Last Thanksgiving, Emily nicknamed the five of us “the Powlunds”. We have already been through so much together and I feel blessed to have our Dave and Em for life. I read somewhere, “Friends are the family we choose for ourselves.” With Dave and Emily these words are so true. Emily told me that Dave said, “I love that Addi thinks we really are her aunt and uncle!” Uncle Dave and Auntie Em are so important to Addi! We always have a lot of fun when we are together — whether it is Em and I laughing about how Dave and Dylan share the same brain, a impromptu hike, an afternoon of pizza and movies, a princess dance party or an evening of pumpkin guts — we usually don’t stop laughing the whole time!
Dylan and Dave spent Saturday fishing … I know, SHOCKING!!

We carved pumpkins. Both Addi and Dave were disgusted with scooping out the pumpkin guts!
So much so, that it made Addi gag. She literally almost threw up!
Daddy teasing Addi with the pumpkin guts.
“Daddy, those guts are so slimy”
She got used to it and ended up enjoying the guts!
On Sunday afternoon we went on a beautiful fall hike. The fall colors were amazing. A really neat old mine shaft followed the creek.
A giant washout took out the road and made the only way to cross the creek was on this cattle barrier…that won’t stop us!

See you soon Em.
