More Fall Portraits


































If it isn't obvious, I really like getting the boys' pictures taken. What can I say, they're just so photogenic. These were taken by a family friend of ours, Cliff Ritchey.

The Writing on the Wall

A few weeks ago, I caught Ty grafitti-ing on my bedroom wall. After I scolded him he said, "I'm sorry, Mommy. I did it over there too." And my other wall looked like this...

I asked him if he did it anywhere else and he took me to his room where he had colored on his closet door, bed and toybox. Luckily, all this was done in a washable crayon, so it turned out not to be too big of a deal. At least he fessed up to it...


Trick or Treat


This year I let Ty pick out his costume, and he chose Thomas the Train.

Dallas was a spider, and he was so cute crawling around with his little spider legs at his sides.



Dallas' first taste of chocolate. He loved it! But he loves about anything as long as someone is feeding him.

Pumpkinliner

10/24/2010We took the boys on this train in Connersville with Grandma and Grandpa.



The train went from the station to a "pumpkin patch" (which, to be entirely honest, left quite a bit to be desired) where we took a hayride and picked out pumkins.



Here's usually what happens when I try to get both boys to hold still for a picture.
Second attempt...
Overall, we had a great time and this was definitely worth the drive. After months of drought, it decided to rain on this particular day. I said a little prayer on the way there that we would have a dry window just long enough for us to go on the hayride to and from the pumpkin patch. (We brought umbrellas, but just imagine trying to simultaneously wrangle an umbrella and a 9 month old...I wasn't looking forward to it.) And my prayer was answered!! We didn't get rained on at all until we got off the train and were headed to the car! Ty had a great time riding the train. We're going back in December for the Polar Express ride and are really looking forward to it!
