School Tackle Party

 Dallin's first grade class had a "tackle" party to celebrate all the hard work they did "tackling" hard words.  Dallin sang songs for us, read us some books, and taught us some of his reading strategies.  He was very happy we came to see him at school!

 Dad just happened to be in town the day of the party, so he surprised Dallin by coming to the party too!

Hocking Hills State Park

 We went camping with our dear friends here in Ohio mid-October.  Hocking Hills State Park is known for its amazing hiking and camping, and it's only two hours northeast of our house.  Mid-October often means rainy, cold weather, but we had beautiful fall weather all weekend.


 The crew!
 If you look closely, you can see Ashleigh's blue sweatshirt!

 The kids did great with all the hiking.  There were lots of dangerous spots though that made for some tense moments.

 Trenton almost blends in with the rock.  He climbed all the way up here for a picture!






 Ashleigh posing next to a small waterfall.  It was incredibly beautiful in this park.  The trees and rocks were enormous!

Owen found a friend!

Homecoming

Trenton went to the Mason Homecoming with a group of friends.  Trenton has quite a unique sense of style.  He treasures vintage coats and jackets he finds thrift shopping.
