Ryzen lost his first teeth

The mighty baker

Fall Soccer
Both Ryzen and Zade's soccer teams were coached by the Whitings.  They had a great season, and improved a lot.  They also both scored goals in multiple games, which they were very happy about.

Annual Accounting Circle Football Game
Hanging out with Daniel Bayley, who graduated with me from the MAcc nearly 15 years ago.

And onto the back porch, where they like to relieve themselves... much to Tara's chagrin. 

But they're still so cute!

Fun with the leaves

Haunted Corn Maze

Giant Sequoia Seedlings from the city of Eugene
As part of the 2021 initiative, we were able to get roughly 50 seedlings to plant in our yard for free.  I'm really excited.  I'd love to have more of a forest for a yard.  This is obviously a long term project, but I'm happy to be able to pursue it.

Apple Tree

In the front of our yard there's an apple tree that we really haven't paid much attention to, and it apparently has a ton of little apples we were able to harvest.  It was a pleasant surprise.  

 With the kids help, Tara turned the apples into apple butter, which they all enjoyed.

Trunk or Treatin' at the Church

Then off to the Business school a few days later for more candy.

And then into the neighborhoods with the Yorgesens, Whitings, and Hallocks for even more fun.
