Introducing our new Mud Room!!

 We finally did it...  a new mud room for our house!  If you have ever been over, you know that our front foyer didn't leave us a lot of room for shoes, backpacks, coats, etc.  We came up with the idea of building a mud room in our garage, while still being able to park the cars inside.  We didn't know if it would be big enough to be worth the expense... well, here it is, and we love it!  So much storage, a place to put the backpacks, coats, shoes, boots, extra pantry space, a closet, and more!

Ready Already?

I couldn't resist getting out a few of my Halloween 
decorations after purchasing these cute bats at Target!

So yes, I'm Ready! 


Terry Fox Walk

 The boys participated in the Terry Fox walk at school this past week.  Both boys walked for Bonnie, our cousin that is battling cancer and chemo!  Way to go my thoughtful boys!

On the Road and Lovin' It!!

We traveled to Owen's first away hockey game this past weekend, 
and we had a blast! Owen is having a great time, and playing really well.  We are very proud of him!
 

Spontaneous Camp Fire!

After returning from Owen's away hockey game on Saturday, the boys asked if we could have a fire.... it was warm, so why not enjoy one of our last summer evenings with friends!

Pretty cute smile from my little guy!
Gotta love the smiley cookie too!
 

Our Little Artist!

 Griffin sat down to do his homework tonight, 
and because of the drawing, he was totally into it! 

Griffin is spending a lot of time drawing lately, and he is getting pretty good!
 
This is his picture of the setting from his Phineas and Ferb book.  
Love it!
