Love the Leaves!

Morgan had SO MUCH fun jumping in the leaves! The best part is when she was done she helped bag them all up! 12 bags later it hardly looked like we raked!

Run Connor!!

Connor didn't mind walking through them, but getting in them was another story!

Fall Photos - Round 1

I got the urge to take the pictures a coulple weekends ago. So I dressed them up, and packed them in the truck! We headed to our usual park spot, but the leaves were still way too green! So we headed up to Catherine Creek, leaves still green but who could pass up water and bridge shots! Lots of experimenting and lots of fun!

Can you believe this was taken RIGHT IN FRONT of McKenna's school, yep the front entrance is directly behind Morgan! Sneaky, huh!?

Pumpkin Patch Fun

This year we opted for going out of town for pumpkins! We drove up to Pasco, WA, we heard there was a great pumpkin patch up there and was it ever!! Well worth the 2 hour trip. We started off going through the mazes, playing games, climbing pyramids, riding the merry go round, seeing the animals and picking out the perfect bag of cotton candy. Then we boarded the hay ride out to the pumpkin patch to pick the perfect pumpkin! We figured the kids would choose a small, portable pumpkin, but these pumpkins were anything BUT small. Once we had our pumpkins we loaded back onto the the hay ride for the trek back to the parking lot. The kids had a blast and I had a lot of fun watching them and taking LOTS of pictures. I chose some that would show a little bit of everything!! Happy Halloween!!

McKenna's perfect pumpkin!!

Morgan has her hands full with EVERYTHING!

Connor was not sure what to think about the animals!

Hello girls, how's the view?

Morgan could just barely see over to find her way through!

My 3 little pumpkins!!

Connor's 1st Not so Hot!

There's nothing like a Dutch Bros. not so hot to warm a kid up on a cold autumn day!

Morgan Starts Pre-School

Morgan had her first day of Pre-School on 09-09-09! Don't think we'll forget that day! She goes in the afternoon (12:15 - 2:45) on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays! She's a bit cranky when I pick her up from daycare after work, no naps! It's a little tougher for her to adjust to, she's not into it all like McKenna was! She'll get there and before we know it the year will be over and then it's on to Kindergarten!

Happy 80th Birthday, Aunt Norma!

Connor and his Great Great Aunt Norma!

Mini Rynearson reunion!

Grandma Rynearson, her grandson, Eric and her great grand babies!

Aunt Norma and the girls! What are the odds the ONLY picture I have EVER gotten of McKenna with her eyes closed! Still sweet!

Yellowstone National Park

Ok so these pictures are in no particular order! Here they are though, our trip to Yellowstone with Mom and Ken! We all piled into the motorhome and hit the road at 7 am. The kids were so excited! I was excited, I have never been before!

The scenery in the park was breath taking! This is one of my favorite shots, look at the water!

This was taken on the way home as we made our way through and over the Bear Tooth Pas!

Another Bear Tooth Pass shot!

Morgan exhausted from all the excitement!

Of course Mom and I enjoyed a nice bottle of champagne to commerate the occasion!

One of the MANY bison we saw!!!

It was as if time stood still in the park and nothing seemed untouched!

Our first encounter!

Geysers on a mountain side!

Morgan poses for a picture with "Beary" her Yellowstone bear!

McKenna and "Roosevelt" the wolf named after the man who saved this beautiful park so we could enjoy it for years to come!

A rare shot of just Eric and I!

More GOREGOUS scenery in the park!

During our lunch break Eric wandered down to a stream. The water was so clear!

This was the entrance to the park, told you the pictures were out of order!

And I couldn't pass up the sign that says it all! Everyone out of the motorhome it's time for a picture!!!

This antelope was directly across from the entrance sign into Yellowstown and couldn't care less about the cars passing by! He wouldn't even turn his head for Eric to get a better shot!

Connor, his bison and blankie! What more could a boy ask for!?
