Midwest landscapes, Family, and Wedding Bells

Thanksgiving in Iowa
This Thanksgiving we traveled out to see my mom’s side of the family in Iowa. The house we spent most of the time in has three cats and two dogs. Micah loves animals. He spent a lot of his time chasing them around. Unfortunately he does not know how to pet them. Mostly he just…

Playing in the Autumn Leaves
The plaza in our neighborhood has a number of beautifully yellow trees that are all losing their leaves. Micah has never played in a pile of leaves before, so on the way home from picking up some lunch today we stopped and let Micah play in a pile of leaves. He was hesitant at first,…
