Each October, for the past 4 years, we've gone to Tahoe with Adam, Yve, Jude, and Tula Saville. We do the Shirley Falls hike and watch the kids gill scramble, strip, and dip in the freezing water. This year, we made apple pie, roasted cheesey pumpkins whole, and drank hot cocoa. It's the first true cold weather we get so we take full culinary advantage of the season.
Also, you will notice that Zeal got a buzz cut. After months of watching him pull out his own hair so he can suck on the hairs (along with his fingers), we decided it was time to save those follicles and drop that bad habit. His first comment after the buzz was "it's not working." Our intention exactly. Sorry, baby. But at least he looks super cute and not unlike his Opa at that age.

| What a great head shape he turns out to have! |
Then we went on beaver search. And we found lots of evidence: dams, chewed branches, and beaver paths in the tall grass.
