Cool crisp air, all of the beautiful colors of leaves that the VA trees bring, breaking out the sweaters that I have been storing for the past three years, a fire in the fireplace, Thanksgiving which leads to Christmas .....ahh, I could go on and on. A week and a half ago we had some pretty bad winds (75MPH gusts) and three days of non. stop. rain! With that came a lot of leaves off of the trees, limbs all over and for Miss A's enjoyment, an inner tube for her to play with, (not sure which neighbor it belongs to). She gets so excited to go outside and play in this thing. So while I am raking the leaves she is playing with her new found toy, Bailey is running around chasing the falling leaves and Mr. B is just hanging out all cozy in his rocker. One thing I will miss in VA is the certainty of snow in the winter, otherwise I think the weather is perfect, and we are enjoying as much of it as we can.

'Showering' Mr. B
Today the ladies of our squadron (Thanks Junko and Steph) 'showered' Brennan and I with wonderful company, great food and gifts. One of the gals, Carla, made this little video and sent it out to share with everyone so I am 'borrowing' it (Thanks Carla!!) to share with you all. How blessed we are with so many warm hearted people to share the day with, thanks ladies of 27th!!
Here are a few more pictures of the morning.
Just the 'sweetest' idea for dessert!
Getting spoiled by all of the ladies!

Happy Birthday Daddy!
We celebrated Brad's birthday last week since he was going to be gone. We made him a pillowcase with pictures of the kids to take with him so he could fall asleep and wake up with them everyday. I also attempted to make his Grandma's homemade angle food cake. It tasted good, but still not the same as hers and never will be I am coming to realize =-)




Brad, we miss you and love you!
The kids wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday.
~Enjoy~

We love visitors
Our cousin Katie was in town for a friend's baby shower and we were lucky enough to have her stop by for a visit. It was so much fun to introduce her to the little man and see how silly Miss A is getting. Here are a few pictures.
Thank you Katie for stopping by, it was so nice to be able to introduce you to the little man.

Pumpkins and leaves
Last weekend we were able to carve pumpkins for the first time and play in the leaves. Miss A tried to eat the seeds and goopy middle, but after she got a taste, she figured out she would rather put it in the bag. She also was not too thrilled about being put into a pile of leaves, but hey, tradition right?!! Enjoy the pictures.
Oh yeah, here is just a fun picture of what I got to wake up to one morning when Daddy got up with Miss A. The traction on her PJ's were not doing her justice so she got to sport her new kicks and loved it!
