Cecilia turned 3 months old on Thursday last week. I still can't believe that she has been here that long. Time is going so fast. She is getting so big and strong. She is talking all the time. She talks the most in the morning, and Jon and I call it her "talk show". Tune in for about an hour every morning starting at about 6:45 for CeKate's news.
On Friday we got packed up and headed to Sterling, CO to visit Uncle Pete at school. Grandma and Pops carpooled with us, and Ma and Pa met us there too.
Petey gave us a tour of his campus, we had dinner, and then Ma, Grandma, and Petey carved pumpkins in the student center.
It was Cecilia's first night at a hotel. She did pretty well. She wanted to check everything out, so she had a harder time going to sleep, but she slept well once she finally went down. In the morning she invited Pops on to her talk show.
After breakfast we headed to see where Uncle Pete works. It was fascinating. Petey works on a feed lot, just down the road from his school. The grain elevator is gigantic, and Petey did a great job explaining how everything works. He gave us the tour from start to finish as if we were the cows. 
It was really muddy from all of the snow melt, so that made the experience much more challenging and ummmm....... fragrant :)
Petey showed us how the grain elevator works from start to finish, and how the feed gets mixed in the big trucks to be the perfect blend of food for the cows. In Petey's words, "the grain elevator is DI".
We made it home just in time to get Cecilia ready for her first Halloween. She was cute as a pumpkin! 
My favorite trick-or-treater this year was a little boy dressed as a pirate. After I gave him candy, he asked me, "Do you know where I live?" I thought, oh no, he is lost! I said "no..." He started to skip away and said loudly "ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRvada!" Get it- RRRRRR- like a pirate, so CUTE!!!Uncle Nick and Megan stopped by to see Cecilia on Sunday. It was good to see them both.
