October, one of my favorite months

I do love October. I love decorating for Halloween. I love that the temp outside finally starts to drop to humane levels. October is the quiet before the holiday whirl that is coming so fast. Fall colors are everywhere, except of course on our trees here. We have to look at pictures to enjoy that part of fall. Nonetheless, I love the autumn shades mixed with the Halloween hues. The kids are talking about what they want to be for Halloween and we will be planning trips to the dunes very soon. Apples are coming, and while they are just as messy to can, will be a welcome change from peaches and pears. Tomatoes are still coming, but are winding down for us. 

Jade and Jeff will be celebrating 9 years together. I can't believe how fast time goes. Our little princess Pey Pey (Lauren Pearl) will be 3 and she's making the terrible 2's look good. 3's are always so much worse. I personally think it's because at 2 they really don't know and are learning what is okay and what is not. At 3 they mostly know and do it anyway. Little stinkers. 

Just got back from Safford with Summer and Rylee. Had fun being with Jade all day even though she was working. Summer got hair done, I got human toes and my eyebrows are once again separated. All in all a good day. Jaxon got his cast on (blue), and Rylee got a manicure complete with polka dots on her nail polish. Jade is always so good to us. We had dinner out and set off for home. Thanks for a fun day Miss Jade. 

I always enjoy these little road trips because whoever goes with me is a captive audience for a couple of hours. We get to talk and really visit and I love that time. Thanks for a great visit Summer and Rylee. Glad we found the DS. Right where we left it, right Rylee?

I need a road trip, a day trip, HELL, ANY TRIP...other than a trip to crazy which is where I mostly reside these days. I really need more sleep and to duplicate myself, but human toes and nice eyebrows (oh and straight hair) would all be nice too!

Glad you guys had fun and got to see the Jarvis'!!!!! You absolutely deserve a day off having fun after all of the canning help you have been up to!
