October Happenings

I know some may disagree, but to me, fall is the most wonderful time of the year! I live for it. It's perfect temps to play outside, especially with a wee one. Walks are better, smells are better, food is better, entertainment is better.. everything is better! One of the things I most look forward to is the Pumpkin Festival in my hometown, Milton. It is a HUGE attraction, and so much fun with such good (bad for you) food! I love it! We met some friends there, but our camera battery died after about 5 pictures. So there's not much documentation!
This is our friend, Alli, with her son, Noah. He is 2.5 years old.

This is one morning we were playing with chalk. It was the first time for Piper, and I really don't think she understood too much about it. Our driveway is a big slope, so we were near the bottom to be in the sun because the shade was a tad too chilly.

I don't remember when or why this picture was taken! Maybe because I had some make-up on? ;)

And another photo shoot with Daddy. I am so thankful for these pictures.

One year pictures - by Daddy

 Daniel has many a skill, and I am thankful one of which is taking pictures! He'll be the first to say he doesn't like taking pictures of people, but our budget for GETTING pictures taken is non-existent. So I think he happily obliges in taking pictures of Piper. We didn't get as many newborn pictures of Piper as I had planned, or hoped, so I am thankful we have really picked up in taking pictures. It is more difficult now, because we have a "toddler" who likes to move more than stand still, but I guess we'll be able to look back and think "remember when she was always distracted?" ...
Daniel hasn't been able to edit these yet (not like he's busy or anything?!) but I am on a blogging roll, and really don't want to get them out of order! I think they're great just the way they are, though. I am not a fan of heavily edited pictures!

 I took the ones of Daniel and Piper. I probably looked homeless that day, which is why there are no pictures of me. :)
