happy halloween!

katy brought this fun halloween hat for lucy!
lovey is here for the week!! yeah!!!
and here is a picture of scott and lucy in a pile of hofmann-hand-me-down blocks.
fun fall day!

can you say, "lovin' it!!!!!!!"?

scott went to the 3rd game of the world series last night! (thanks kelby!) as you can see, he had a GREAT time!!! lucy and i cheered from home! go red sox!

hot and cold

it was 75 degrees on saturday - we walked the boulder creek trail and spent some time on pearl street because we knew that sunday there would be SNOW!! our first snow of the year - the cold weather is here. it has been a beautiful summer and early fall...i love living here!
p.s. yes, we are rooting for the sox, but we love living in a world series city and are excited about the rockies too.

in case you were wondering...

where lucy got her blue eyes, here is your answer!
(don't you think she looks like a cabbage patch kid in these pictures? :)
it was 39 degrees on the way to church this morning and when we got home we realized that our heater was not working - the reason for the bundling. we are thankful to be warm and toasty tonight as the cold rain continues. go rocks! go sox!



we found this nice exersaucer in the deacon's closet - very fun! lucy chews on it constantly, like everything else within her reach!

zerberts

so fun!

stylin'

lucy's first day in sunglasses and jeans! (i can't keep from laughing when i see her in these sunglasses!) it was only a matter of minutes before the sunglasses became a teething toy on our walk...and here she is in her jeans riding her new elephant rocker - a gift from the zorgdragers. so fun! and just for kicks, a picture of scott in the new shades.

jinx and lucy

i started babysitting for jinxy and her brothers when jinx was 3 years old - now she is 9!!! here she is with lucy. it was so fun to see jinxy and her mom, tisha in boulder this weekend.

"talking"

we love these sweet sounds!

very funny.

we watched this skit over and over again with the teagues. random good, clean fun!

katy!

katy watches lucy two days a week. we are SO thankful for the sweet, gentle way that she loves our baby girl!

steamboat springs

here we are making memories with our dear friends reuben, rachel, kaatje and brody zylstra...we spent a couple of days together enjoying the changing leaves, cooking, relaxing, watching baseball, and hugging and kissing one another's kids! we are so grateful for these guys and look forward to raising our families together!

friendship

we are so grateful for the people in our life...for the ways you remind us of who God is and how He is at work in our midst...He so generously loves us through you

"Friendship is acting out God's love for people in tangible ways. We
were made to represent the love of God in each other's lives, so that
each person we walk through life with has a more profound sense of God's love for them. Friendship is an opportunity to act on God's behalf in the lives of the people that we're close to, reminding each other who
God is. When we do the hard, intimate work of friendship, we bring a
little more of the divine into daily life. We get to remind one another
about the bigger, more beautiful picture that we can't always see from
where we are."
