Noah playing in the leaves outside the Library on very hot fall afternoon. Despite the heat we used our imaginations to pretend it was a crisp fall day in New England. It's so strange to me that leaves still change color and the grass turns from brown to green in some of the warmest months in Southern California.I miss New England fall's the most out of any time of year but this afternoon I found such bliss just being with the boys.

The boys fighting off colds on a beautiful day at the beach! Just before this photo was taken we saw a pod of dolphins swim slowly by in the rolling waves of the pacific. While we were at the beach my friend had our house cleaned, it was absolutely wonderful to come home to a spotless house. 

Oh my little buddies! How can these two cute little angels make me so happy and so tired all at the same time? Nate's smile kills me in this one, he looks so much like his daddy.

And finally a fun little video of our guys playing with balloons. Thank you God for balloons!
