October

I love so many of these polaroid pics that Chris took during this time period. Living at Spruce. Els being little and playful. She had a few friends in the neighborhood that we referred to them as scooter gang. So sweet.

I could have used it on a ton of photos around the house but came across this old Polaroid of Elsie making her doll house that I knew I had to use it here! 

Chris bought the frame for the house already assembled but she used paper and other decorations to make it her own.

Pic taken outside Meridian. That beautiful tree. It feels like so long ago (it’s 2025 right now, right before Kira is getting married) to see pics of her with us. Like it’s been so long since she’s lived here but it’s only been 5 years. Why does that feel so long? Maybe because she’s so far away.
