October Things

October here
Say hi for memories sake:)
My first trip to the pumpkin patch was with my dear friend Michaela of whom I have spent many a Halloween with in my 20's!
The stories I should tell one day:)
my favorite shop on main street looking fall-ish

me and Michaela!
so. many. football. games.



there is no specific order to this mess of a post 
documenting the build is my part time job!


My first Pumpkin Festival. 
Hard to believe :)
I volunteered for the basketball pancake breakfast and then just walked around. It was fun!
I also bought some linen pillowcases. 
What is my bedding problem? 
Homecoming! 
Dance was Saturday night at a Marriot hotel in San Mateo. 
DJ told the kids on the dancefloor that our school
 was the most hype he had had.
 Proof that these kids in HMB just want to GET OUT!








my Halloween minions!
one is in a bat costume, the other is dressed as a kitty and I love them!

pumpkin-ing with Audrey
She is always up for little adventures!


She still is my number one carver. 
She even scraped all the guts out for Chester to carve his:) 
spoiled brother! 
That should've been his costume. 
I love Halloween and October things :)

Sports Mom Era

I think I saw this coming but maybe I didn't really see this coming:) I am a sports mom. Plain and simple. I had other hats too like library mom, classroom aid mom, costumes for musicals mom, outdoorsy hiking mom, musical mom, jazz band mom, tech crew mom, art mom, spring break mom, etc etc etc But sports mom has been a pretty big theme in my life:) So, in honor of my Dad's birthday today and his absolute love of sports, I share this to save the memoires.  Because one day, it will be just that, sweet and crazy sports mom era memories:) Okay, so I love JV games because the weather at 4pm in the Bay Area and even coast side was amazing last year. Tee shirt and jeans? Heavenly  Fall 2024 (he already looks different) Friday morning fits Becky Ruppel photography↑ In the middle of football season lies the beast of the high school basketball pancake breakfast. It was actually fun to serve all of the people coming through... even the complainers...haha Homecoming! And nothing better t...

Audrey Opens Her Mission Call!

It's been so long since I wrote. but THIS! This needs to be recorded for all.  Earlier in the fall of 2024, after wondering why she hadn't had any specific experience letting her know if she should serve a mission, Audrey did receive her own personal answer. You already know. She called me and relayed her quiet yet powerful experience.   She later met with her YSA Bishop and opened her mission papers!      Everything fell into place with all her appointments and paperwork *phew  On the morning of December 31st...she received an email alerting her she had her call waiting to be opened in her missionary portal! She was all nerves haha So, we got ready and headed to Montara Beach per her request to read her call...and thankfully, we were all home to share this with her.  Such a sweet and tender moment to launch 2025 with💗 Dominican Republic  Santo Domingo East Mission! Spanish speaking June 2nd Mexico MTC after a week of home MTC :) I'm really proud...

Pre-mission things to do were: picture with flag at temple ✓ hikes in the sun✓ being set apart as a missionary in our home✓ home mtc p-day shenanigans✓ last taco bell supper :) ✓ hugs that need to last 18 months✓ Her first MTC phone call home. She had too much fun there but why not? This missionary mom will send you one package to the mtc... and that's it :) Upon arrival, she met her mission presidents!  Presidente y Hermana Chaverri Meeting her trainer in the field:) And after a mini transfer, meeting her new trainer!
