Grandma Dot's Halloween Tea Party!

It was so fun to be in town this year for Grandma Dot's Halloween tea party. :0) She always does so much work and the kids had such a great time. :0) We had fun eating all the yummy food and playing in the leaves. Thanks Grandma!! We love you!! :0)

Oh, how I love the fall...

This has been an exceptional month! I haven't seen fall leaves for almost 7 years now....and I LOVE IT!! Every street is filled with beautiful colors... The air is so fresh and crisp... It's usually just the perfect jacket weather (that still allows for flip flops)... We are having a great time! :0)

Earlier in the month, Joni, my girls and I went to Salt Lake and spent the day with Aunty Lori, Lydia and had so much fun shopping, eating, and hangin with the Bunnell fam! We also saw all the crazy funny witches at the Gardens and there were lots of places for photo ops. Cutest girls ever, right? :0)

My children are experiencing the change of seasons for the first time. ("seasons" in arizona are a little less exciting...hehe) Weather in general is a bit new and sometimes confusing for them. They get very excited about any weather at all other than beautiful sunshine. The other day, when there was a slight breeze and several leaves fell from the trees, the girls starting cheering, jumping up and down and saying, "Yeah!! it's christmas time! It's christmas time!!" Convinced that leaves falling is just the same as snow falling....which they have learned to connect to christmas. hehe... Won't it be fun for them when the many many days of snow come and go....with no christmas. :0)

I really am loving the fall though. I hope that next year, after experiencing a full winter, I can still appreciate the fall as I have this year. :0)

We have arrived! (in a cyber sense...)

Hey there blogging world! We have finally arrived! I seriously doubt my ability to maintain this fabulous blog, but we'll give it a go anyway. :0)
