Our Luke/Dad came home from training and we have been getting back to normal and having A LOT of FUN doing it. We are so proud of his accomplishments so I made a welcome home cake.

We are almost back to normal, whatever that is, and have spent a lot of time outdoors as a family. We all need fresh air and the kids love it! One of the great features of our neighborhood in Chattanooga is the river trail that runs along the Tennessee river and the new additions that run behind our house on South Chickamauga Creek. It features several miles of elevated wood boardwalk with lots of tree covered twists and turns and great views of the creek. Shown below are a few shots for the most recently completed sections upriver from Stretchi Farm.

Family is so important to all of us and getting the time to spend it together is just so fantastic! We have been to Little Rock City, Rocktown and new places like the Stone Door (shown in the photos above and below) and this time of year they are absolutely spectacular! I haven't found the love of the Southeast terrain like I do of the West, but this area of middle Tennessee is stunning and really gorgeous in the fall!
Kestrel was so sleepy.... so we couldn't help but take this short video on a hike at the Stone Door.

One of my favorite end of October activities is pumpkin carving!
We ended October with a wonderful neighborhood Halloween Party!! I was on the planning committee and, even though it was a lot of work, we all had a great time. Layton went to school on Friday as Harry Potter, but he went to the party and trick or treated as a Vampire. Kestrel went as a lion.
Bring on November!!!!!!
