Moments like these...

Caught this quiet moment between Eric and Ethan - a quick shoe-tying lesson in the midst of Christmas Lights and bike riding. Makes me love both of them even more.

What are YOU thankful for?

(Turn of the music by pushing pause way down at the bottom.)

Did I tell you that...

Ty has a girlfriend and her name is Addi and when Eric says to Ty "Do you love Daddy?" he says "NO! I wuv Addi!"

And....

We all got to be in the Gilbert Days Parade last Saturday and the boys LOVED it - although I'm not sure that in the years to come they will agree to wearing I LOVE GILBERT tees.

And...

Did I mention that we are having PERFECT fall weather - with just enough cloud to cast the coolest shadows - the kind where you say goodbye to the sun to just say hello again.

A Perfect Fall Day

We are all outside now - waiting for Eric to get home from a long week of driving. The boys are all riding around on something with wheels {they don't discriminate} and I'm glad it is Friday. A perfect Fall Friday to be exact. We have a couple of things to look forward to tonight but mostly I'll just be glad when we are all together. Eric really does make everything more fun.

Meant to post these but....

I'm not so good at reporting on Holidays. So here's the low-down on our HALLOWEEN fanfare (PS It's one of our favorite holidays and so we try to really do it up around here.)

The Wallin-Daniels Annual Halloween Party was a smashing success - thanks to the Wallins who know how to throw a REAL party. Ryan's band, (who's name escapes me at the moment) was really good - and I hear they like to play for Weddings and Bar-Mitzvahs in case you're looking. {Almost} Everyone came in costume and the mechanical bull was a nice touch. Lots asked how we were going to out-do ourselves next year - short answer is - stay tuned - we've already started planning Halloween 2010.

Here are some of the highlights (thanks to Rob Konieczny for walking around all night and capturing the action)

Did I mention that my bro and his FIANCE came down to party with us? We had a blast with them!

Be Where Your Feet Are

I loved that quote... just thought I'd share - I'm trying really hard to live it.

P.S. Happy November!
