Pumpkin Carving

Carving pumpkins was interesting.. Brinley liked touching the insides, but she also wanted to eat it. So we had to try to get her to join in the fun without eatingthe yummy insides of our pumkins. But once we had them carved, we lit them and turned out all the lights. All we heard the whole time they were glowing was "oh wow" (her favorite saying)..

Fall Leaves

Darren was raking all of the leaves out of our yard and created a hugepile in the backyard. Since it was such a nice day, Brinley and I went out to join him.. Next thing we know Brinley is headed for the leaf pile. So we set her in there and she was entertained for a while.. She wasn't very happy when we took her out.

Brinley's 1st Birthday

Wow, how time flies!! Brinley turned one in October. I can't believe my little girl is one.. She had so much fun opening presents and digging into her cake. It was the first time she has really experienced presents and knew what to do. So fun!!
