October is such a fun month...
The temperature changes, fall traditions begin...
and with 6 kids we are BUSY!
I attended Parent Teacher Conferences
and Steven left me this little gem!!!
He is such a sweet tender boy!
I love him so much!
This cute thing loves her Tu-Tu's....
She said to me, "Look mom, I'm wearing my tute!"
She is so funny and we truly adore her!
Thank Goodness for a little girl!
We have a "Fall" Tradition with our next door neighbors
the Kindred's.... We get together and have caramel apples
each year... This year, we did it a bit different...
Chili, Corn Bread, and Caramel Apples for dessert!
The Apples and Caramel we so yummy!!!
Talk about the perfect BITE!
Each October for Fall Break we head to CALIFORNIA!
It's a highlight for me!!!
I just love going home!
This year instead of going to Hollister 1st...
we went to Clovis to see Kim and the triplets!
My kids can not get enough of them!!!
Actually...either can I...
Talk about YUMMY!!!!
the boys just HAD to hold the baby boys
in the Baby Bjorns....
They are so cute with these babies!!!
This little girl is such a great traveler...
She doesn't sleep AT ALL....
But she doesn't cry either.... Thank Goodness...
It's a blessing since I go alone and the 12 hour drive one way
would be terrible if the kids weren't so fabulous!
the 9 cousins all together.....
Lia LOVES Grandma's trampoline!!!!
I love California.....
October is also...
Family Picture time!!!
I love the pictures and think they turned out so cute!
I also LOVE my family so much!
We also had Raichl living with us last year so we
included her in our family picture too....

of our house.
