the cat came back!

we just couldn't stay away....

rock climbing....to be like uncle chris, picking flowers for his mommy, who else? what a lucky mommy i am....

and if it gets smiles like that with a pirate face and sub-due baby then goodbye for now creek, we will see you again tomorrow!

and one cat must always come back to THIS...year after year.....

but first if loving these boots is wrong, i don't wanna be right?

i love how my high maintenance middle baby is looking at my handy dandy biggest baby like "Are we having fun yet?  what exactly are we doing again?"

yes, it seemed cold so i put a blanket underneath so that this angel would be comfy cozy while he swang and laughed so much it hurt!

"hey monkey, these leaves aren't raking themselves.... can you help me?" "i am ON IT mom. oh and i found the neatest bug, LOOK!"

IF you can resist a good leaf jumping afternoon, don't come to my house.... we are having too much fun!!!

i agree sam-i-am, you were way too clean-  a good slide in the mud makes an afternoon outside darn near complete... (oxi-clean, show me what you got!)

don't think the furry boys were not in on the action....always! and they too had to have a bath.  Playn' in leaves, mud, and water is hard work!!! (and deserves mommy & her monkey going to get cookies (sprinkle ones)  and christmas cds after dinner)

warning: if you order christmas cds that read something along the lines of children/santa....it doesn't always mean they are the fun jingles we sing so often but we found some and i will add the two of us had a grande time driving slowly and singing to the top of our lungs- we are PUMPED about the holidays!!
