Mathias read his first book today by sounding out the words! We are so proud of him. He was very excited and had to read to Daddy after dinner tonight. Speaking of dinner..... we had spaghetti and meatballs. I wanted to post a picture of Lathen after his meal. I think Keegan might be putting the pics up on his blog (since he took the pictures). Much fun had by all! You can only imagine the mess!
I've been sewing alot lately and enjoying it very much. In the next few months I'll be showing some of my projects. Stay tuned!

Happy Fall!
Despite the high 80 degree temperature today, I am looking forward to my favorite season. Adding a few Fall decorations around the house makes it feel so cozy. Hopefully the weather will soon catch up to my decor! Happy Fall to all!

Zebras and ostrich and elk, oh my!
Visiting Grandma and Grandpa is always a highlight for the family. Here is the recipe for a good time:
-1 wild animal ranch (ostrich being our favorite!)
-1 amazing cave tour (Lathen threw his pacifier into the 5,000 year old bat guano. Not a pretty sight.)
-ice cream bars (because your grandparents are so nice and love ice cream, too.)
-panning for gems (a little work pays off!)
-homemade banana pudding ice cream (because Grandma can make anything and it tastes yummy!)
-tractor ride on the wagon with Grandpa (because it wouldn't be a complete visit without one.)
-1 hot tub dip (always fun, except when you bonk heads with your siblings.)
-1 playtime in the sandbox (Grandma and Grandpa have one built into their deck.)
Add a dash of working a puzzle with Grandma or visiting some of the houses and projects Grandpa is working on and it's a full weekend with great memories. I hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend.
