We are all moving into Christmas mode at our house (yaaay!), so I\u2019ve been looking back at the pictures I took over the last few months (AMAZED at all we squeezed into this fall and how fast it went by), and trying to catalog the memories. There were so many moments I didn\u2019t have time to share on the blog or Facebook, so I thought I\u2019d do a wrap-up now. One more glance at the fall fun, then on to immerse ourselves in all things Christmas!   *Fall = baseball for Miles and t-ball for Sawyer (with Jeff coaching Sawyer\u2019s team), so that means four evenings and one Saturday morning at the ballfield each week. Kinda feel like I should have a tent and cot set up there. \u00a0 \u00a0   *Living in a college town is so fun! The boys looove attending the UF Homecoming Parade each year (and getting a day off school for it\u2013woohoo!). Their favorite \u201cfloats\u201d this year were the UF cheerleaders on the fire truck and the Krispy Kreme bus.               *It\u2019s been nice weather here most of the fall, so we took advantage and got OUTSIDE as much as possible. We explored a new splash park with cousins, took LOTS of nature walks, climbed on construction trucks and visited all our favorite playgrounds. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0   *Hurricane Matthew kept us indoors for a few days, but thankfully there was no damage to our house and we didn\u2019t lose power! Just a few branches down outside and some creative entertainment inside\/on the screened porch (Jeff taught Finley how to play some old school Atari games). \u00a0 *Every fall brings lots of celebrations for our little family\u2013Sawyer\u2019s birthday (Bouncin Big party), Jeff\u2019s birthday (Gavin Degraw\/Andy Grammer concert) and my birthday (getaway to St. Pete) all within about\u00a0five weeks time. So. Much. Cake. \ud83d\ude42 \u00a0 \u00a0 *October was packed with fun\u2013Fall Festival at Sawyer\u2019s and Carson\u2019s school, Trunk-or-Treat at Finley\u2019s school and a Halloween dance at Miles\u2019 school (where he wore his real costume because he wasn\u2019t rushing to baseball after!).                 *And, of course it\u2019s not fall without Gator football! \u00a0 *Thanksgiving with my daddy\u2019s side of the family was a great fall finale! \u00a0 Thank you all for following along and sharing this blog with friends\u2013I can\u2019t tell you how happy I am to be doing this, and to be getting so much wonderful feedback! Life is good!
