September Randoms

We have been enjoying an unusually beautiful fall and I can't get enough of it. September meant a lot of walking to school, riding bikes, playing outside, and just loving the gorgeous weather (and it has continued into November!!)

Here are a few of our various activities in September. Apparently, I mostly just took pictures of Lizzie that month :)

Jace still had not learned to ride his bike without training wheels, so we finally took the pedals off and made him ride it like a balance bike for a while, and guess what, he quickly learned to ride his bike when we put the pedals back on!

I was somehow signed up to volunteer in Jace's class twice per month and this started in September. Lizzie and I have had a good time going and helping the kindergartners read (especially when Lizzie behaves)

Mishell wanted to start dressing like fall, despite it being hot outside... I don't blame her because she has some cute Fall clothes! I mean, those boots..

I just took a picture of this because I was laughing at Devin's contributions to our grocery list. Treats, candy, ice cream, soda, and crackers. I'll give him the crackers, but the rest..man, he's so healthy.

We had a tornado touch down in nearby Washington Terrace one day. It was so freaky!! It came from nowhere and there were trees everywhere, trampolines swirling in the air, etc. It happened right when the kids were supposed to be walking home from school. I jumped in the car to go get them, but luckily a nice neighbor had picked them up already.

but the rainbow was beautiful after!

Not the best picture, but the girls and I went to the Women's Broadcast for General Conference together and then out for ice cream. We had a great time.

I looked out the window one day when the kids were coming home and saw this. Jace is such a good boy. (Most of the time!)

Michelangelo doing the dishes is the best. Love that kid.
