Blog Luv

I am a little obsessed with blogs lately.  I read them whenever I have a minute to sit at my computer.  They give such great ideas!!

One of the blogs that I follow, Love Stitched, is giving away an awesome cowl!  You should go check it out!  It's so awfully cold her in MN during the winter, it's always nice to have a warm and SUPER CUTE cowl to keep you warm!  I may just buy one if I don't win it... it's that cute!!

A blog that touched me today.

I read this posting on TaDa! Creations today, and it touched my heart.  I thought I would share it. 


TaDa! Creations - Choosing A Different Path


Philipians 4:8:
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

Love this quote:

I am just a regular girl. 

A wife who loves her husband, but doesn’t always show it.

A mom who adores her babies, but runs out of patience.

A friend who cherishes her girls, but forgets to return calls.

A person so energized by being creative, but not without dry spells.

I am a homemaker who would rather rearrange furniture than dust it, repaint a bathroom than clean it, eat out than sit down and plan meals.

When I read it, I thought,

"she could have been writing about me".

And I bet I'm not the only one...

Beautiful Fall

This weather is amazing.  I love fall.  All the colors, smells, the warm sun.  It makes me want to be outside all day long!  Gotta love upper 70 weather in October, added bonus.  Evalyn is so happy outside, she just becomes more alive and animated.  I love living in MN.  To be able to see all the seasons and see life running it's course.  Reminds you how amazing God is.  Who else could have made such beauty?!?

Here are some photos from the cabin this last weekend.  

 Eating dinner at The Warf.  Decent food, great view!

 Evalyn walking in the leaves.  It was so beautiful. 

 One second too slow... she had been smiling.  Wanted to sit in Mommy's chair ;)

 Breath taking...

This one makes me feel God's presence in the world.  His warmth always around us.  

Cousins - September 2010

I love it when we can get a picture of all of the kids together!

Back Row: Ellie (3), Sophie (6) and Elizabeth (4)

Front Row: Madeline (6), Evalyn (20 months), Connor (14), Cora (9) and Nora (8 months)

Gotta do the silly face!  They are so good at it!

Fall!

Some fun pictures from this fall.

Mommy and Evalyn on the haystack!

We found a tricycle to ride at the pumpkin patch!  Still trying to figure out pedals.  

Yep, Daddy threw straw on my head.  Yucky!
