between school, activities & lots of fun with friends, a long weekend is needed for me to recover from how busy october has been ;) jon's been out of town 7 of the last 8 nights, and the clock is counting down to my relief come this evening! we cancelled our night out for a night in & early bedtime for me! T G I F & prepping for more festive fun come this weekend & all next week- november is somehow just one week from today!

counting my thousands of blessings in the midst of the crazy!

C O U S I N S fall 2019

cousins and candy and costumes, oh my! 

the kids have had the very best few days with their built-in besties. they played so hard- laughed, cried, ran and went wild. these are some of their most treasured childhood memories.

& another fun fall week in the books- a tinitainer performance, the most beautiful kansas city weather, and my favorite, joy-filled smiles. the big girls have a short school week with conferences, and i'm so looking forward to making the biggest leaf pile we're capable of, carving our family pumpkin, baking spooky homemade goodies together and continuing to binge-watch our favorite festive movies!
