway like this. He is such a mess. 

Monograms, sweaters and bows....a few of my favorite things!

Walker was fired up for the fire truck to visit the preschool today. The firefighters did a presentation and video and then all the kids got to climb through the truck. No matter how many times he has seen a truck, he still gets giddy when he has the chance to be around them. 

Our October calendar is full of fun fall festivities. It's going to be an exciting month!
