Every time we walk this trail we stop, put the kids up in the tree, and snap lots of photos.
Decked out in his Beaver gear.
Eliana thought it was quite fun to sit up there with brother and sister.
Three tree monkeys!

Our photo tree
Holding our new friend the salamander
Catching our breaths on the bench.
Papa spotted a salamander on the trail.
Colin took a turn holding it.
Janessa was not to be out done.
Adventure time
We took some much needed family time and went for a hike at the Finley wildlife refuge.
I just bought myself this double jogging stroller and already can't believe
I survived so long without one. We can go so many more places with ease.
Eliana relaxing at the oak lookout.
Checking out the view.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Colin, Eliana, & Janessa
Ready to eat some turkey. Where is the rest of the family?
No need to wait, we can eat the ham instead!
Despite many new changes in our lives we have so much to be thankful for!
These three monkeys top the list. Along with the rest of our family.
Here we are!
Sissy love
Eliana modeling her new jumper.
Janessa loving her sissy.
Looking at the ceiling. Monkey see, monkey do!
Walking along furniture still. One of these days she'll just take off.
Eliana as a Unicorn for Halloween
Getting a good picture of Elie in her costume was
almost as difficult as spotting a unicorn in real life.
Downtown trick-or-treating
All decked out and ready to get some candy.
The weather was amazingly warm and dry.
We lasted for about 2 hours and scored lots of loot.
Janessa as Ariel for Halloween
Big surprise (not).... Janessa chose to be Ariel.
Sitting as a pretty pretty princess!
Colin as Jango Fett for Halloween
Colin chose to this costume based on the cool laser gun.
I highly doubt he really knows who this character is!
This is a stick-up. Give me your candy!
Eliana's first pumpkin
I cleaned all the mud off of her pumpkin and laid it out on the living room carpet for inspection.
She crawled across the floor at mock speed making "oooooo" noises the whole way.
Arms flapping means extreme excitment.
You mean this if for me?!?
Everyone's final versions.
(Left to right: Eliana, Mom & Dad, Janessa, & Colin)
Kindergarten goes to the pumpkin patch
Enjoying donuts and cider
King of the mountain
The whole class, pumpkins and all.
more Cowboy party
The whole gang in Jail :)
And the boot pinata breaks
A rainbow chip cake for the hungry wranglers.
Ready for a Cowboy Party?!?
There is a new sheriff in town
The birthday boy!
Papa and Colin waiting for our friends to arrive.
Janessa playing horse shoes.
Wanted!!
Colin turns 6 !!!!!!
We have a new tradition in the family. On the kid's birthday they get to pick whatever they want for breakfast, we sing happy birthday, and they get to open their presents.
Kind of like Christmas morning:)
Colin chose cinnamon rolls.
I got them from Taylor Street Ovens. They are literally
the size of a dessert plate so we split them into quarters.
