To Blog or Not to Blog
That's the question, So we're bringing it to you the readers. Eric and I are not sure our readership is well... existent. We're both on facebook and often post there as well so we're wondering if we need to keep up two social media sites or just one. In addition, I'm not the prolific writer in my family and don't have capacity to write the interesting stories such as you find on Kendall or Seth's blog so I put a lot of pictures, Some may say too many pictures. So we look to you for feedback,
So here we go, I'd love some feedback from you the readers/viewers, If you don't mind please take a minute to fill out our surveys.

Annual Averill/Tate/Neuteboom Pumpkin Patch Trip!
It's that time of year again... My FAVORITE time of year in fact. Within the beautiful fall is one of my very favorite traditions. The annual pumpkin patch trip. Dad and I starting taking Sophie to the pumpkin patch when she was about 2 or 3 years old. They continued the tradition while I was away at college and now we've added my incredible husband and his family and of course our beautiful girl Bella. This year we timed it perfectly and were able to have the Neutebooms join us as well as Sophie's boyfriend Matt, it was an excellent time as always.
We always stop by to see how tall we are, I think everyone but Bella has stopped growing but it's still worth it!
This seemed to be the first year Bella really picked out her pumpkins, she was in full control of her choices and loaded them up in the wagon as soon as she had decided. We have 5 little pumpkins (literally) along the wall.
The animals are part of the fun for Bella, this year she fed them with bits of grass.
Pumpkin Launch is always an annual tradition as well and until this trip not a single one of us had successfully hit a target. However, our new addition, Matt managed to do so on his first try. Good way to impress the family I think!!!
Watch out for the Headless Horseman! Trying on different heads!
And of course, we always end our trip with a family portrait. Eric and my first portrait became our save the date cards and we've been capturing our trip to the patch ever since! Only this year, Bella wanted to challenge the traditional position.
We got a great one anyway!
I think Sophie and Matt had fun!
And as usually we ended up with pumpkin carving and Chili, This year was more pumpkin stickering than carving but adorable all the same.
Happy Pumpkin Hunting!

Happy 90th Birthday Pappy!
My Grandfather turned 90 this October. It's hard to believe he's lived for almost a century. Granny invited us in to Topeka to celebrate with Cake and ice cream. It was a nice relaxed open house where we could just sit back and enjoy the family. Bella also enjoyed her first real leaf pile of the season. Eric tends to mow up our leaves so we don't make quite the same piles at our house. However, at Granny Sook's Uncle Will and Poppy were more than willing to create the biggest leaf pile they could for Bella to jump in. Eric got some great pictures as she played in the leaves.
Jumping in with me and by herself!!
Uncle Will even let her bury him in the leaves, he scored major Uncle points for that one!
And of course, in Bella's eyes, no party is complete without the Birthday cake, Bella even got to help Nana and Great Auntie Pat put on the candles and I was lucky enough to bring it out to my Pappy for him to blow them out!
Mmmmmmmm.....Blue, Blue Cake.......
Happy Birthday Pappy, I love you!!!!
