Pumpkin Patch 2012

Posted on November 8, 2012 by Lindsey

We went to Fall City Farms to pick out our pumpkins this year. We timed it perfectly between rain showers one Friday afternoon, and had a fantastic time. The boys had a blast playing in the hay maze and searching for the perfect pumpkins.

This & That

Posted on November 4, 2012 by Lindsey

Below is a random collection of photographs from this fall. I can’t help laughing looking through them. Our boys sure are silly, and a ton of fun to boot!

Someone’s happy it’s meal time!





“Well excuse me!”


Silas in his towel

It doesn’t take long before his big brothers are beside him


One day when Avery was coloring, he asked me “Mommy, how do you spell Kieron?” So I helped him sound it out, and then when I came over to see what he’d made, it was the sign below. “Kieron” is on the bottom with a red X through it. There are also illustrations about keeping out. Wow, how sweet. Too bad Kieron doesn’t read. 😉

We had a visit from Grammy and Papa.


Their shirts don’t lie. They really make a ton of noise!

Avery eating more corn. “I will get this tooth out, I will!”

Silas teething. “I will get these teeth through, I will!”


Avery and Kieron are getting better at playing cooperatively together. Here’s proof:

Rub-a-dub-dub, three men in a tub!

And on a couch

The many expressions of Silas:

This is his “blue steel”

Salmon Days 2012

Posted on November 3, 2012 by Lindsey

We took the boys to Salmon Days the first weekend in October. It was fun, it was crowded. A challenging place to be with three little ones, but we managed to enjoy ourselves.



Mmmmmm, honey straws!


Avery’s got another loose tooth, and is trying desperately to get it out. He was so funny eating his corn on the cob. Why turn the corn when you can tilt your head?







Jump salmon, jump!

Soccer Season

Posted on October 28, 2012 by Lindsey

Avery just finished soccer a couple weeks ago. He had a good (enough) time playing and was really excited to get another trophy at the end of the season. He was not the most competitive player on the team, but had a few goals and some assists. It was fun, but Mommy and Daddy are glad the season is over.

Yum, orange wedges!

Over the Mountains

Posted on October 22, 2012 by Lindsey

A few weeks ago we packed the boys in the van and made the 4.5 hour (6 with kids) drive to Pullman, WA to visit Uncle Scott and Aunt Manivanh for a weekend. We had a great time visiting, but as usual, not enough time. The cousins were happy to be together and kept each other entertained. Here are a few pics from our trip:

We checked out the WSU campus, saw where Uncle Scott works, and visited the Grizzly Bears at the university

I’m pretty sure the boys were joking about bear poop here

Kieron loved digging in Uncle Scott & Aunt Manivanh’s garden





On Sunday we went to Phillips Farm and picked apples and plums

Here’s our bounty:
