Brown Paper Packages
My children are very loved. Extremely loved, from all over the world, they are loved. And this week they were not only loved, but spoiled! My mom and dad's sweet, sweet friend's Tricia and Andy Macfarlane sent the nicest package full of wonderful treats for the whole family.
This buzzy bee was sent when Evie was a baby, and while our little Bea can't really play with it yet, she does love to look at it when she is having tummy time.
The little red booties were her very special present. I will post a picture of her wearing them as soon as she gets over the vaccination crankies.
Everett recieved two wonderful books about the "little yellow digger." We have read them every day since they arrived. I love the rhymes and the illustrations too! Talina came over this week and Everett had special cuddle time and showed his "Talllleeena" his new books.

Which one to read first? Such a tough decision!
The next day, the kids were spoiled again. This time by their uncle Kit. He and his sweetheart Amy, put together the cutest package for my babies. Everett got not one but TWO new "life is good" shirts. I could barely talk him into taking the orange one off!
It says "little helper" in case you can't read it. And my sweet boy certainly is.
The other shirt is a wee bit big for this year. But so funny and seasonally appropriate, so I had to take a picture!

On the farm
On Monday, the last day of my dad's visit, we took a drive out to my Baba's farm. The weather couldn't have been lovelier and both kids enjoyed the fresh air. I took over 200 pictures and have tried to cull them to best represent the beautiful Flint Hills in October. I am looking forward to Russ returning so we can take a family trip out and maybe have our first bonfire of the season. Again, hopefully, these bring a bit of cool Kansas air to my sweetie, at least in his imagination.
