Fall adventures

It has been such a great fall and there have been so many exciting things going on in our lives.

Jasper and Gideon participated in their school "walk-a-thon". I was so proud of both of them. They walked their little hearts out!



We carved pumpkins! We actually carved them twice because we carved them too early the first time and they were piles of rotten mush two weeks before Halloween. 


















We bike to church every Sunday here in Berkeley. It is so fun! The boys are such safe, responsible, street-wise bikers for being only 5 and 7. The round trip is about 6 miles and they are troopers.







Then there was Halloween! Jasper wanted to be a tarantula. Gideon a vampire bat, and Sage was a black cat. Their costumes turned out great. It's been a tricky time of year for Rob with submitting faculty applications, so we kept the festivities pretty low key this year. Jasper and Gideon's school had a parade, Jasper's class had a little party, we made sugar cookies and frosted them. It was a nice Halloween. 






Last weekend we invited this terrific family over for dinner! We love our friends the Blythes! 



This little daughter of mine is just growing up too fast. It kills me. She's talking so much, constantly, all day! She says "sank you mom" for every little thing I do for her. Sage is a sweetheart and I feel so grateful to be her mom.

I love that you all bike to church every Sunday. What a fabulous example of a healthy lifestyle for your children! Also the pictures of Sage against the green (wallpaper?), wow they could melt you.
