The Best Part....

Of Logan being at school (in Jacob's eyes...) is not having to share anymore.

Just Kids

I'm trying to make a point of taking more candid pictures of the kids. Posed shots are not working so I'm trying to catch them naturally...

Showing Norah some love.

This would be a cute one if it didn't look like he was picking his nose.

Serious face.

Big Bro and Lil Sis.

Mom, are you sure this is safe?

Hehe, all her little hairs are sticking up.

Halloween Fun

Logan got to wear some of the pieces of his costume to school this year! There were 5 pirates in his class.

Norah in her festive bib.

Halloween sleeper!

Checking out their treat bags from Grandma!

Hanging out in the swing.

In full pirate attire.

Jacob dressed as a "worker like daddy".

He's really hard to take a picture of these days.

Trying to get them both in one shot...

Haha.

Semi success.

And we're done.

Norah had a nasty cold so she and I stayed home (out of the rain) to give out candy.

Which house first?

Come on Jacob!

Checking out his candy.

Yum!

Pumpkin Time

We headed out to Nauman's Farm on what was quite possibly the coldest day of the season yet to pick our pumpkins. We did take many pictures and pretty much just grabbed pumpkins and got out of there!

This one will do.

One lonely pumpkin and one cold boy.

Logan exercising his muscles.

We (and by we I mean Scott and the boys) carved them a few days later.

Taking off the lids.

Scooping out the insides.

Trying to get all the goop out!

Last year Jacob gagged when he tried to clean out his pumpkin...he did great this year!

Eww!

And in true form, I didn't take any pictures of the finished project and they are all now long gone to the compost pile at the dump. Maybe next year. :)

Pretty in Pink

But not super happy to have her picture taken...

Birthday Party!

Since Logan is at school now, we decided to throw him our first school friend birthday party! He could invite 5 friends, so he chose and we sent the invites to school and ended up with 4 guests at our party.

The cupcakes were supposed to be red....

Chilling out before the party.

Someone looks ready to party!

The required birthday balloons.

We put them outside so his friends would know which house is ours.

The birthday boy.

Looking so big!

The little brother.

Together.

Playing games with some party guests.

Pirate Logan blowing out the candles!

All the kids had a great time! Logan is already looking forward to next year's birthday. :)
