Weekend togetherness

I love the weekends. We get to spend most of our time together and since we have a lot of fun this is a good thing. Saturday was spent cleaning, raking leaves, doing home repairs, letting the kids play and bottling applesauce. Brian went to the UW vs. BYU game with a co-worker who had an extra ticket. I was glad he was able to go since he loves it and it's the only game he goes to! On Sunday the weather was gorgeous so after church the kids and I played outside in the leaves and went on a walk while Brian was out doing church stuff until dinner time.



Sophie thinks it's great fun to ride Miles' little bike.
I was telling Wesley to not throw leaves at me... which of course meant he would.

When Brian got home he played 4 rounds of chutes and ladders with Miles, while playing with Scooter and letting Wesley climbing all over him - Superdad.
 Nora and I made mini hand-pies. They were tasty.
And Sophie finished Harry Potter 7!! I was so excited for her, but a little sad because now it's all over for her, I was kind of sad when I finished (but then again I'm now reading them through for the 3rd time so I guess it's okay!)  Now she and I get to watch the last 2 movies together.  I'm thinking of making some butterbeer and pumpkin pasties to go along with it.
Love this happy face. What a great weekend!

I love the leaves... just not raking them! You kids used to spend hours playing in the leaves with Michelle and Lindsey Balls. Making houses with rooms. Brings back lots of sweet memories! Love all the pictures!

How fun to catch up. I had to look up what butterbeer was. How do you make it?

You all look so good.
Love and miss you,
