I am quite a bit behind this month, but here we finally are! September was a busy, but fantastic month for us. We have been thankful for a slight change in the weather, though ready for full-fledged fall!
We got to eat quite a bit of yummy food, trying to get the last of the grilling season in! It was a rough start to the month with some loss, but we tried to do some fun stuff too. One football game, Jonathan and I went on a date night and we went to the orchard as well! All in one weekend...we were beat by the end of that.
I have spent a lot of time cooking and trying to keep our kitchen stocked. It has been a task to get everything figured out with the whole being back to work and having to get three kids out the door thing. The best strategy seems to be taking my breakfast, so I am keeping things on hand for that, it is a lot of fun keeping up with all of it but also takes some time!

We have also been doing school this month, William is learning his letters and Amelia is working on handwriting, math, womanhood and practicing reading. Jonathan is doing some science with the kids and we are studying worldview as a family as well! They are having a blast with all of it and I am so proud of how hard they are working and the joy with which they work! We have been having such a great time with it.
One weekend Mom and I took the kids to a cross country meet while Jonathan cleaned the barn up, then we had the fall fest at church, which was a lot of fun and we went swimming after that! It was a very big day, but so much fun. We got to see all sorts of people we love, which means a ton to all of us!
Slowly, but surely, we are getting the house cleaned for the winter. We had a bit of set back after I scrubbed the upstairs carpet, William damaged his neck. I know that makes no sense, but that's how life goes with a little boy! I spent a few days taking him to and from the chiropractor, which also gave us the chance to go get apples too!
I got to take the girls to a baby shower, which is always a blast. Jonathan and William worked on some stuff outside and then the Landis' came over for supper and Jonathan grilled us some delicious food! The kids had a great time and we got to hear about their trip.
It was a great month, we got quite a few things accomplished and were so blessed by our time together as a family and with all the people around us. Lots of stuff going on around here this fall as we try to wrap up the outdoor weather, but we will get through it and enjoy every moment!
Happy fall!
Jonathan, Allison, Amelia, William and Vivian
