Happy Fall!!

The maple tree out front is a beautiful shade of golden yellow, the days are mild...the nights are chilly & there is a rotting jack-o-lantern on our front porch. It must mean that autumn is here!

Ashton enjoyed being a dragon at his preschool Halloween party then a spooky skeleton for trick-or-treating with his cousins. Sierra was a lil chic complete w/ orange feet and fluffy yellow feathers. I know, I know, it sounds odd...I mean aren't all little girls supposed to be fairies or princesses for Halloween? Trust me, I was all set on it until daddy pointed out the little chicken costume & it was just too cute to pass up. She still has that "I'm a new walker" waddle which was perfect! The kids had a blast & Jamie and I are relieved to have made it through the holiday without any peanut related incidents...Halloween is an all new kind of scary now!

We're already planning the Thanksgiving menu and looking forward to Christmas season...this time of year goes by so fast! Didn't we just take down the Christmas tree? Hard to believe that it will be time to put it back up in only a few weeks!

Until then...wishing everyone a wonderful fall!!!
