This is a gorgeous time of year in Montana. I'm sure you're all wanting pictures of the boys, but this is the best I could do. The pictures above were taken in our backyard. One of the Whitefish River, the other of a creek. We're really enjoying the trees changing color. There's lots of gold, orange and red. The mountain is lightly dusted with snow, I think it may be here to stay. The ski resort opens December 8 and Doug cannot wait.
In other news, all Peppmeier boys are doing great. Both are really enjoying school and all other activities. We finally completed the basement which means they have a playroom and new bedrooms. I love having a living room not covered in toys and the house just feels so much more comfortable. Except for painting our bedroom and a den I'm very content with the house and looking forward to enjoying the rest of the year in cozy comfort.
October has been the month for visitors. My mom was here earlier in the month. We really enjoyed relaxing and spending time together. This past week our friends the Knights visited for five days. We had such a nice time. The kids had a blast and we enjoyed catching up and having a few adult evenings out. We went to Glacier Park and even took a short hike. The pictures below Doug took along the way.
It's Spider-Man and Batman for Halloween this year. I had my heart set on Batman and Robin (perfect height difference, plus I'm a sucker for duos) but it wasn't meant to be. I've learn when it comes to negotiating with a two-year-old there's no way I'm going to win. Halloween festivities include school parties and trick-or-treating in our neighborhood. Everybody's looking forward to it!
We've had the pleasure of watching Stef and Scott's house being built. Easily the boys and I drive by the house once a day, if not twice. The boys love seeing the changes and it's fun to watch the progress. 
Have you ever seen this look? I get it all the time! Especially if I pull out the camera. Will usually looks away and Jack refuses to smile. Thank goodness for digital cameras! Today was warm and sunny. We haven't had a day like that in quite a while. Thankfully we were able to get outside and enjoy the weather.
