My loves

With Thanksgiving quickly approaching, I couldn't help but post these pictures showcasing the most important people in my life- my family! I am so thankful for Ryan, Addie, and Caden....




I also love Bend, Oregon! We are so happy here and very thankful for our family and friends that live near us as well as Ryan's wonderful job. Bend is a beautiful place to live...especially in the fall. Check out these beautiful fall colors.





I love the fall season and everything that comes along with it...everything pumpkin flavorded, apple cider, Halloween, yummy baked goods, and the cold mountain air.

Halloween Highlights

Addie was lucky enough to wear 3 different costumes this year! The local grocery store down the street hosted a Halloween Carnival with pony rides and pumpkin painting. Addie went as a....cowgirl! This outfit isn't anything special for her because she often wears cowgirl attire.



Caden was a cute little giraffe...



The next outfit was a princess ballerina. Addie started a ballet class a few months back and the girls were asked to wear their costumes on Halloween. It was also observation day and it was adorable to watch these sweet little girls dancing and singing!



Then came the trick-or-treating costume...Addie was back in the big blue bunny suit. We went to the Old Mill District for the Halloween parade and hay rides. Then we hit up a few houses in our neighborhood. The best part of the night was handing out candy at our house. The doorbell rang every few minutes for 2 hours straight! Addie would run to the door and pass out candy. She loved it!



My parents were so excited to be up here visiting us during all the Halloween fun!
