Ok, so I just included this first picture of Kaden because he is so much fun! He is our family toy. At 2 3/4 he is finally able to sit still, say "cheese" and pose for a decent picture. (is that a boy thing?) We're finally getting cute pictures of him. We're not prejudice or anything, people have just told us that Kaden is SOOOO cute!
We all went to the school's fall walk-a-thon. Who cares about the walking though...it's really all about the food. Emmy was dying at the huge caramel apples...she HAD to have one. (she gets excited about anything edible). Ady really wanted one too but knew she couldn't because of her expander-thing inside her mouth. She was a good sport anyway and enjoyed these yummy brownies instead.
Someday I am going to be taking my photography classes and become proficient at taking photos to capture how things really are in all their array of color. This view from the school was amazingly beautiful! The leaves so bright and so varied. This is a lame attempt at getting across the point of how beautiful the Washington Fall is.
Saturday Jeff, Kaden and I went to the pumpkin patch to pick our pumpkins. We won't go into detail of the behavior of our other 3 children who weren't allowed to go on our outing...but I had to get my Fall/Pumpkin pictures and we needed pumpkins. The second we got out of the car we remembered that the only reason you would want to go to the pumpkin patch is for the photos for calendars you would make for October or November for the following year. The pumpkins were still SO green. If they weren't green they were smooshed. If they weren't green or smooshed they were totally lopsided and not good for carving and even if you did get a wowzer of a pumpkin your shoes would be caked with mud. But, at least we got some Fall pictures. We decided that the grocery store is still the best place to get perfectly shaped pumpkins.
It was actually nice to only have one child with us. Kaden loved all the attention.

I think your pictures were great! I would love to take a photography class with you. We probably wouldn't learn anything because we'd be giggling and chatting! Maybe someday....
we just got back from the pumpkin patch today! I just love this time of year....so many fun things to do.
