Walgreens 31 cent special...

Walgreens had a Halloween special where if you bring in a kid in a costume, you get a photo, photos on CD, and greeting card for a whopping 31 cents. So here's ours! This is definitely the cheapest photo shoot we've EVER done!

Grandpa's boy...

Here's my little fighter pilot!

Punkin' Patch

Today we went to the Faulkner Family Farms pumpkin patch in Santa Paula. It was a lovely valley surrounded by hills/mountains. They had a hay ride, food booths, crafts, gardens, a petting zoo, and so on, in addition to the obvious pumpkin patch. It was a gorgeous day, and Chad and Danette joined us for the outing. 

Aren't they gorgeous?

This is one of my favorites... It just warms my heart right up (not that it was cold to begin with!).

Hard-headed

I'm so thankful for Asher's hard head, literally. The kiddo took a spill off his dresser/changing table and tried to break the edge of the window sill with his forehead before bouncing off the side table and landing on his head on a soft kid chair on the floor between the two. He wailed for 5 minutes, pouted another five, and was over it. I, on the other hand, am still feeling like the first place winner in the bad mom of the year award category.

He found a roll of wrapping paper under a cabinet and marched around with it a while. It was short-lived entertainment, though.

A rare sighting of Asher wearing shoes. He is NOT a fan, partly because his foot is so wide that it's a real struggle to get them on in the first place.

Denver

A few from recent weeks...

Taking after Daddy...


Look at that other gorgeous baby down there!

Happy baby

Took a break from the meetings in Denver to take Ash to the park. It
was cold (45ish), but he loved it. They had the best playground I've
ever seen.

I'm at meetings in Denver and today we're driving to Colorado Springs
to tour Focus on the Family. This pic is the Air Force Academy.
