My friend Lucy

Lucy is 4 months younger than Cate. It is really fun for us because they are starting to be able to play together a bit. Lucy's mom and dad are really fun to hang out with...we had a fun night of pizza and hanging out with our baby girls.

Happy Halloween!

The prettiest flower you ever did see
A smile you will always see on me
Halloween and falls days are so much fun
Too very soon I will be one!
And...I am getting closer and closer to walking!

What happens when Mommy is gone...

I have been traveling lots in the last month so Cate has gotten some great Daddy time.
This is what happens when Baby Cate eats oreos for supper...

Runner-up medalist--35 on 9 holes!

Carter shot a 35 tonight in Ankeny's dual meet vs. Dowling.

He had 3 birdies which he was very excited about.

Here are a couple pictures from him playing yesterday and a picture of his biggest fan.

Standing and starting golf

Carter has started his golf season. Stay tuned for updates of his success. He had a really good caddy (his Dad!) in a tournament at Briarwood over the weekend where he placed 3rd in his flight.

Cate is crawling faster and faster (not as much on her belly now) and even standing. We actually had to get out the long sleeves over the weekend. Is summer really over?

We enjoyed the Becker siblings getting together while Jacqui and Eric were back in Iowa.

Here Cate is pictured with Spencer (4 1/2 months) and Josiah (2 years)

I LOVE ANIMALS AT THE FAIR!

Cate enjoyed a day at the county fair and the state fair this month.

She really thought she could communicate with the animals.

Congrats on 50 years!

Congrats to Dr. and Mrs. Trewet!!!

We so enjoyed ourselves this weekend as we celebrated 50 years of marriage between Carrol and Betty Trewet! 50 years and it is so very clear to all of us how very much they love each other. It was quite the special night--just like their marriage. The ENTIRE family was there (even Bernie and Kristi!) and some of Betty and Carrol's wedding party. As you can see from the pictures...fun was had by all!
