Thanksgiving 2011

Thanksgiving started a few days early as we made preparations for the big Meal. Of course it started with our costumes, not the actual food, although I think I had just barely pulled out the Turkey to thaw out as well :) The girls were excited to help make the hats and even more cooperative when it came to modeling them.

Thanksgiving finally came and here are the results:

Cold November Mornings

We are thankfull for our warm fire on cold mornings and afternoons!

Fall is Upon Us

Literally Fall is upon us-and despite the chill we are thrilled.

This is one of my favorite things, watching the kids get a thrill out of watching the leaves fall from the trees.

Welcome Fall!

Tyler's PhotoSession

Her Subjects, Coco, Nature, and Mom. I got a taste of my own medicine as she directed me where to stand and when to smile. Someone's been paying attention.

My Lil Worker!

Fall is in the Air and On the Ground

After the wind started blowing the leaves finally fell and the kids were THRILLED! Especially McKenna who ran out yelling she was sooo happy. They threw the leaves, raked them in a pile and jumped in them. They buried themselves in them. Chased each other and the dog with them. It was fantastic!

Nothing better than playing in the leaves...Right Now Anyway
