First Day of Fall

We finished editing the video from this past Wednesday - of our adventure at Krispy Kreme.  Special thanks to that amazing doughnut shop - we had an exciting voyage!  I just love that Mommy and Madison are in this video - it adds a lot of fun to the workday to be able to see the entire crew there.

We got home earlier today, which was great because we could get some rest.  Mommy's condition has worsened to the point that she didn't make it the office at all.  No matter:  we were able to get what we needed done, and Mommy was able to get some rest.  In the meantime, Madison has been coloring and creating pictures with crayons.  Lately, she's been drawing a tent in the wilderness, nearby a campfire.  I'm not entirely sure where she gets this imagery from, but the weather is sort of fun to do that kind of thing in the back yard.  I don't think we'll set up a campfire, but perhaps a tent in the back yard might be fun.  Although I don't think we'll actually spend the night in it!

Today is the first day of Fall, which is pretty much our favorite season.  Already, we've begun watching our "October-themed movies," which is all part of some research Daddy is doing for the newest devotional.  Another reason for watching the movies earlier is our lack of time later on in the month - it seems we've got a lot going on in October.  We're going to Disney, of course - Madison still doesn't know that yet.  Also, Mommy recently picked up some "Disney on Ice" tickets for Friday, October 12th.  That'll be a lot of fun, as always.  One night we'll have our traditional pumpkin-carving party as well - so you can see the nights start filling up quickly.  Then, it'll be the Christmas season, where we'll be watching Christmas movies and going to do Christmas-themed things.  One set of tickets we bought at a discount was to a Cirque du Soleil show the day after Thanksgiving.  That's going to be fun as always - Madison loved the show last time they came around.

So today is the beginning of the fun season, the time of year where things start getting very busy, and filled with excitement.  Already, this morning Daddy watched the leaves spiral and twist as they fell across the road like a curtain.  It's such a pretty time of year!
