Well, we are moved in, settled down and back to life.

And life is busier than ever!! Jon has been creating his classes, coming up with lessons, creating tests, attending meetings, and basically having a blast being a college professor. I have been creating classes, coming up with lessons, creating assessments, attending meetings, and basically having a blast teaching 5th grade. LOL I bet you never thought of your college professors living similar lives to your elementary teachers, did you?

Anna has been busy attending 2 schools. She attends a Montessori preschool chartered by La Crosse School District in the am and then attends the UW-L Child Care Center in the afternoons. It is extremely convenient for Jon as he can pop in and have lunch with Anna once in a while because the child care center is the building next to his! Anna loves both her schools and on Mondays she goes to dance class.

Emmett has the privilege of going to a dear friend of ours home day care - Jenny Wright. We were so lucky to find that Jenny had an opening. Her son is only 1 month older than Emmett and so cute together. Not to mention Jenny is so wonderful with him!! And I get to reconnect with a friend - great combination if you ask me!

Anna gets her hands dirty carving pumpkins.

Of course, Anna HAD to be a princess at the last minute. I'm so glad I didn't put a lot of effort into the ADORABLE lady bug costume she originally decided on.  Emmett tolerated being a vampire.

Testing our our winter accessories. These days, getting shots of Emmett, are... well... challenging.


Someone is a mama's boy.


Trying on some of mama's shoes


How are we liking La Crosse? Loving it! Of course, it hasn't really snowed yet (we had one day but it was gone within a day) so ask me in about a month...
