I LOVE October!

I love October! I love the colors, I love as the hot weather turns cool, and I especially love Pumpkin Patches. We usually hit up 2 or 3 if only to take cute pictures of my little munchkins. This one was in Santa Clara. Grandma treated the grandkids to a fun time on the inflatable slides. 

Abbey and Jaiden search for a pumpkin. 

Colton visits the pumpkin patch for the first time. 

Visiting with cousins

Traveled down to Santa Clara last week to see family. The boys had a chance to play with their cousins in Grandma and Grandpas backyard. Whenever we have all of them together we always attempt at trying to get a group picture. The only "great" smile we end up getting in Justins since he is the oldest. It is a hilarious  sight to see because it involves 5 adults standing behind 3 cameras making the craziest sounds trying to get them all to laugh. I love the Look on Coltons face, he has no idea what a crazy family he has joined. It was a great visit. The kids enjoyed playing hide and seek with their older cousin Justin and playing Toy Story on Wii with Auntie Beth.

Colton is now 8 Months and is starting to crawl. 

We have a new "furry" addition!

So I have been begging for a new kitten since we returned from Pendleton last year, and Todd finally gave in. The one cat we have does not like the kids at all and I wanted a cat that would grow up with them and allow them to pet her. So when Ryan's new childcare said that they knew someone who had kittens they were giving away I signed up. She is the cutest little calico I have ever seen. She will come up to us and will rub against our legs and face wanting to be petted. She is too small to get away from Ryans grasp right now and has been placed inside a plastic halloween bucket several times in the last two days. Ryan gives her cars to play with and has even picked her up (by the stomach, feet dangling) to show her a picture he drew. Either she will totally despise him when she is bigger for torturing her or they will be good friends. We will have to see. She does not have a name right now. I am having a hard time coming up with one. So she is just being called Kitten. Any ideas? I was toying with something to do with the season or Halloween. Autumn is the only thing I have come up with.
