Our baby girl turned 4 this past week. Her daddy turned 39 a couple days later! I always look forward to this week in October. Birthday cake, presents, happy faces, surprise visits, friends. You name it, it is just a great week. Coupled together with it being Fall, and I don't think we can ask for anything better!

Annalee asked for a costume/Vikings/Pokemon birthday party, so last weekend, we indulged her many dreams and had a handful of family and friends over to celebrate. The new house is a great spot to gather, as there is so much more space than we previously had. It was a beautiful day for a party, so the kids spent a bunch of time outdoors, playing. Annalee now has to think about getting her thank you letters in the mail!

We headed to the doctor to see Dr. Berry for the last time, as he is retiring in December. Annalee is 3' 4.12" tall and keeping on with the 60th percentile in height. Her eyes are top notch and her hearing passed with flying colors. She is so smart that the Dr. asked if she might get to early enroll in Kindergarten next year. We will have to think on that one. I am not sure what the rules are in Bloomington or if we would even consider having her be the youngest in her class. We shall see.

| Birthday morning, pancakes by daddy |
Ryan's birthday was a great day, full of ripping out a closet in the entry-way from the garage. Now comes the decisions about what we are going to do on that floor. A mudroom is the idea, but we are not sure if the bathroom will remain a 3/4 or become a powder room. It would be nice to keep a shower in, but the plumbing is such that we may have some issues. We have plenty of time to figure all of that out, I guess! After demolition, our friends Jessica and Matt took the kids for the night and we headed out to Betty Danger's Supper Club, complete with a ferris wheel ride. It was a great night and we were home early because we are getting older and just wanted to sleep!
A trip to an apple orchard with Rob and Jamie rounded out the weekend in a nice way. It was chilly, but beautiful day outside and the kids got out some energy. Fall is seriously such a fun time of year! And having friends in Red Wing is sure a nice perk! Thanks for moving away from us, guys!

An accident waiting to happen or these jokers just having fun?
Depends on my mood. |
