We had a fun Thanksgiving in Pullman this year. Grammy & Papa spent the majority of Turkey Days in Texas alone, but now that they’re living in Washington again, we all got to be together. Here are all six of the cousins together for the first time:

Heading out on our first long car ride as a family of six. All went well!

On Friday we all went bowling

We had a ton of rain at the end of October/beginning of November and the Snoqualmie river was raging. We took the kids to see the falls (only a couple miles from our home). The hike down was considerably easier than in years past with a young Silas. The boys were sprinting ahead of us checking out all the cool plants and trees. And Layla was happy as can be on Jonathan’s back.

Last weekend was busy and full of Halloween related festivities. On Saturday morning we took the boys kids (still catching myself) trick-or-treating downtown at the local businesses. This year we have Indiana Jones, an astronaut, a pink bunny & a park ranger.

“You lookin’ at me?”

It’s fun when the kids are so little YOU get to decide what they will be! After years of ninjas, knights, dragons, firefighters, etc, I decided I wanted something cute… something fluffy… something… PINK! When Layla’s costume arrived in the mail I promptly put it on her and sighed at her cuteness! Then I marched her up to Jonathan’s office to model!

She looks so happy in it!

Back to last weekend… after a morning of trick-or-treating and lunch at Zeek’s pizza, we went to Fox Hollow Farm in Issaquah to check out the fall festival there. Here are the boys on the highlight of the outing, the ATV’s.

Yay! A corn pit!
