Fall in New England does NOT disappoint! What a lovely kickoff we had with gorgeous colors and a special visit from Gramma and Grampa Schurz for Jeff's 29th (ahem, 40th...shh!) bday!

 |

 |
| the prize winners |
 |
| pretty colors |
 |
| Livi's school had a Walk AT School day (since it's pretty rural, people don't walk TO school.) It was fun to be with her and the rest of the students. |
 |
| Go Morse! |
 |
| 3rd annual trip to Rocky Ridge Orchard. Daddy's first time to come with us! |
 |
| don't ask me where she gets these poses! |

 |
| We busted out the tepee again and she's been playing in it a bit more this go round. |
 |

 |
| Spider Girl! Livi loved her costume and wanted to play in it before Halloween, so we played and practiced her face makeup. |
 |
| my brave girl at the dentist |
 |
| carving jacko-o-lanterns. Livi loves to pick out the ooey gooey stuff. She drew a cat and Daddy carved it for her. |
 |
| Olivia's school had a Halloween dance. It was so fun! Good thing we went, too, because she ended up getting sick on Halloween and couldn't trick or treat. |
 |
| Daddy took the boat bottom apart for repairs and resealing, and we finally got to take it out one last time before winter, to test out the new motor. It was freezing but fun! |
 |
| Cade brought his binoculars. We had an eagle hunt as something fun to do since we couldn't swim. |
 |
| can you see the horses?! |
