 (photos by my dad)

I can't believe it's autumn,
it's refreshing and fun,
I love the fresh, crisp chill in the early morning air,
the colors
and
 how everything changes,
did you ever notice how people's personalities change with the seasons as well?

Time has been just a flying by..... really!
I had my 46th birthday this month, which was such a nice way to feel loved and special.
Lynzie's birthday is next....
she'll be 12 and in the Young Women's program at church!

she starts back on school track tomorrow.

We enjoyed the Brigham City Temple Dedication last week
and walking through the temple a couple of weeks before that...
what a neat experience for the kids.
speaking of...
the kids are doing great,
I love how Candice and Caitlyn are best buddies,
they do everything together,
they are so close in age and are experiencing the same things right now,
it's fun for them to go through it together!
they have started going to a personal trainer,
(who.... was my 1st mission companion, they love her dearly,
 and I can totally understand why they do, cuz way back when, I did too!)
they are always talking about boys, and their future husbands,
and I'm finding myself praying for them and their future husbands....

Life is just good right now,
it's not perfect, but good...
I love having all my kids at home,
I love how they interact with each other
(except when Spencer and Lynzie fight... but, that too shall pass!)

I can't believe the holidays are upon us,
once you start putting up Halloween decorations it's all down hill from there,
before you know it, Christmas will be here in just a few minutes!
which doesn't seem possible cuz it's still so fresh in my minds eye from last year.

My neighborhood sure looks cute with all it's witches and goblins though.
and
there is nothing like the mountains full of color!
it's breathtaking.

Oh my goodness! I missed your birthday. Happy very late birthday. September was a hard crazy busy month for me. Anyway I just wanted to say I'm glad you all are doing great. I miss the changing leaves, and beautiful fall colors that you get up north. I love fall!
