falling into fall

Here are some fun things we did this week!

Here's Mason's friend Cav Man. I feel like we see him so often they know each other now. Here's another soccer game we went to (mens this time), and yes we won again! Wahoowa!

Mason helped me bake caramel snickerdoodles for his bake sale

Jeni came up with the brilliant idea of having a bake sale to raise money for their Halloween Costumes

What do you do when your heater stops functioning correctly on a cold day? Call the landlord, make hot apple cider and listen to Christmas Music of course. It cheered us right up.

Shakespeare's earliest editions came to UVA so OF COURSE we had to check it out. 

Stanley was sleeping in the car, so Nate checked it out first with Mason, then Mason gave me the tour the second time. He did an amazing job by the way.

Yesterday we drove to DC to attend the Temple and had to stop at Oklahoma Joe's of course. We tried to get there in Kansas City, but the line was about a gazillion people long, so I was so happy when we got here and there was no line at all. Plus it was new.

Halloween on the Hill was madness. I've never seen so many people fit in that small of a space. That might be a slight exaggeration, but it was busy. I must say how much fun it is to see so many children.

Go Wolf Pups!

our last day of soccer, and Stanley and Mason both got medals. We loved both of their coaches 

Being their goalie is no easy job I tell you 

The ward 'Trunk or Treat'
