Halloween Preview


Recently, we decided to see if Megan's Halloween costume from last year still fit.



As some who have been following our blog for the last while may remember, Megan was Pooh for Halloween last year. She is definitely interested in being Pooh again this year. We just need to find a sleeper the same yellow as the costume for her to wear underneath.




This was Megan's first Halloween costume. Since it was a very unisex outfit, we thought Ethan could use it this year. This way, we can take Pooh and Eeyore out trick or treating.

Hanging Out with Grandma Mantel

Recently, Jason's parents came out for a visit. On one particularly warm, sunny afternoon, we decided to play in the yard on the swingset.

Learning to Crawl

Now that Ethan's almost 7 1/2 months old, he's starting to figure out how to crawl. He's mastered rolling over and is currently doing the "army crawl" on his tummy. Here's a video of his crawling.

On the Farm

As many people know, my family has a farm in Saskatchewan in the Swift Current area. We went out there for the long weekend/ harvest. The kids really enjoy the time out there. I recently found out that this farm has been in my family for almost 90 years. I hope that it will continue to stay in my family for many more years.

Here are some pictures from our weekend at the farm and the trip home.
