Aren’t they the cutest duo?!

Chloe insisted on wearing converse with this dress, so I got the matching ones for Andrew too. ;P

I also made them matching boutonnière and corsage.

You look so lovely!

Off they go! Have a wonderful time!!

Chloe’s been playing soccer since 1st grade and today, she scored her first goal!!! I jumped out of my seat and screamed! Go Chloe!

One of Chloe’s best friends is moving to Europe so we are getting together at her friend’s house for a goodbye party…

Chloe’s made a beautiful card for her.

I’ll miss seeing all of them together! We’ll miss you guys! Wishing all the best to the beautiful family~

Shane found a pumpkin pillow.

Nice pumpkins…

Crazy pumpkins!

Kids play all sorts of sports in our town’s park, and today they set up a benefit community block party with local vendors and lots of activities for all.

Shane playing frisbee with his friend… and a police officer(?)

My all time favorite fall activity is going to a farm and picking fruits with my family. 😉

It’s a bit of a drive but we love coming to this farm so we can also pick grapes.

Shane nailed a “camera” smile.

I’m hosting a Girl’s Discipleship group at our house this afternoon. Chloe has been a part of this discipleship group, organized by a group of moms who have the similar age girls at our church. As a mother, my greatest desire is for my children to be so passionately in love with Jesus Christ and so firmly planted in the gospel that their faith will remain unshakable once they become adults and leave home. One thing I strongly believe is having christian friendships that can help through their spiritual walks, encourage each other and keep each other accountable through their journey of faith.

Today is my turn to do the lesson and the topic I chose is, “jealousy”. 

I put together a little powerpoint presentation to help me keep track of my thoughts.

Some sweets to keep them awake during the lesson. 🙂

My beautiful group of girls!

Then some play time afterwards!

To celebrate Shane’s birthday, we took him and his best friend to Dave & Buster’s  to play.

Lots of candies, lemonade, ribs, burgers and fries…it’s all good because it’s his birthday!

Happy 9th birthday my handsome son! You are an awesome kid and we are so proud of you!! 

My mom made a birthday breakfast for the family! Thank you Halmuni! :O)

I love you so much! You’ll always be my baby no matter how old you are!
