"The Doctors"

We'll be sure to hang this by Natalie's diploma when she becomes the heart doctor she aims to be.

Pumpkin Carving

Unseasonably warm day allowed for outdoor carving... Fun!

Natalie requested a heart for her pumpkin carving. Thanks goes to big brother Ryan for figuring this out! She was so impressed with Daddy's work and enjoyed it all season long. 

Starved Rock

We were blessed with the most gorgeous fall weather for a family day at Starved Rock. It was a day for hiking, picnicking, and celebrating God's splendor.

Monkeying Around

Ryan, Danny, and Cyrus in their "climbing tree." It's quintessential to have a designated climbing tree in childhood after all, right?

Exploring ideas

Over fall break the kids enjoyed building and creating at the Build It! Make It! Exhibit at Discovery Museum. 

Tanners Orchard

Chilly winds and rain cut this visit too short but still managed to squeeze in some memories at a favorite place.
