So fall is officially upon us here in Northeast Ohio and I must admit I am rather enjoying it. The wet weather is not my favorite but I love going for walks with the kids and not feeling miserable (pregnant waddle aside).
Last Tuesday we went to meet Cody for lunch at Smuckers one last time before Morgan started preschool and wouldn't be able to go anymore. This was how they looked when we got home and were "hiding" in the door.
The next day, Wed. Sept. 14th was Morgan's first official day of 4yr preschool. He will be going every morning from 9-11:30. His school, Woodland Preschool, was just voted one of the Top 10 Preschools in Akron. I'm so glad we live so close to such a great school with amazing teachers and staff! I asked Morgan to pose for a "first day" picture and Pepper insisted on going first. Looking good Pepper!
My big, big boy!
My kids who insist on dressing themselves if you couldn't tell. Yes, those are sparkly Christmas socks Morgan is wearing with his new Clone Wars shoes.
This past Sunday, the 18th was our 7th wedding anniversary. On Thursday night, Cody brought me home this beautiful bouquet of roses. Cody has always been so good about bringing me flowers on special occassions and I never seem to remember he's going to do it. Such a good hubby I have!

Cody's cousin, Robin, and her family met us at the temple and were kind enough to take our kids home for the night. So Cody and I checked into our hotel, got milkshakes and went to see a movie, The Help. Such a lovely, lovely date night!
Saturday morning we had a big, yummy breakfast then headed back to the beautiful Columbus Temple to do some sealings. Such a great way to celebrate your marriage and wedding day!
This is me not knowing how to pose and feeling uncomfortable in front of the camera as always.

The happy couple after all these years
The happy couple after all these years(and yes I was being sarcastic because I realize 7 is still only the beginning.)
After the temple, we headed over to Robin's house to hang out with everyone for the rest of the afternoon then head home. Not surprised to find this when we got there. They were having an epic lightsaber battle on the trampoline. Thank you, Aaron, for being such a great sparring partner for Morgan!
Morgan showing off his jedi skills and Aaron probably nursing his most recent wound.
Andy was nice enough to wake Pepper up early from her nap so we could all play together. She really liked playing with Uncle Cody; who doesn't?!
Later we found Aaron and Morgan defending the home from invaders. Not sure if that is a common problem but I know I felt much safer.
Pepper joined the watch.
After a very yummy pizza dinner, we packed up the kids and headed home. We needed to be home for church on Sunday because it was Morgan's first primary program as a Sunbeam. He did a great job speaking his line, sitting with his class and singing the songs. I was sitting with my primary class and couldn't see him very well but a lot of people said he was quite entertaining. I wouldn't expect anything less from my son!

My kids had the best time and can't wait to get back together with their new cousins again! We are also so grateful for our marriage and the knowledge that we get to be together with our family for time and all eternity!
I love you Cody; you are and always will be my favorite!
