It's always fun when Grandma comes, When Grandma comes, hooray!!
My mom came to visit Oct. 8th to the 12th and it was perfect timing!! Isaac LOVED having Grandma here to play with and spoil him. And, it was nice to have some help with the boys and some company since Jared had been working ALL day and HALF of the night (like getting home at 1 am) for weeks in order to make the final tax deadline on October 15th.
We took the boys to the Springs Preserve one afternoon. They had a good time playing in the train and in the sand and water.

Drew....not so sure he likes the sand. What is that on my foot? Why won't it come off???
Interesting.........it is squashy in my hands!!
So, how does it taste???
We took pictures and picked some pumpkins from their pumpkin patch!
Grandma and the boys
Isaac making his choices...........
How did he do??? Slightly better than last year. He still managed to pick some pretty scared up pumpkins with lots of....hhmmmm...character. And despite my many attempts to pick other less interesting pumpkins; we still ended up with these. But at least they aren't still green (note there were actually no green pumpkins to pick from this year; thus I can only say slightly better than last year).
Isaac playing in the bounce house.
The GIANT pumpkin 
Grandma bought Isaac this scooter! He loves it! It was really easy for Isaac to talk her into it while we were at the store getting Drew's present for his upcoming birthday. However, that was what I was TRYING to bribe him with while potty training......so now what???
The boys playing outside!!
Grandma also taught Drew how to go down the stairs backwards!! YEAH!! Although he really isn't totally trustworthy so we still have to have the baby gates up...but maybe soon.And finally on an unrelated note I would like to share my latest amateur photograph. I have titled this work: Death and Taxes 
Let me set the scene for you.....It is October 15th and Jared actually got home from work while it was still light (5:15pm). We eat dinner together, get the kids to bed early (7:15 pm) and I am quickly finishing the dishes so we can watch the new movies I just rented.....and here is what I find on the couch SOUND ASLEEP (like DEAD to the world asleep) at 7:30pm. So, I turn off the lights and head upstairs to fold laundry! BUMMER! Maybe tomorrow (the 16th) I will get some company.
P.S. You can also view a similar work entitled: Death, Taxes and Baby here (at the end of the post).

Hey guys! Loved the photos- I still can't belive Drew man is walking all over. That's awesome. Issac looks so grownup. Crazy, where does the time go? Has Jared recovered?
hahahahahah!! I have to laugh at cute little Isaac's hat. It's perched right on top his head, like an old farmer. That's how Taylor's grandpa wears his hat too.
I'm glad Isaac picks the funny looking pumpkins... somebody has to give them a little love right?
I hope Jared is recovering well, I can't even imagine working past 5, 1 am would KILL me.
Your boys both look so cute and grown up. I love Isaac's baseball cap. It looks like such nice weather there- even the "cold" day at the pumpkin patch. HMMM, I could definitely consider moving to Vegas. I love the picture of Isaac on the scooter and Drew with the walker, so fun! We miss you guys and wish that you lived closer, maybe we can come and visit sometime (probably in 5 years, but know that I would love it to be sooner!) I hope that Jared has recovered from tax season, I can totally relate to falling asleep on the couch at 7:30!
Oh... that picture from last years post of the kids at playgroup made me a little sad! So weird to think that this time last year you guys were here and we were playing! We miss you guys!
The boys are just getting so big and cuter every time you post! Tell Isaac hi from Hunter!
