It seems to me that when October hits, the party begins. We go from my birthday, to my mom's birthday, Halloween, Ed's mom's birthday, Thanksgiving, all my sister's birthdays, Ed's birthday, Christmas, and then Jared's birthday! Whoo, it's a whirlwind. I try not to get too overwhelmed by it all and try to enjoy the moment. Here's a few pics of what we've been up to.

Buzz Lightyear to the rescue!

Carli is REALLY trying to crawl!

We have a huge tree in our front yard that is shedding leaves like crazy. The Santa Ana winds are definitely giving the "fall" look a boost. Kira and Jared are having fun raking the leaves and then jumping in them or throwing them at each other. Productivity is at an all time low at our house.
