Ike and Mom

My sisters and I (plus kids) all went to Mom's house to take pictures with all the fall colored landscaping. Well, there's a swingset, sandbox, and slide so you can imagine what a three-year-old would rather do than take pictures. Oh, well.

Hay Ride

October Tradition

Every year we go to the same pumpkin patch, go on hay ride, and pet the farm animals. After we finish we go get huckleberry ice cream (what's the point of a tradition if it doesn't involve ice cream?) and shop the country store. When we get home we carve our pumpkins and roast the seeds. It's my favorite time of year!

Baby it's Cold Outside

Always on the go

It's been really hard to get Isaac to sit still for a picture so I snapped this one and that's about all he would tolerate. After all, three-year-olds have lots to do in a day and so many new things to try out. Here he is trying out stuffing stuff down his shirt . . .

Taste Tester

Isaac and I made a carrot cake this afternoon. He really liked doing the sprinkles and taste-testing the batter. Cooking is so much mroe fun when you have a little helper! Anyway, he was a complete mess afterwards so I carried him to the tub right afterwards where we scrubbed off frosting and sprinkles.
