Happy Fall Y'all

The Fall decorations are up! I don't think I ever really had time to decorate for Fall. I'm more of a Winter kind of person. But slowly and surely, I will buy a storage box for my Fall collection this year.

Nothing says Fall like pumpkins

More pumpkins

And even more pumpkins!

Going to a Harvest Festival with friends

Pull harder!

Charlotte's first field trip

Haystack with your bestie

Okay, I think that's all the Fall-ish stuff I have for now. And here's a random assortment of life these past two weeks.

 TJ carts catered to children

 Cutie pie is getting big!

 And she's also growing a little belly

I don't know what we did... but I should repeat this activity!

 Belated seven month pic

That was a super belated picture because she's turning EIGHT months next week. Yikes! And this ends Fall Y'all part one.

Cabo San Lucas

I can't believe it's already been two weeks since our big vacation to Cabo. And yes, they are all rumors... Cabo was a super safe place. Especially since we were in our little resort full of tourists. I can't vouch for all the other parts of Mexico though.

Thanks for the safe flight, Alaska Airlines

Dad went too

We had our first official meal at 2pm

First night's theme = Mexico!

 What most of the week looked like

And sometimes there were rugrats in front of me

Every. Single. Day. - this never got old

Evangie had fun too

Taking selfies and watching her brother and sister splash around

My three amigos

She had a little too much to drink...

We seriously didn't move much

Had a "romantic" dinner overseeing the beach and Lover's Point

The great thing about going to an all-inclusive resort is that there's no reason to leave the resort till you have to catch your plane back home. We woke up, had breakfast, hung out by the pool, ordered stuff by the pool, had lunch, hung out by the pool, ordered stuff by the pool, had dinner, showered, and that's pretty much it. We didn't even make it across the street to the market. Oh well. 

Look at that view

The one time we ventured "out" was when we walked down the steps to the beach. Mommy wouldn't let the family leave Cabo without stepping foot on to the sand and taking pictures with Lover's Point in the background.

Dang cruise ship ruined the perfect picture

"Take a picture for Mommy"

While the two older ones were posing, this one was snoozing

They wanted to take pictures the night before we left so they'll remember this place

Buds

 This was the theme the night before we left

Emoji eyes (thanks to Lucas)

They wanted me to take these pictures

The kiddie pool where they spent most of their time

Livin la vida

Adios Cabo!

 Boo - time to go back home

So that was one week of paternity leave well spent! Yes, we missed some school. But whatever. We were making memories - one trip at a time. This trip was surprisingly doable, too.
