October

The weather has been so nice lately and The boys (James, Justin, Brad and Mike) drove down to a BYU/ Notre Dame football game this past weekend leaving us wives with all the kiddos. We decided to hit up a local Pumpkin Patch, and although it wasn't as nearly as impressive as some of the ones I've see out west, the kids still had fun. Even more fun when you get to spend the day with your cousins. I don't know what Elle is going to do when we move away from everyone. She is going to be one sad girl.

a little this a little that:)


Whew! Adding another child to our growing family has been a little harder than I imagined. I knew having Jack and Annie close was going to be a little trickier then when Jack was born, but I am still trying to figure it all out. Annie has been pretty colicky ever since she came home. We are hoping that she grows out of it sooner than later;) I love having a small baby at home again though. Its so fun and she is already getting so big! She is now weighing in at 11 lbs at 2 months old. I can't believe how time flies. These Chalk pictures were taken this past September. Elle and Jack have such a cute relationship. I love watching them play together. They laugh a lot and Jack idolizes that girl. I love my family of 5. Its such a  blessing to be a mom and a wife to them. I also love falls in Tennessee. They are seriously so nice and last so long. We are still enjoying warm weather here and I love the Winter truly doesnt come until December. My favorite things about fall are

The aromas. You can't have fall without pumpkin pie, spiced cider and cranberrilicious smells!
Thanksgiving. I get to see my family, there is nothing better than that and you get to eat lots of delish food;)
Family walks. We finally get to start spending some time outside again after these awful summers!
Halloween-Who doesn't like to dress up and eat candy? We kind of get into it:)
Pretty color changes, so gorgeous! Especially here in the south where there are so many trees around.

Little Annie and her first family outing

Here are a few pics of our sweet annie at 5 days old. She is such a blessing to our family and I still look at her in awe amazed that we made such a beautiful perfect baby. 

We went on our first family outing with Annie at about a week old. We just went to a nearby park but it was good to get out. The kids always like to play and look for "treasures". Love evenings like this we get to spend time together. James's schedule keeps him really busy so family time is a little bit more treasured then it was before.
