It's Autumn Time

I haven't posted in a little while (but Christmas projects took some precedence), and I know everyone is waiting with baited breath for the next tutorial post... but I thought I'd take a little break and share some snap shots of what we've been up to this glorious fall.


We got to visit this beautiful place (the Palasades) with C's sister and her family. We stayed in a cute little cabin and roasted marshmallows and drank hot chocolate.


We took some walks... on which there were too many sticks to choose from. Will would find one and hold on to it until he traded up to a better one. Unlimited sticks and dirt? Heaven.


We walked around the shore


And threw rocks into the lake.


Will's birthday morning! Just look at that sweet sleepy face!


Birthday pancakes. Nummy nummy.


I can't believe he's 2. And a disclaimer on the cake... (though I had delusions of grandeur) it was a whip-it-up situation. But it was delish!


Just look at that cutie! I can't get enough of him.


And in this one you can see his one dimple.


He's getting to be quite a pro at unwrapping gifts.


The Buzz was pretty exciting (as was the Woody doll, just didn't get pictures of that part).


And he LOVES fish. Grandma got it just right.

The next pictures are of us at Staheli Farms in St. George. It's a pumpkin patch with lots of other activities.

The treehouse with cousin "Nor"


This almost got ugly... but they worked it out. Driving the truck with cousin "Vi"


Fun bouncy bubble with daddy.


The swings were the favorite part. Go figure.


And the whole way there he was saying "sheep!" I don't know where he got the idea that there were sheep at the farm, but somehow he knew! He was very excited until it came time for daddy to put him down and pet them... that never happened.

Well, the last month has been busy busy busy, as only October can get in our family. Between seven birthdays, three anniversaries, one holiday and lots of parties... we survived it yet again. And somehow I did get all of my Christmas projects done for this year. Now bring on Thanksgiving, moving, Christmas and having a baby! :)

Bonus pictures! (Some with me actually in them)

Here are a couple pics of the family this summer in Pennsylvania, before the baby bump was too big.
