Truck or treat

Once again the boys went to the Renton Community Center's Truck or Treat event. I didn't get a ton of pictures as it was rainy and I was juggling umbrellas, coats, my camera, etc. But I'll add more when I finally offload my iPhone. Nolan really wanted to be a german shepherd this year and convinced Miles to be the police officer so they can be the K-9 unit. The Renton K-9 unit happened to be there as well so that just pretty much made their day. 







Pumpkins

We learned a valuable lesson this year on our annual trek out to find pumpkins. The very best day to go to a pumpkin patch is Sunday while the Seahawks are playing. We had the place to ourselves on a sunny afternoon and it was fantastic. This year we went to Oxbow Farms since our usual place decided not to do pumpkins this year.







Can you guess what Nolan asked to have painted on his face? A German Shepherd of course!










We all found our pumpkins and Nolan kept his tradition of chatting up the tractor driver.



It was a great day all around. Pat even offered to record the game and come with so it was fun for all of us! Another successful pumpkin patch trip complete.

Miles goes to school too!

Miles started school last month too. And in true 2nd kid fashion his questionnaire got postponed. Well, it's finally done and here it is!


I had a whole outfit picked out that was so adorable: collared shirt, khakis and coordinating shoes. Nope, he wasn't having any of that. He chose is Canucks shirt, jeans, and converse. Whatever you want bud!

Plus the outakes:

I need you to smile Miles.

Like this?

A little bigger.
Did you get it?
 
Can we be done yet?

How about now?
 
That's it! We're getting closer.  
Did you get my back pack though?
 
Good enough, let's go!
