Good night- gobble gobble!

Walking through fall

Although my favorite season is summer, I have to admit this is the nicest fall weather I can remember here.   It's so nice to walk through the fall colors of bright orange and yellows in November - without a coat.  This won't last much longer.

Why is walking on leaves so fun?  Is it the crunch?

Playing with pumpkins from the garden.




 


Rolling in the leaves.




And much later that day.......

 




Good night!

Still Summertime in AZ

It's still summertime in October.

 At our community pool with Kevin's kids.

Popsicles on the patio.

Kevin's kids meet Ryan & Ashley's new baby.

With the arrival of Suzy's family - all 7 grandkids together.

All the kids at the zoo.

 Baby's first zoo visit.

 Picnic at the zoo park.

 Ryan's doing a great job as a new dad.

Baby B with Aunt Suzy.

Feeding the ducks is always fun.  The good news is: no one fell in.

Nine days old!

In Tucson, here's baby B - only 9 days old.

 He's so tiny and cute.  Not sure who he looks like yet.   Any guesses?
 He slept most of the time we were visiting yesterday.
What a good baby!

This is not a scream - this is just a big yawn!  
Looking forward to seeing more of him this week
and all the fun times ahead!

  

Sleeping through all the camera flashes. 
Nothing bothers this little guy.

 

The proud parents!  Everyone is doing great!

Announcing the arrival of ....

Ryan and Ashley's baby boy -

Bradley Ryan Judd!



Born September 20 - 6:01 PM - 7.7 pounds!

Here's the cute family of 3 arriving home.
Let the fun begin!





Notice the dark  hair. 
Ryan also had dark hair when he was born, but it soon turned blond. 




Happy and contented baby at home!  What a lucky little guy!

Congrats to Ryan and Ashley!  Nicely done!

Cupcakes for Breakfast

Why do kids love to stay over at Yaya's house?

 

Cupcakes for breakfast and . . .


Angry Birds!!






Then we all wash the car.


 
 Getting the detailing here.

 After working so hard, it's Pool Time!

Birthday Girl - Bethany is now 4 years old!

 


 

And a few pics of the Utah kids too.

This is why they call them toddlers....

Always sad to see the summer go.

What's Happening?

What's happening in Tucson?


Ryan and Ashley have been busy getting ready for arrival of baby boy.  Only about a month to go now!!
Note: His name will NOT be Axel.

 

 Went out to lunch with them and had some tasty Mexican food.  After that got my DPT shot from Ashley and she even gave me a  CVS bandaid.  : ) 


Always lots going on at Kevin and Caroline's house - swimming, dinner, games.
Collin knows how to play chess now.  It seems just yesterday that Uno was the game of choice.

The new game for the whole family is "Rock Band" - and here they are rockin' out!  So cute to hear the 2 year old sing:  We will, we will Rock You!! 
 
 

Kevin on guitar.  He always wins.  In case his day job doesn't work out, he can always rely on this amazing skill.

Not in Tucson - but here's Quinn with cute bathtub hair style.  The things kids have to put up with at Yaya's house!
