All Aboard! Joseph & Stone were thrilled to be riding the train together. This was our night on the town on Friday evening. The weather has finally gotten a bit cooler. We rode the boat, had some ice cream and enjoyed visiting with our friends. Joseph is totally infatuated with Baby Rhodes. He gives lots of kisses each time we see him. Yesterday, we picked up Oma from the airport and spent the rest of the afternoon reading Halloween books and decorating the house. Brian has been busy working at the festival and last night I had a chance to join him. Lots of good food and wine! Oma, Joseph, Kathryn & Vee headed to another local fall festival and had a good time. From what I hear, Joseph had ice cream and cotton candy and loved it!

This morning started off on a crazy note. When I opened the front door to go out and get the paper, a lizard ran into the house. Brian tried to catch it but declared that it just moves too fast. Unfortunately, the lizard ran into the bathroom and escaped through a very tiny crevice between the wall and the cabinet. Afterwards, we headed outdoors for a morning nature walk to enjoy the cool breeze.
Both of the Koziol men have their Bears garb on and are ready for the big game. The smaller one can barely keep his eyes open, so naptime is approaching. Auntie Lisa and Uncle John are heading to Soldier Field to see the Bears from a skybox! Pretty nice, right? We can't wait to hear all about it. I thought Brian was going to catch a flight this morning and try to meet them there!
