October Minus Halloween

October is the month that I start to get excited about the holidays that are coming up. Christmas music is playing in our house, we have decorations for Halloween up and we are getting ready to have the leaves change and the winter come. Most people say October is their favorite month. Mine is basically every month from September to December. I love the end of summer, fall and the beginning of winter. This month I am not going to write to much but I am going to put up a lot of pictures of what has been going on in our lives but I am not going to include Halloween or Halloween stuff in this post.(Obviously since it is not even Halloween yet.)

 Tanner and Layla cuddling together. (Very rare to have Layla to snuggle with)

Tomatoes, Carrots and Green Onion from our garden. Plus the LARGE carrot we grew!

This is Layla watching General Conference. 

Layla's ten month Pictures

Grandpa Woolley with the Great Granddaughters the night before his open heart surgery. He had 6 bypasses done. He is doing well now. 

The stroller gang with their tough faces on.

Our attempt to get granddaughter pictures taken but they all would never look at the same time. Here are just a few from that night. 

We had a few days of entertainment at our house with this bee head band. 

Layla's new favorite thing is to watch the laundry spin in the washer and drier. She will crawl over to is and stand right in front of it to watch it go around. 

Sometime we stick Layla in strange places. Like on the shelf in our closet.

We enjoy going swimming with cousins but it tired Layla out. 

Andrew got to hold Layla while she slept and Jacqui( Andrew's fiance) did my hair. 

Layla loves to empty things now and then crawl inside them. 

Annalee and Chad invited us to go to the Edge Homes pumpkin party they were having. Layla got a pumpkin and balloon and loved them both. We got to play with cousins and hear some music and eat food. It was a lot of fun!

Tanner and I went on a date that night to the Hudson Lights concert to see McKay, Keith and Ross sing. We were glad we got to see them and some friends we haven't seen in awhile.

Layla was helping me clean by standing under the step stool. 

Layla loves bath time and not having to wear clothes. She is happy to crawl around with just a diaper on!

Layla is starting to really like having Alec hold her. She would prefer that over having to be on the ground. But with both girls in his arms they mostly trying to grab each others faces.

Tanner was able to go to a BYU football game with some of the young men and leaders in our ward so I decided to can for my first time ever. It was easy once I knew what I was doing and I actually enjoyed it. I am looking forward to canning more fruits and vegetables from our garden next year.!
