Leaves and Laughs

Saturday afternoon we spent some time outside enjoying the really nice weather. We went on a walk to Liberty Park to play and to check out the changing leaves. Gavin loved it, we got to go the playground where we don't go very often and he kept saying, "Dad, this is the best playground I ever seen." or "Wow, this is the best slide I ever seen." Lately he has been busting out all new phrases that just make us laugh. Henry is also a big boy with the new tray attached to the stroller, so he is super happy to go walking where ever we want to go. We also decided that is would be fun to take some fall leaf pictures. Hopefully this was not a preview of how our family pictures will go in a month. We couldn't get both of them to look at the same time and could hardly get them to be at all still for even as second, they were so excited to be surrounded by the leaves. I included a few of the not so perfect shots so you can really get a feel for the pandemonium that we have lately.

We also painted Halloween pumpkins this week to get ready for Wednesday. Nothing like hanging out in your underwear.

This pumpkin idea looked a lot cute in the magazine, oh well, typical for my craft pursuits.

Henry wasn't really interested in painting, but loves to be tickled by Dad.

This shot is from a few weeks back, but I love it. What a cute kid I have!
