Building

On Sunday morning before church Isaac and Isabella got out Isaac's tools and went to work in the basement building. According to Isaac they were building a bridge. Yes, they are in their p.j.'s!
Look at that!
Look at the swing!

Funny Face



Isabella especially loves these funny glasses that Isaac got at his preschool Halloween Party. She is continually wearing them around the house acting silly!

First Snow Fall

The excitement of Isabella and Isaac this morning was unbelievable at the first sight of the first snow of the season. They both had to run around and make tracks before we got in the car to leave this morning.

Shoveling Snow
Delight over the first snow of the season!
I love the snow!
See all of our tracks we are making?

Harvest Time

Isaac and Isabella went to the farm last week to help finish up soybean harvest. Isabella took her first tractor and combine ride. She climbed up the ladder to the combine like a pro and only looked back to wave. Isaac of course LOVED the farm as usual and couldn't get enough time there.

Trick or Treating



Isaac and Isabella enjoyed going Trick or Treating Saturday night. They were very excited to go Trick or Treating in the dark with their flashlights and glow sticks! It was MUCH warmer than Friday night going downtown. As you can see we didn't have to wear the gloves and winter jackets.

Happy Halloween

Isaac and Isabella picked very suitable costumes this year for Halloween. Isaac was a farmer. Which makes sense since this is ALL he talks about and plays with these days. Isabella picked to be a giraffe. (Thankfully once we went to the fabric store she forgot all about being a dinosaur!) This is also very fitting since her bed LOOKS like a zoo. She is really into the animals on the Savannah. (Remember her birthday a couple of weeks ago with the giraffe and zebra cake.) I am particularly proud of Isabella's costume since I made it for her. It was fun putting all the details into the dress and headband.

We took them Trick or Treating downtown Wamego Friday night. Even though it was much colder than last year they really did enjoy it a lot more this year. Hopefully tomorrow night we will also go out and go to a few houses, too. They really just want to ring the doorbell and say Trick or Treat!

Soccer Game

I took Isaac and Isabella to Topeka on Saturday. Cousins Sarah and Rebekka were playing in the Governor's Cup Soccer Tournament. They watched a little of the game. They mostly enjoyed spending time with their Sarah, Rebekka, and Aunt Karla. They especially liked half time. This was when they could go out on the field and run around! Of course we took a short detour to the mall to go to Old Navy before lunch. Isaac and Isabella got to do their favorite thing at the mall, ride the escalators!
