Bro and Sis

They're buds.
Brother.
Sister.

Family Pics

Love these pictures. I'm not going to upload them all, because they take forever. But here are some of the family ones.
There are some that are more posed. But let's be honest...that's not really our style.
Seems like we added another kid since the last bridge photo.

Visit from Grandpa Gary and Grandma Kerry

So what happens when a 4-year-old spends too long unsupervised in a bathroom that also contains "tub crayons"?
Birthday presents from Grandpa and Grandma: cold-weather clothes! You have no idea how exciting this is for the boy who prays for snow.
We love visitors!

Unwrapping Presents

Yeah, Quinn figured that out pretty quickly. She had her brother to show her.

Birthdays

Live, from the fireman/dalmation birthday party. Probably the first and last co-birthday-party they stand for.
Before. Isn't she dainty and proper?
After. Doesn't she look like a little like a jr. circus clown?

Cookie Monster

Tate got to help his mom make ginger snaps.
Yes, I believe that's sugar on the side of his face.

Pumpkin Patch

After the summer fried our own personal pumpkin patch, I guess it was back to the place where the pumpkins grow in mowed fields with no vines attached. Sigh.
This pumpkin may have weighed more than the one trying to lift it.
Our little cowgirl.

Boomer!

They do look pretty good in red...

Big Kids...

So, it's been a few months since we last posted. And these pics are a couple months old.
But holy cow, these kids are big, right?
How do these things happen?
