Brace yourself. . . Here are a few more pictures!

Brayton looks very concerned. . . very!

A little fall motorcycle ride for the boys. We love our time in the hills just soaking up fresh air and family.
Our fluffy pumpkin and scary dragon!
Boo at the Zoo with Daddy.
A little mini-dragon and Minnie to start my day off right!
Making sure everything is alright.
The rare family shot at Boo at the Zoo.
Yes. . . it would be hard to love her more!
This is where you should be to watch mommy and daddy cook breakfast. Best seats in the house!
Nobody loves Bratyon more than his brother. . . I mean this for real!!! He loves him beyond words and can hardly pass him without stopping for a kiss. Makes my heart smile everyday!
Baby B!


Between the beautiful scenery and my three energenic babies I'm not sure how I even busted out the camera but I did! The baby is 4 months now and the twins have rolled into being two year olds like seasoned pros! Their vocabulary exploded overnight and with so much to do lately it's been a challenge keeping it all on record! However, as you can see we have made our ritual efforts in getting to anything and everything relating to fall! My favorite time of year will soon be over ,so in the mean time, I must run and soak it all up!

Pumpkin Patch Season!


My amazing trio!

We may have chickens in our yard all the time but these are NEW chickens!

They refused to cuddle up with this man!


Staring at the pigs was a full time job. Bodie could not get over what a mess they were making!

There is something different about this man but Bodie couldn't put his finger on it.

Sneaking a peek at Wyatt's pony ride.

Bodie administering one heartly pellet at a time.


Tis' my favorite time of year again friends! Orange, gold, and autumn tones leaves, yummy food, crisp air, and breath taking scenery. I seriously love fall!!! With that said, we make every effort to hit any acitivity fall related. Pumpkin Patches are my favorite places to start this generous helping of fall fun. The kids have went on hay rides, jumped in jumpy houses, rode on tractors, stared at the mysterious scarecrow men, flew high on swings, and have man handled camels, goats, llamas, sheep, and even a piggy or two! Whew! We aren't even done yet! So sit back and enjoy as we throw more fall pictures at you than you can shake a stick at!

See Spot Walk!

I'm gonna Git Chu!
Brayton
On our walk for the Humane Society
So many dogs to watch!
Annelise and Bodie supporting Brayton on his big banking day!
First of all, let's start by wishing Daddy a Happy Birthday!!!! Happy Birthday Daddy!!!!!!!! Now shshhhhhhhhhh. . . . since he's out of town our real celebration will be next week when he's home so we will save our enthusiasm for then!

While Daddy's been working hard on the Oregon Coast. . . yeah, doesn't sound like work to us either :). . . . we have been busy! On Friday we opened Brayton's first savings account. He is now a member of a credit union and building his college fund! We really do believe that this a great moment for him. Learning about finances and the importance of saving can never be taught early enough! So rest assured, if you sent him a "Welcome to this world" check, he saved it! We even got it done before the checks expired which is not something we can say about the twins! Oooops!
Today we joined the See Spot Walk event in support of our local Humane Shelter. The kids had a great time tooling down the streets with thousands of dogs while the loud speekers played "Who let the dogs out?" We loved all the dogs in costume and I may be crazy but we have decided that animal lovers are the best people ever! What a great crowd and an amzing group of dogs as well. After the walk we ate our lunch in the park away from the animals but it gave my own little animals a place to run. We waltzed thru the rose garden and played a mean game of "I'm gonna git' chu!" The drizzling rain out an end to our adventure but we still had a great day. I can't tell you how many times I have looked at them lately and thought they had grown since morning. It makes days with a little something special in them even more so. What fun they are at this age!
Happy Birthday Daddy. . . We love you to Pluto Planet!
