Erin and Lincoln are the November birthdays in the Gransee family, and we had fun celebrating them last week. Caramel apples are hard to put a candle in, but we thought they sounded good anyway!

Since they are only three days apart, we celebrated Lincoln and Noel’s first birthday with a little family party. Can’t wait to watch these two cousins grow up together!

These guys LOVED trick-or-treating this year! We’ve got the army guy, the sheriff, and the UPS man.

These are the expressions we get when Uncle Kyle stands behind the camera and tells them to make a mean face!

Snow Day

We took a little weekend away and headed up north to spend time with family at the cabin. We did not expect to see this!

I love the contrast of the white snow and the red fall leaves.

So we stayed inside by the fire, to build little cabins and train tracks, and watch movies…

But the next day, it was warm enough for fishing, rhino rides on the forest roads, and playing outside. Best of both worlds in one little weekend.

These guys always take a little nap when they ride on the rhino. Not sure if it’s the bumpy road or the fresh air?

On Sunday, October 2nd, we dedicated Lincoln to the Lord with our church family. It was a sweet and special time for us to publically commit ourselves as parents to raise him up to know who God is, and how He wants to be our Savior. My dad, as an elder in our church, prayed for our family during the dedication.

Then we had a small gathering of family over to our house for dessert. Always nice to be able to celebrate little milestones with loved ones.
