Fall so far...

I'm a bad blogger. I've been so busy with all the stuff we've been doing this fall I haven't been blogging!!! We ended September with a joint birthday party. Zack came in to Houston with his family for a birthday party and trip to Chuck E Cheese's.

Afterwards we sang happy birthday and had delicious cupcakes!!

They were yummy chocolate!! Grant and Henry eating them up.

Reed loved his and managed to NOT ruin his shirt in the process. :)

Lacey's birthday was the same day as the party!! Here she is blowing out her candles.

Wishing for a sooner due date.

I made her cupcakes so I can say there were perfect.

The boys have been having so much fun at school!! The second week was pet week. (Grant)

The culmination of pet week was making a dog or cat hat and getting your face painted!! How exciting!! (Reed)

My little doggies!!

The following week was all about me. Here's Grant's self portrait.

We also had picture day. Look at my handsome boys.

I can't wait to see how they turn out. (the pics not the children)

The weather has been sooooooooooo nice lately. It's been between 70-80 but dry and cool at night and in the morning. Last weekend we went for an afternoon walk in the park.

The boys love to ride in their wagon and Archi got tired after a while so he rode too. The boys loved when he rode. After the walk they got to play on the playground at the park. It was fun for all!

OK, so Mr. Archie Dog has decided that it's his calling in life to chase birds at the lake house. He has NEVER done this before and only recently became aware of the fact that this is his life's work. He has been getting more and more enthusiastic about his work and gets quite close to the edge of the bulkhead. He will run from one end of the yard to the other chasing the large birds that dare to invade our space. On Friday he had an incident. He was getting more and more brave about being on the edge of the actual bulkhead and would stand on the edge. Well he got a little boisterous and went over. We are so lucky that he didn't fall and hurt himself. We are also lucky that he didn't fall in the water and he landed on a flat rock, not a sharp one. Jeff came home quickly after I found him and we were able to rescue him. Hopefully he has learned his lesson. He has continued to chase the birds but he stays a little further from the edge now.
