These are some pictures Tiff took from our trip to the Arboretum Saturday. We went out to let Ava run around and be a kid in the gorgeous fall weather we've had the last few days (fingers crossed that it sticks around for a while!). She had a blast and carried around pumpkins that weighed as much as she does. It was the 1st time we'd been, and it was a perfect spot to just let her run and play...and be her crazy little self! She was mesmerized by the huge 715 lb pumpkin. I'm sure she would have tried to carry it off if we had let her!
I guess I'm just your basic stay at home mom with 2 crazy kiddos...figuring out what I want to be "when I grow up". You know...struggling to find that balance between raising well-rounded children without losing my own identity. Fitting both Mom and Veronica into a short 24 hour day...oh yeah, and Jon's wife has to make it in there somewhere too! I'm obsessed with anything that has to do with remodeling my house (imagine a long eye roll, and huge sigh from Jon), and love to cook...although I'm pretty sure my skills aren't really up to par with my enthusiasm, but no one will tell me that! In a perfect world I'd be flipping houses and have my own cooking show, or a little cafe...maybe someday! For now I'm more than content to be a pretty good wife and mom...and most days I think I do okay. Others I think my husband gives me way more credit than I deserve. Right now it is play dates, the occasional date night, treasured time with friends and family, budget renovations, more go-to favorites than overly ambitious meals, and a quest to find my inner athlete! Hopefully I can get you to crack a smile. At the very least, I might have you sending me the stink eye!
