Its Fall

 Did a little decorating today. I made the wreath-crafty, that's me! What a beautiful day to get a few things done outside! (The ADT endorsement was unfortunate).
 Had a cool first day of school. So much for the sleeveless dress I had bought for her to wear the first day.
 Another girl had a first day too! She is just going to a MDO one day a week.
 She started ballet. I do not think I am ballet Mom material.
A little thing called College Football started back. Ready to join the Million Dollar Band!
 Lots of gameday outfits
 Headed to the first game of the season
 Big sis dressed her in black patten leather shoes, wrong feet of course. The necklace and passie were accessorized by Paxton.
 She is walking about 75% of the time. She does not care for hardwood floor as much as carpet. Its also been a rocky transition to get her to wear shoes.
 She begs for food all the time.
And begs...

Hope everyone is enjoying Fall!

Cincy Trip

 Playing sweetly with her cousin. Does not play this gentle with her sister.



 I know that my children look like us, but every time I look at my nephew I see my brother as a baby.


 We got to shop for my sister's wedding dress while there! It was not quite the "Say ^es to the Dress" experience one might see on television. We were in and out in 45 minutes and there was no crying on any one's part. Still, its beautiful and Tonya is beautiful in it!
 M enjoyed trying on all the "crowns" and head pieces.
 She was super excited to try on flower girl dresses too. I have quite the little shopper on my hands. Too bad for her that this mommy does not share her enthusiasm for shopping.
 Lance and I got to go to the Western & Southern tennis tournament that was going on that week. This is Federer v. Blake.
On a side court we saw Jankovic v. Schiavone which was great. The entire venue is small but this side court was intimate. We were 4 rows up and could hear the conversations they were having with themselves. Neither uses English as a first language though!

 As an added bonus our friends Dawn and Jeff came up from Bham to go to it as well and we got to hang out together that Friday night. We saw Djokovic v. Monfilis that night.
 Got to see my Great Aunt Fay
 We went to Coney Island one day which was a trip down memory lane. I have not been since high school and it brought back so many memories of summers spent here at the world's largest swimming pool.
