The kids picked out pumpkins for themselves and a baby one for Camille. I'll have to add a picture of their pumpkins later. They "decorated" them with sharpies. :)
While the kids were away, Dan and I vascillated between relaxing and trying to make the most of the time to get a few house projects accomplished. I moved the living room furniture around (this seems to be a trend for me when the kids are away) to make a designated play area for Camille. Now I have a clear view of her in her play kitchen while I'm cooking/cleaning-up in the kitchen. I know it sounds weird, but organizing a cleaning really is relaxing to me! Dan watched football, cleaned up the patio, tidied up the garage and was terribly thrilled to help me move the furniture *again*. ;)
I think Camille is growing, she slept for 14 hours last night! From 4:15pm-6:15am! That was a treat. Dan and I enjoyed a few late night episodes of Parks and Rec on Netflix. We are hooked on that show!
Fall weather hit Florida late last night with a cool front...the high was 87 today. That qualifies as "brisk weather" in these parts, ha! I am in the mood to make something with pumpkin in it....maybe this?

Sarah, I wanted to thank you so much for the super sweet comment love on my blog! So, so sweet!!
As far as my camera, I just in the last few months got a Nikon D7000 (before that I was using my father-in-law's D50, which was getting pretty old!). My favorite lens, that I use about 98% of the time is my 50mm 1.8. Also just in the last few months I began shooting in manual, and that has been huge for me and my photography! I was totally intimidated about manual, so I took a beginning DSLR class at our local community college (I live in Dallas), but through their continuing education department. They had a short 6 or 7 week class, one evening a week, so I was able to go after the kids were in bed so my husband could stay home. That class was so helpful for me. Oh, and I also just recently started shooting in RAW instead of JPEG, and oh. my. word! That has completely improved the way I can edit my photos (I use Photoshop Elements 10). And one last thing about photography, I recently joined this site called www.ClickinMoms.com, and I have learned so much from their site and forums.
Oh wow, this turned out way longer than I thought! So sorry!!
Your family is absolutely perfect and adorable, and I think your blog is fantastic, too!!
