Signs of fall

The boy and I took a nature walk this morning. These are some of the signs of fall we found. He is at the age where he ONLY wants to be outside. He brings me his shoes and fusses until we go outside. We have been getting a lot of fresh air.

Capital

We took Russell's folks to the capital building. His mother has made a goal to try to visit as many capitals as possible.

While there, Eva Longoria was shooting a public service announcement......We left lbefore they started filming because Rylan would not be "quiet on the set". He loved hearing his echo!!! Before they had roped off the area where they were filming Rylan started messing with the camera....oopps!

Poison Control

Poison Control knows me by first name... Rylan, despite my attempts to keep him in a bubble, has gotten a hold of some non-consumables. Case in point. Ink Jet Cartridge.... Turns out, they are not toxic and the damage is mostly cosmetic. On the up side, the blue lips do compliment his eyes.

Hindu Temple

We toured a Hindu temple. It was a few days after Dewali (the festival of lights). They had huge peacocks (India's national bird) wandering the property and a traditional rice and grain mosaic on the ground.

Halloween Night

Halloween night was a lot of fun!! A lot of our neighbors had decked their houses out with some cool, not to mention spooky decor!! Rylan loved all the lights, goblins, ghosts, and pumpkins!! The best was Zultan- the creepy talking head from the movie BIG. Rylan got such a kick out of it and a great fortune!!! While he did not trick or treat, he enjoyed seeing the other children and being outside!! The weather was perfect which was weird.....CO Halloweens were freezing and AZ Halloweens were hot!
