Happy Halloween!

Yes, this is the third year the rooster has been used by my boys.  But hey, at least we're getting our money's worth!

A few of the reasons I LOVE fall...

It's tradition...


Owen had a few days off of school last week, so we took a day to go to a local farm for some fall fun. It's the same one we've taken Owen to every fall since he was a baby, so this trip always holds a special place in my heart. And although it was a windy day, the boys had a blast! Who knows, we might just try to make another trip before the end of the month.

Lost...


Owen's tooth, that is. Yep, our boy lost his first tooth today! It's an exciting day in our house, that's for sure. And although he won't be convinced there is any such thing as the tooth fairy, we've at least talked him in to playing along so he can get a little cash out of the deal. I do have to point out, though, that this is Owen's first "first" that I wasn't there for...and it's a bit emotional for me! His tooth actually came out at school during recess, so his teacher was the first grown-up to see it. Good thing they have an official lost tooth certificate or I would have really been bummed to miss such a big event. Owen, you're growing up faster than I could ever have imagined. I love you, kiddo!
