Catching up

I tried to update this blog a couple of times now, but the pictures didn't load, so I got bored and walked away. Now the pictures load up, but I get this weird hyperlink type font...oh well. We had fun taking Josh trick or treating. He was a monkey this year.This is our old street. We decided to go to some of the old neighbors since townhouses means more houses in less walking time. Problem was, most of our old neighbors were not home! So they did not get to see Josh all grown up. Oh well...there is always next year.



I bought these leaf bags at Target for a buck....and we decorated our front porch with our pumpkins we got from the pumpkin patch. Very festive!
We went over to Grandma's house after some trick or treating and were surprised to see Aunt Holly and Lily there. Then a little later, Uncle David and Aunt Teri showed up with Rebecca, Arianna, and Jessica. I had to get a group shot. Lily was NOT cooperating...so she is not pictured.

Josh is picking out his pumpkin at the pumpkin patch. He is a strong little man. And cute too!

A family shot. It was pretty dang cold for the middle of October....but I would rather it be cold than hot!

I went to super saturday so Patric took Josh over to the park. Apparently, he wanted to go down the big slide all by himself. He is such a daredevil!

We have a TON of leaves on our yard. It is NOT fun to have to clean them all up...but Josh enjoys playing in the piles we make.

More October Fun!

We decided to go to the zoo...of course we picked the hottest day in October...but it was fun none-the-less. The Zoo has a petting area...and Josh even got to brush some of the animals.


I think this is my favorite picture that I took of the day. Josh got to pet a cow! He loves milk, so it is important for him to know where the milk he drinks comes from.
Josh REALLY liked the Gorillas. It was REALLY crowded in the gorilla house, so I didn't get to see him much...Patric was with him...but this was what he did the entire time apparently.

Patric cut Josh's hair, about a month ago now, but I thought it looked really good, so I did a little photo shoot before he went to sleep for the night.

Josh LOVES to laugh...I think it is one of his favorite things to do...and I love it too!
I call this picture the "fake smile". He totally does NOT smile like this...but he decided to and I captured it. He cracks me up daily.
