Yep it's fall

So, here we are trying to experience fall in spite of the horribly hot days we have been having. It was so hot the day we went to the pumpkin patch that we only stayed for about 15 minutes to take a few pictures before heading home to our cool air conditioned home. I really don't know how much longer I can handle living in SoCal. What I wouldn't do for some rain and cold weather! On a more positive note...we did have a great time carving pumpkins with our good friends Hannah and Mark. However, we learned that carving them up a week before Halloween is just too soon. By Halloween they were mush.

Dress-up Time

Last week we were at home playing and Presley went into her room and pointed up at her fairy costume. It was the first time she has ever tried to pick out her own clothes. She usually runs from me when I try to get her dressed. She wore it all evening and was very proud of herself. I had to take pictures.

We love the beach!

Living 5 miles from the beach definitely has its benefits. We spent a lot of time there this summer. Presley is at such a fun age for it. Her favorite thing to do is catch sand crabs or as she calls them "crabbies."

Wanna Weed Stoweys?

Presley absolutely loves story time, especially with her daddy because he makes the bestest sound effects and brings every story to life. She helps him too with her animated noises and enthusiasm. We love playing around on her big girl bed...wrestling, jumping, and practicing her somersaults. We may have a future gymnast on our hands.

Fun With Daddy

Last week we spent an evening down at salt creek beach with some friends. It was a beautiful evening, but not quite warm enough for Mark and Caleb to attach the waves and show all those surfers who rule the beach. Truthfully I think Mark would rather play with his little girl any day.

John Mayer in Concert...Amazing!

Last week I drove down to San Diego to catch a John Mayer concert with my buddy Kristen. It was beyond amazing. He is so great live and arguably the best guitar play on the planet. Thanks, Kris for the tickets and the bottle of wine you were able to sneak in. You sure know how to show a girl a good time. We'll have to do it again next year.
