twin cities marathon 2014

We had the privilege of cheering on Brad and Michelle (Chantel's younger sister) in this year's TC marathon.  Mom and Steve joined us and we made a morning out of it.  James (and the girls) saw a glimpse of what their obnoxious mother will be like at their future sporting events.  I love a good competition.

the apple orchard.

Monday was the first cool, crisp fall day and we headed to an apple orchard/working farm with so many wonderful friends in our church family.  Reagan and James were in heaven with the animals and big kids.  Elle hung out in the ergo but eventually warmed up to the big crowd and had a grand time!  So thankful for the amazing families my littles are growing up with.

This picture makes me laugh.  Reagan and her dear friend, Abi, couldn't believe how funny this was!  Reagan adores Abi and follows her around everywhere she goes. Couldn't think of a better little girl for her to emulate!
