Gotta love October

Fall is here. I love it. One day it's warm and sunny, still feeling like summer won't ever leave. The next day we're pulling out the long sleeves and coats.

This is one of those nice sunny days. Really not warm enough for swim trunks and water balloons, but of course my boys thought so.
Ready for launching.
After getting wet, I think Cole agrees with Mom. It's not so warm and this isn't so fun anymore.

And here's one of those cooler days. The boys were excited to rake leaves from our tree in the backyard.
They convince Jada that it's fun to get in the leaf pile and play while they throw leaves.

Up they go and down they come.....
...all on Jada's head! She doesn't like this game anymore.
And I don't either. Do you know how long it took me to get all those little pieces of leaves out of her hair? Quinn's trying to "dust" her off, but those leaves are going nowhere. Those darling little curls hold everything!
Happy October!

Haha! Wow, never thought about stuff getting caught in Jada's hair! Glad you're going through it first so you can give me tips. :)

Hugs and kisses to all those cute little kiddos!

Ellyana's hair is like a "leaf magnet"...running the bath water over it for a long time seems to help. Bought a hat for winter from Curly Zebra...I've been trying to have her wear that when playing in the leaves...its easier to clean up!
Much love to you & yours! Cherise :)

Cute pics! I know what you mean about the velcro hair :-) Hope and Caleb were throwing sand at eachother and it got in her hair. Not a fun bath experience :-)
