Fall

I just love the fall when the weather is beautiful and the trees and colorful.  But then comes the real fun . . . raking up big piles of leaves and jumping in them!  Isn't this what life is all about!  The boys did a great job helping me and enjoyed the fruits of their labors.  It was great fun!  We'll get to do it again as the trees still have plenty of leaves to share with us.  :)







Halloween and my own personal craziness


For the first time ever we let our boys go trick or treating.  They learned to only go to homes with the lights on and not to walk on people's lawns.  Yea, I'm a real fun mom!

Then, after they went to bed the real fun began!  I got to organize their candy which we plan to save for Christmas, New Years and any visitors because there was SO MUCH CANDY!  Yes, I am a little crazy but we all knew that going in, so James wanted me to show you my craziness as I organized the candy and then bagged it by type, so when you come to visit you can ask me for any kind you would like and I'll be prepared!


Birthday Party



I know I'm a bit late, but the party was a success.  The theme was animalish in nature, so we played Duck Duck Goose, drew pictures of mixed animals and came up with fun names, did animal relay races and decimated a pinata!  Here are some fun pics!
