Taylor's photo shoot

I was just taking pictures for fun and thought these turned out cute enough to share.

Buena Vista Apple Fest

We heard about a small town in the south east mountains having a apple festival and we just had to go see what it was like. We got to pick apples from the tree. They were a little too tart for all of us except Kennedy. She loved eating them and ate about 3 during the time we were there (the exact number is unknown because she kept dropping half eaten apples in the dirt.) We had yummy homemade apple pie, fresh warm applesauce, and Taylor got to go on a buggy ride pulled by a miniature horse. All the different apple dishes really helped get me in the fall spirit.

Kennedy found this basket and thought it was the coolest thing ever

Taylor goes to preschool

Taylor started preschool this last week and absolutely loves it! She goes every Tuesday and Thursday morning to Mrs. Kim who she adores, and tells me on days that she doesn't have school how she wishes today was a school day. When I pick her up she can't tell me fast enough everything they did that day. As much as I have been looking forward to a break while she is at school, it has been surprisingly hard having her away. Its not so much the fact that she is away, it has more to do with the fact that this is the start of her being at school now until she is 18! Crazy.

Mountain Get-A-Way

For the Labor Day weekend we headed up to Beaver Creek, CO with some of our good friends. It was so fun to get away and enjoy the mountains and say goodbye to summer. Some of the highlights were dancing to the music of Oktoberfest, pony rides at the stable, and riding the chair lift to the top of the mountain.
