My sweet husband has been working all break long to build a credenza for a friend of ours. Let me say that again...2 credenzas for our friends. I had to brag and share what he was doing! We just might have to limit our works of arts to summer time though...he will need a break from this break :P The frame for both Here are the doors on the bottom sections Hard at work...Isn't he handsome! The drawers on top.  All thats left, top, shelves and holes for the handles. Thankfully he doesn't have to paint it and we can deliver it tonight.  He is putting on the finishing touches as i type.  Kimmel is an amazing builder and he has fun with it. He has ad the opportunity to make beds for us, washer & dryer stand for two people, then beds for a friend for his two boys they just adopted. He loves it! Can't wait to see what he builds next...maybe our house! :) 

I love fall and all the comes with it. Leaves changing, fires in places or pits. Sweaters, sweat shirts and layers. It is such a nice change from the heat! Its like a long lost friend that has come for a visit! Our thanksgiving was nice, dinner with Kimmel's immediate family and extended later. We haven't seen most of the cousins in a while and its always good to see his grandma and aunts and uncles. The food was delicious, the company grand....and we were thankful! Today was perfect fall weather so when Shepherd went out for a walk with Opa i had to take some pictures! The colors are awesome and the wind majestic! Don't judge me for his outfit you can't always plan a perfect outfitted picture lol We have so much to be thankful for! 

Asked our friends Maddie and Kyle to come to the park with us and take pictures. We took pictures of them and they took pictures of us it was fun! Being the photographer in the family there are not loads of me -which is fine- but we need family pictures too! I will say it is a bit weird editing myself..i see all the icky things lol :) its funny how you don't see that in others as you edit them. I love pictures like this..the kids walking holding hands of parents! Really glad we could capture this! :)  Had to get a picture of him grabbing my mouth he does that all the time.  Now i have a picture for the family for christmas...:) 

I am mixing together some Halloween pictures and his 9 months celebration :) i am a day late on his month and a couple for halloween but i don't think anyone minds! 9 Things to know about Shepherd... 1. He is teething like a champ! Keeping me on my toes and awake thru out the night! Come on teeth come thru already! 2. Shepherd is a face toucher...who ever is holding him he goes straight for the mouth. When i am carrying him anywhere he puts his hand in my mouth 3.  Dances. He has this leg shaking bouncy thing going on that he dances when he wakes up while screaming :) 4. Makes his own sunshine most days and loves crawling back and forth from toys, figuring each one out.  5. Laughter keeps getting better...can stop tickling him or playing til he laughs cause we love it!  6. Totally things my mom lives in the iPhone and talks to her on face-time. Its funny to watch him squeal at her picture.  7. Thinks Cousin Eleanor is funny and patiently waits whil
