Charlie and the Pumpkin












Ryan (via a suggestion from Tifani) was Charlie Brown for the big day Here he is bragging about his booty to a sweet church girl. We have yet to explain that Giving, not Gloating About the chocolate is the way to win a girl's heart.

David was a pumpkin (note the stem on the top of his head.) Neither boy gave me very good pictures (as you can tell).

Michael and Tifani came from Washington this past weekend. What a joy it was to have them here. We are all feeling the withdrawls, but possibly not as much as Ryan, for his Michael has taken off out of state again.

Also? My canning for the year is officially complete. The jars here are three deep, and hopefully will keep us fed through the winter. Ahh, welcome fall!

From what I can see...they look adorable in their costumes. And wow that was a lot of canning! But it should give you wonderful meals in the months to come.

Tracy -- Your two little costumed boys are adorable! And your rows of canning jars look like a stained-glass work of art. You've reminded me of your Grandma Rozen, and how much we looked forward to her jars of green beans and pickles. Sometimes I'd find Geoff in the pantry, counting the jars to make sure we still had enough of Grandma's pickles to last him until the next canning season.
With so much love,
Aunt Sydney

We enjoyed visiting you guys SO much! Your boys are adorable and so much fun. Michael loved his little shadow, Ryan, and spending time with the newest addition, David.

Also, thankfully for you, we got a ton of Charlie Brown and Pumpkin pictures! We will send you a disc soon.

Your canning booty looks awesome. I am very impressed. I just realized the other day that I forgot to take pictures of your beautiful canning accomplishment before we left, so thank you for posting a picture!

Love you guys!

Wow, completely impressed with all your canned goods! If you have a minute to list them out, I'd love to know what you actually "put up". Good job! You get 3 gold stars! :)

David is very cute! I love babies eyebrows :)
Also, all those canned fruits/veggies are making me hungry!

I think its sooooo beyond the call of "friendship" for Tifani to actually fly Michael back to play with Ryan, ha. That kiddo is such a "man's" child, Oma would only do to play trains until Opa arrived on the scene, ha. Good job Michael! Love the pictures of the boys. Love you 4, Mom g.
