 apple pie!

Happy Birthday, Dave!

We celebrated Dave's birthday last week! The birthday boy enjoyed his favorite food, favorite dessert and favorite family!

Bobbing for Apples

This girl

 came up with the idea

 to bob for apples 

 all on her own!

 And I let her, all the while

 trying to tell her that you needed to add more water to make it challenging, 

and wiping up water. 

Block Party

Last night was our annual Block Party. The weather was surprisingly beautiful. Fun was had by all. The neighborhood kids played and played some more while the adults talked and ate. Kiera was beside herself...desserts galore, fun games, riding her bike in the street! We love our street!

 We love nachos and cheese...especially when served in the container!

 Kate won!

 Favorite game of the night... cheese ball toss onto a shower caps covered in shaving cream,

Thank you Pinterest!

 The biggest kid on Canterbury Road!

 Roasting marshmallows is a great end to a great night!

We spent Labor Day poolside!

Happy Labor Day! We did some work organizing and cleaning up Dave's work room in the basement then headed to the pool! Kiera was so happy to have Dave at the pool with us since it's usually just the two of us. Kiera went on the slide, Kiera and Dave went on the diving boards and the three of us went in the pool. 

Kiera has her Daddy's feet, that's for sure!

 Dave watched a garden video on how to string up 

your tomatoes to grow eight feet tall...and it worked!

 Love this girl!
