Golden 31....

C turned 31 on the 31st! Talk about a golden birthday - that's as golden as they come. Despite having to put in a full day of work, we did our best to make his special day as golden as possible!

Brunch at the Root Cellar...

Ruby in C's office enjoying his balloons...

A party in his office! 31 balloons, 31 cans of Dr Pepper, 31 mini Twix bars. Thanks LeAnn and Ralph!

Jess has mastered Ruby's scowl...

Cake in the shape of Texas!

Halloween/C's birthday party at Russ and Chow's....always a highlight and one of our favorite traditions.

First Halloween.....

Farmers and their pumpkin...

A pumpkin patch and a 9 month old....

Oooops. We missed taking Ruby's official 9 month pictures. We did, however, go to a great little local pumpkin patch around that time and snapped some fun festive pictures.

Ruby at 9 months:
- Our petite little girl weighed in at 17 pounds and was around 27 inches long. CUTENESS.
- Favorite activity: turning book pages at lighting speed
- Favorite outfit: Jeggings (okay...maybe that's more MY favorite for her than her own.)
