These Days

I have gotten really slack with my photos on instagram. Life hasn't been super photo worthy lately. Just a lot of greasy hair and sweat pants for me. I've been gutting all of our possessions lately and am trying to get as lean as possible. I hate being suffocated by stuff so I am trying to get rid of everything that we either don't need or don't love. It's not easy, but it is SO rewarding in the long run. For weeks I've been complaining about how we don't have enough cabinet space in our kitchen. Well, yesterday I went through and reorganized all of our cabinets, pulling out all of our expired cans or any food I knew we wouldn't eat, and got rid of any kitchen tools that I don't really use and realized that we actually have plenty of space. More than we need in fact! It's a great feeling, plus I cleared up space in other areas of the house where I was storing appliances and such and now have more room to store away things that didn't have a home before! So long story short, I have been trying to minimize our possessions and clutter and haven't time for much else.  



We are on our way today to Atlanta to spend time with Fico's family for Thanksgiving. Hope everyone has a great time with their families and loved ones!! Happy Thanksgiving.

Halloween Festivities

This is the little punkin that Casen painted at "school". He was so proud of it, and got so upset when we inevitably had to throw him out.  

We went to our friends' Henry and Amber's house to carve pumpkins a couple days before halloween. Casen did a little bit of helping out with everyone's pumpkins in between whacking things with sticks and running around like a wand baring wizard.  


On halloween night, we went to a trunk-or-treat down the road from where we live. There were bouncy houses and tons of candy of course so who could say no. Casen had a blast. Anders just wasn't sure what to think about it all. Poor little hotdog.
