First Fall Weekend

Fall arrived in Texas this weekend!  We are loving the crisp air, the first signs of leaves changing and pulling out some of our warmer wardrobe; however, I think the best thing about it is that we never have to put our flip flops/slippahs away.  For example, Saturday it was 82 so we were in shorts and slippahs but on Sunday it was high 60s, low 70s...this may drive some people crazy but we love that the warm weather doesn't completely disappear!  Plus knowing that it won't get much cooler than the cool days now is a great thing, too!  
We enjoyed the first fall weekend by doing some of the normal things...

swim lessons: 
 Choo-chooing with Daddy
 washing the cars:

and playing at the park. 


We tried a few new things this weekend, too.
We checked out a Greek festival in a fun downtown area of Houston with friends 
 Not so graceful but he made it down and was all smiles!
 This one was an "obstacle course" and he wasn't quite tall enough to get over one of the parts so his friend Elsie pulled him up-it was the cutest thing to watch!
 And on Sunday since the weather was cooler we decided to bake some pumpkin cookies-new recipe (hence the computer on the island) but they were good enough for Rich to bring into work to share with co-workers so we'll use it again!
 Such a good helper!
