2024, September 30-October 6

Hello, October! We've entered the last quarter of the year. We keep on keepin' on!

Fall means going out to see the leaves, and that's just what Hallie and Eliza did. Eliza took pics while Hallie drove. 





They saw some cows too. Actually quite a few cows. Hallie said she had to stop and shy hi to all of them.


October also brought a new Dutch Bros sticker. 

It brought kids wearing their Halloween gear to school too. Mike found this Hello Kitty Frankenstein's monster particularly fun. 

Eliza drew a charcoal pumpkin at BUH. 


Landon can turn into a funny fellow around bedtime. He turns on all the charm just as Mom and Dad are trying to settle down for bed. We love him for it even if it delays our bedtime on occasion. 


Hallie and a couple of coworkers from Starbucks went to Rockwell for its special October flavors. She even brought Mike home some. Hallie enjoys having coworkers 25 years younger than her. Laughs abound when work is to be done.

Check out this fancy dish! 

The kids love their pets, and every so often we get a picture of them from the kids' perspective. This was from Landon.

Hallie made an interesting concoction while at work: Dr. Pepper, vanilla syrup, and vanilla sweet cream cold foam.

Mike's long-time friend made the assertion that cats are unworthy of being pets. Mike objected. We love our anxious puppy, clearly. 

But we also love our mouse murderer. 

Landon went on a date Saturday, and said date in part involved using his swords to play Fruit Ninja with some pumpkins on the front lawn. On Sunday morning, he, Eliza, and Dad played with the leftover chunks.


At work, Hallie asked Mike to come to the rescue to put up some new hooks in the closet where the employees hang their aprons and jackets.
