September 2014

September was a busy, fun month for the Swishers!

We spent Labor Day playing on the Poudre River, enjoying our last weekend of summer.

Henry's first day of preschool at Wee Love!!

Watching sister's soccer practice.

First game of the season, snacks with Kai.

The fall kick-off Sunday barbecue for our church. The kids had a great time bouncing around with their friends.

Pete had a bounce house all to himself for a few minutes and thought it was great.

Discovering lincoln logs, these were Papa's when he was a kid.

Soccer takes over our family's Saturdays for a few months. :)

Our early walker, Pete started walking at about 9 1/2 months!

While we were house sitting for my parents for a few weeks we had two slimy visitors. 

While Henry was watching the snake, Jane had to show me the raspberries she picked.

Daddy came home and took care of it for us…

Our second little friend was trapped until the wildlife re-locators could come check out the house to see where they were coming in. I almost abandoned our house sitting job.

Another friend, we found him in the backyard. He stayed with us for a few days and then we let him go  by the river.

These two were sad to see him go.

Our summer weather stayed around for a long time this fall! 

Helping Papa install new weather guards to block out snakes. :)

Jane's fall party at school, they got to meet Clifford!

Jane moved downstairs to her own room! She was pretty excited!

A park morning with my boys.

Henry will color for hours. :) His pictures are very colorful.

My sweet little helper. 

A day in the mountains to celebrate the life of my grandfather, Bill Higgins. The kids were happy to spend some time with their second cousins - Emily and Jenny.

A visit to our favorite zoo, Cheyenne Mountain.

Pete's first time feeding the giraffe.

Love that view!!

Our little school girl, all dressed up and ready for kindergarten!
