happy fall

I love this time of year!!! I used to hate it when I lived in Minnesota because it meant the long cold winter was coming, paired with that sick feeling of school starting again, made it my least favorite. Even with prospect of the holidays coming up, I still couldnt muster up any like for this season, but here in Texas, with I love it. The weather is great, just my style, and I love having kids this time of year. Halloween starts it all off, then Thanksgiving, Ashlyn's birthday, christmas and then Jaydens birthday all keep this time of year full of fun and exciting things. The first has come and gone, and we had a great Halloween. Here's some more pictures from this last week.





Rylan is starting to eat solids. I dont know if its all the new food, or me not nursing anymore, teeth coming in, growing pains, his cough, or being hungrier from growing, but he's gotten a little grumpy these days. He goes to the doctor tomorrow and maybe we can get some insight. Wishful thinking I know, but I cant help but be an optimist.

Ashlyn finally got to be snack leader and bring home patty the pony. Shes supposed to keep a journal entry on her weekend with it, and she has gone photo frenzy. Heres one of her snuggling Rylan, and one of her with the pony on Halloween.
Rylan loves sucking on the bottom of glasses. He can spot them a mile away and loves to chomp them. Its pretty amusing.


Heres us at family movie night which we have starting having every friday night. This week Ratatouille.


Here are two picture taken by a friend at fire fest last weekend. This is a truck of one of Josh's friend, and they loved being in there. They spent most the day there.


Two more Halloween pictures. You can see Ashlyn's glitter in this one.
You can see a little more of Rylan's costume here. It says little stinker on the back.

I love the fall too! It's kinda weird living in another climate during this time of year. Summer is starting here and all the stores have Christmas stuff...bizarre!

I have to disagree with you on your preference of location for this season. I am thoroughly enjoying the Indiana fall much more than in Tucson. I think the temperature here isn't as extreme as it was in MN though.
Very cute pictures, I'll be posting my halloween pics in just a minute :)

Looking at your pictures I just realized how much hair Rylan has and how little Carter has now. :)

I am also loving the weather. It is days like today that remind me why we left Utah and came to Texas.

In Finland today the street lights were on at 2pm, and my friend Anthony (from England) and I were preparing ourselves mentally for the long winter. Bring it on! :)
