As usual Shane and I were the first to wake up.

We are taking a little road trip to Lackawaxen, Pennsylvania for our 11th wedding anniversary.

We are staying at the Woodloch Family Lodge for the next three days.

Our living room

Shane has to take his meds before heading out. 🙁

Fall is officially here!

Bear mountain bridge

Scenic route, breathtaking views…

So we parked our car and decided to walk on the bridge.

Looking down from the bridge.

Happy kids.

We’re having a potluck dinner at my friend’s so I’m making Baked Ziti with Ricotta and Ham.

Ready to go!

Stuffed chicken made by the host. Yum!

Thank you Lin Family for an absolutely wonderful evening! t was so great too that our children all got along so well and really enjoyed each other’s company. 🙂

Japchae is one of the kids favorite Korean dishes and it’s so easy to make. Recipe found here.

We are carving and painting pumpkins this morning.

I got her a new chandelier for Chloe’s room last week and sewed curtains to match the lavender wall.

Chloe started taking piano lessons.
