Most days after Landon and Cody's naps, we go for a walk around the neighborhood. Landon loves picking up all the leaves. He'll grab one and show me and say, "Neaf, neaf", until I say, "Yes, leaf. Lllllllll eaf." All the L's are because I'm really trying to get him to say things correctly. He's becoming obsessed with leaves and likes to bring them into the house. Yeah! Dead leaves on my floor and counters! What mother wouldn't love that. Such festive decorations.
(If you can't tell what he's doing, he's throwing a stick/leaf in the air. The excitement!!)
Fall is also the time when all the holidays begin!! Here in New Mexico, the balloon fiesta starts off the season. I swear every single year, when the balloon fiesta starts, it gets cold! It's the official beginning of fall. I didn't think anything of it until I took the boys to John's work. They have a breakfast on the special shapes day of the fiesta. The smell of breakfast burritos in the air and the chill got me so excited for fall to be here. Then, after the balloons had moved on, we started to leave. But what's that across the way? The beaver balloon had just landed!! We hopped out of the car and Landon got to stomp on the balloon with all the other kids to get the air out. The balloon crew was incredibly sweet. I think the beaver balloon will now always hold a special place in our hearts.
(These balloons were so close to eachother and no, my hair isn't that staticky. It's a dead tree behind me.)
I hope everyone else is enjoying their fall. I know I am and I'm looking forward to all the holidays!! Maybe this year I'll actually decorate since I never do. HAPPY AUTUMN!

Just One Of Those Weeks
This is how he spends a lot of time. Lining up his blocks. He'll line up a lot of things, rocks, books, whatever you got! Is this normal? He's almost OCD about some things!

80th B-day/Reunion
They both enjoyed being at the beach. After the beach, we'd let them play in a little blow-up pool my Aunt and Uncle got for them! So sweet! Landon could have stayed out there all day long. Him and Riley had a great time and hopefully Landon learned how to share from Riley! Thanks Scot and Becca for the AMAZING pictures you guys took.
Asher and Landon are on their way to being best buds!!!
(My Uncle Ron is holding Cody. Asher is being held by my brother Scot)
The surprise was the best part. My parents had gone down to pick up my Grandma and Granddad from Melbourne. My Granddad was not aware that my whole entire family had flown in! So we got sent up to a room and we decided that one by one, families would come out and surprise my Granddad. Let's just say that when you stick all of us in one room together, there's cameras, and there's no escape, you have some really good laughs! John and I were the first family out since we thought our cover had been blown.

Landon enjoyed all the balloons and would not put them down! He was so excited for them to finally get blown up!

The men in my life!

On Sunday, we took family pictures. It didn't go too badly actually! Here were some pictures from it.
This is all the family that came. My Grandparents, their 2 daughters and their whole family (which was mostly us) and my Granddad's sister and husband.

All the cousins

All my parents' grandkids

I just thought this was the sweetest picture of my grandparents!!

And then our family pictures
