Palm Springs

We've been having some nice, warm, So Cal weather. We thought we should take advantage, so the Jarrett clan headed out to Grandma Nancy and Grandpa Walt's timeshare in sunny Palm Springs.

Connor loves the water, but is still the most apprehensive and prefers to stick close to the steps when not in Mommy or Daddy's arms

Dylan, who never even used to like getting his face wet in the bath, is now the fish of the family

For dinner we went to downtown Palm Springs and ate at Ruby's. We had some great burgers to finish off a great day!

Smokey Bear

This past Monday, we went with the moms group from our church to see Smokey Bear and learn about fire safety. We headed up to the beautiful mountain town of Oak Glen where one of the mom's husbands is a firefighter. It was a fun outing, and a beautiful day to be in the mountains!

10/31

This was the first year we actually took the kiddos out trick or treating. Last year we got dressed up and went to an event at big sis Britt's work, but it wasnt really trick or treating. The quads were sooooo excited this year and picked out their own costumes.



Gramma Ginny made Connors costume so he could be a spike dinosaur, just like his beloved toy dinosaur.

Grandma Nancy and Grandpa Walt came over to make the neighborhood rounds with us

Look at all the candy we got!!!

I just love the excitement seen in their faces

After a spin around the neighborhood, we headed over to our church for their annual 10/31 celebration. Had a blast playing all the carnival games and got TONS of candy and jumped to our hearts content in the jump house.

We met up with Auntie Amy, Uncle Isaac and cousin Maddie for a few pics......

saw Uncle Joe, Auntie Crissi, cousins Matthew, Caity and Annie......

and played games, games, games.
