It's fall ya'll! Except in Vegas it's still a bit hot so it doesn't quite feel like fall weather just yet! ! lol But how are we already to October!! I love this time of year! Here is the weekly recap for October wk 1 fun! Off to school and work we go! Here's our daily selfies! hahaha love these faces!

Piper! We had half day at school and her besties picked her up from school and took her to Chuck E Cheese! How lucky is she! She was in heaven! Had such a fun day! Piper is spotted all over her school! She walked me around the school showing me several places where she was on the wall! Then had me take pics of her pointing at herself on the wall!  Love it! Aren't you the popular one! lol She is honored all over the school for being such an amazing leader! Wahoo Piper! You're amazing! 

On Cashy's half day he didn't get to have fun at Chuck e Cheese...he had a dentist apt! lol We got to see Dr Auntie Joanna! My kids beg to go to the Dentist so this was fun for him! He ended up getting 5 baby teeth pulled! He just does not loose his baby teeth on his own very quickly at all! So Dr felt it was best to get them out to get these permanent teeth to grow in! These baby teeth had huge roots! Dr Auntie is truly the best! Cash was so brave and in the best hands! They both got through it! lol So proud of my boy! He was pretty sore after with huge holes from the giant roots but is doing much better now! He is so happy to have those baby teeth out! You are one tough boy!

They met at Ethan's house got donuts then headed up to Mt Charleston to hike! Sadly Penny's date tore his mcl at the football game the night before! He is the jv and varsity kicker for the Arbor!
