Jackson and Ellee drawing pumpkin faces that they wanted Daddy-O to carve.

Daddy-O drawing some choices for Jackson and Ellee to choose from.

Cousins

We all got together at Nana and Papa's for Auntie Naomi's 35th Birthday! This is the only picture I got, not even one of the Birthday Girl! It sure is a cute one though! Happy Birthday Naomi!

Nap Times!

Seriously people....I can't make this stuff up!

I went in to check on Ellee during naptime and this is what I found. I can't imagine falling asleep like that. I did move her to her bed and she didn't even notice.

And this is what I found today during nap time!

The day before I set up Jacksons's little tent in his room so he could sleep in it that night. I think this was Ellee's version of a tent.

I decided to leave Ellee in her clothes hamper sleeping instead of putting her in her crib. Naptime would have been over for sure!

My Little Helper

Jackson helped me bake pumpkin/butternut squash bread. He did a great job stirring! I thought the sweat band was a nice touch on his part. The bread turned out really yummy and my kids don't even realize their eating squash!

What a great little guy I have.....I am so blessed!

Costumes

Iron Man, Princess, Bumblebee and Nemo

The Princess and the Transformer

Grandpa and Grandma McGowan with all their Grandkids...Kennedy was not happy and Ellee wouldn't sit still. One of these days we'll get a good shot of them all together!

Pumpkin Patch

This year we decided to venture out to The Scholz Family Pumpkin Patch with the Diseths! We had a great time!

Happy Fall!

Soccer Monsters

Jackson's first soccer game as a Soccer Monster. I think he's the only 4 year old on the team. All the other kids are 5 and 6. He fit right in with the rest of the crew chasing the ball!

Cousins

Hilary & Ellee

Jackson and Sophia don't get to see eachother that often this year, so during conference week we made sure to get together with our cousins for a playdate. Sophia goes to Kindergarten opposite the days I work. I have a feeling it's only going to get more complicated when Jackson starts Kindergarten next year. Jackson and Ellee love playing with their cousins!

Fall in Ellensburg

I think this is a beautiful street during the fall! It was one of my favorite streets in my college town. Every year my good friend Leah takes her boys here and takes their pictures. This year we were able to join them.

Jackson, Crue and Tate

Ellee likes to do whatever Big Brother does!
