Autumn Days

We've had quite the eventful October. A few volleyball games, a house inspection, some playdates & a lot of days at home playing with the little man... who is almost one!! Since most people "read" blogs for pictures, I'll start this one out right. :)

Trying to take pumpkin pics, but Rowan kept staring at the cars driving by :)

Rowan after his first haircut! (by mom...)

What most of my days consist of... 3 meals, 3 bottles, and a lot of clean-up! But he's so stinkin cute....

Our first trip to the library.. .who needs books?

Attacking the camera... every time.

The highlight of our month was our getaway trip to Colorado. I had the ADA conference to go to (in order to keep my RD license with CEUs) in Denver for a few days. So back in March, I started searching for plane tickets to save some bucks and we came upon a deal that was too good to pass up. And since Kyle had never been to Colorado, we got 2 tix for $107 each. Roundtrip. That was unheard of. So, we ventured out there, just the two of us. Grandma Pattison watched Rowan (thank you!!!!) for the entire week and was definitely worn out by the time we returned home. :) Here are a few pics from our vacation....

I started my trip off right... a bag of caramel corn & iced mocha... yes, I was headed to a dietetics conference. I don't care!

We spent a morning in Colorado Springs, Garden of the Gods.

The payoff at the top of "The Incline" in Manitou Springs. Definitely worth the climb :)

Downtown Estes Park. Beautiful area & fun shops! (I didn't purchase anything....)

Sunset in Boulder. How can you live in Colorado and not believe in God? I was continously reminded of God's love the entire week. What a beautiful creation.

And for the record, this took me 40 minutes to post. I better get more efficient or there will only be one post per month... I don't have 40 extra minutes a day!
