Dad carving out his pumpkin while Connor watches curiously 
The finished pumpkins! Dad's is the spider holding the pumpkin, Mom's is the goofy smiley face and Connor's is the mini pumpkin with blood shot eyes (he must have missed his nap... LOL)
Saturday morning we went out to breakfast at the Old European and then headed up to the Knapp's Pumpkin farm in Green Bluff. Green Bluff is just North of Spokane and they have 38 farms. They grow all kinds of fruit and veggies you can pick. Several of the farms have kids activities too. I'm sure we'll spend more time up there next summer when Connor's old enough to run around and pick his own goodies.
whoo hooo! Pumpkins as far as the eye can see!
All kinds of funny looking pumpkins!
We thought Papa would like this picture of Connor on an old time tractor. =)
feeding the mini horses... just Connor's size!
the mountain goats.
This is the pumpkin cannon (probably Jason's favorite part of this farm)
shooting a pumpkin into the air... we missed the pumpkin in the picture but you can see all the straw shooting out. They shove straw in the cannon before the pumpkin to get a good fit. We skipped the corn maze this year since Connor was past his nap time and his little eyes were getting sleepy.
We had to make a stop on the way home though to get him some Sea Hawk gear for tomorrow... Boy's Sunday Football! 
Testing out Connor's Halloween costume for this year. He's going to be a dragon! I need to find him some green sweat pants though... the blue pj's just don't work. LOL
Going for a family walk. The temperature sure dropped fast here. It's cold outside! We're in the 40-50's. Connor stayed nice and toasty though... thanks to the snow bibs Grandma K got him! And the multiple layers mom put on him.
Playing with his V-tech game system with dad
I think we skipped over Fall and went straight to Winter. Brrr! The news said the temperatures we're having right now we don't typically see until December. I went shopping and bought Connor a nice warm winter jacket and some snow boots, which I'm sure the snow isn't too far off if these temperatures stick around. Grandma K bought him the snow bibs. Daddy bought him some mittons, but they aren't as thick and warm as I'd like and I'm having trouble finding him some that are small enough. Not that he'll be using them much, but I want him to explore the snow this year! I also stocked him up on sweaters, sweatshirts and warm lined pants. I'm not looking forward to the snow, but when it comes... we're ready!
We watched Ryan (my brother's little boy) Saturday evening! He's 4 months old now.
he liked Connor's bouncy swing. All these toys to check out!
Me and my favorite two little boys! I just adore these little guys. The cutest, sweetest little men! 
In continuing with spoiling daddy- dinner was Lasagna, followed by warm chocolate browning topped with Devil's food chocolate pudding. Yum!
Daddy's home! 
We surprised him with a yummy omelette, toast and I stopped by his favorite coffee stand before he woke up to get us both a nice hot mocha. Plus last night Connor and I made him some brownies with chocolate pudding. Welcome home daddy!
my munchkin in one of his toy bins
This picture cracks me up! He looks so much like Grandpa Jon here with his red flannel shirt, hair sticking up in random spots, hand on his hip and that expression. The basement is Connor's play room, as you can tell from his toys spread all over the place. 
Sippy cup- check, travel buddies- check. Loaded up and ready to roll. To the park we go!
Sunset Park in Airway Heights. Oddly enough this park doesn't show up on any maps?!? Yet they have a full size basketball court, volleyball court, 2 baseball fields, 2 soccer fields, 2 play grounds (1 for little kids, 1 for bigger kids), skateboard ramp area, public restrooms, BBQ area's and tons of paved walking trails. It's a beautiful little park!
We almost had the entire park to ourselves too. An older gentleman from India was there with his granddaughter. Connor couldn't keep his eyes off the cute little 2 year old girl. I had a wonderful talk with the Grandpa while the kids were swinging. India sounds like a nice little place... little too hot for me though. Although I may change my mind if this winter is anything like the last 2 have been.
Mom and Connor in our Old Navy Halloween shirts. Our house has officially been spook-a-fied! We have all the decorations out, except dad's traditional scare crow on the front porch and the spooky spider webs. Those come last.
We had a cold and windy weekend. So, Sunday morning we had breakfast fireside at the Rusty Moose Lodge. Yum! Then it was home for the boys to watch some football together.
Connor has mastered walking. He's moved onto SPRINTING now. As you can tell from his fat lip he doesn't have sprinting mastered yet. Poor little guy. 
Jason left for Alaska this week. The crew of the Northwestern Crab boat, from the TV show Deadliest Catch was on his flight! We love that show. So, he got to see Sig Hansen. On one of his other flights he saw Paul Guilfoyle- he plays Jim Brass on CSI. And Joe Biden- the Vice President was at one of the places Jason was working at. I keep reminding him to take pictures. Maybe someday he will so I can post them!
