Fall

It's been an adventure this past fall.  We have had a blast...it sure has been busy.  

Logan at the Portland Zoo...getting in that season pass the most we can.

Lakeview Farms Pumpkin Patch

Every year this is hands down the best pumpkin patch.  They LOVE the train ride and then that boat ride is a huge highlight.  Not to mention...cousins and friends. 

Logan & Naomi sometimes act like some married couple.  Apparently I don't cuddle with my son enough...he needs to get it from his cousin.

The Joy School group all ready for our Halloween Party.

Time enjoying the crispy leaves at the park!

Another Portland Zoo trip...because alligators are the closest things to dinosaurs there.

And now...Arizona. First off, let me say...NEVER doing that drive willingly again.  22 hours is such a long car trip and my son was even good!  Thank goodness for my mom being willing to sit with me through it.  So grateful to parents helping us get all our junk here.  Glad that parts over.  

Big news recently, Jimmy and I were worried because his work schedule was less than ideal.  Thankfully someone was willing to switch with him at work and it's perfect.  SO nice when things work out!

This was just after eating Thanksgiving dinner.  It was around 80 degrees.  The pool was far too cold for me, but these boys sure braved it.

Tumbleweek Park

The next 2 are our adventures at the Phoenix Children's Museum.  Love it.

Overall Arizona has surprised us in a good way.  The people are so friendly here and expectedly the weather is beautiful right now.  We just got together with a playgroup yesterday and loved it.  Just trying to get our footing being a stay-at-home mom and doing this preschool/joyschool thing on my own.  Not to mention filling the gaps of time we'd normally spend with my family.  We're getting there :)
