big news X2!!!

I found out a few days ago that my little sister is engaged! Hooray, Sarah! Apparently when they went to Disney World for a week (lucky!!!) Greg proposed with a very pretty 1/2 carat diamond ring. I was a suprised, but very happy for both of them! Congratulations, Sarah and Greg!!!! :-D

Also, on Thanksgiving, Bob's sister Angie announced that they are having baby #3 in May! Wow! I know they are looking forward to the new addition to their family. That's really something to be thankful for! Congratulations, Angie and Timothy!!!! :-D

Fall is fun!

Yesterday we raked all the leaves off the driveway into a pile. Today the whole driveway was covered again so I raked all the new leaves into the same pile...

I swear he was having fun when I was putting him in the leaves but it doesn't look like it in this picture. He would plop down into them and then wriggle around to make them crunch crunch crunch!
He was a very happy little leaf boy. He kept picking up the leaves and throwing them into the air. I couldn't seem to get an action shot, just the result. The cute smiling laughing face.

Very busy boy...

After making a few adjustments Oliver got to work...

mowing the lawn! Isn't he the cutest little helper EVER?!?!

Oh Mother, why are you posting this?!?!

Tis the season to be...

SICK! I got a cold. I guess it's not a terribly bad one since I just started getting symptoms on Saturday and I'm already almost better. Then again I could attribute it to the mango, Echinacea tea, this cold medicine and lots of fluids. Oh yeah, and 3 boxes of Kleenex. bleh.
