Here are some pictures of Parker! He actually wanted to be in the one with Jackson! I wish I would've noticed how dirty his face was before I took the picture though!




I love these pictures I took of Jackson last night! This outfit was my nephew Aiden's. The first picture is my favorite! I wish the light didn't make his hair look orange on the one side though!





The 2nd Voyage of the S.S I Told You So












We took the boat back to Patagonia Lake on Saturday and Jeff finally got to enjoy it! Thankfully it ran fine! He didn't catch any fish, but everybody still had a great time. Doesn't Jackson look like a little Giligan!? I love the hat! He did really well considering we were out on the lake for about 4 1/2 hours! Parker was of course completely thrilled that he got to go fast and had a lot of fun casting! He only hooked Jeff's shirt once! WOOPS!

You're probably wondering about the pic. of the cows! We got to the far end of the lake and I thought I was seeing things! They were several cows along the edges of the lake and the one was actually in the lake!

The last picture is Parker passed out on the couch. Not the most flattering but I thought it was funny! He slept on the ride home and then for several hours after that on the couch. I couldn't decide if we should wake him up or not. Of course when it was time for bed he wasn't very tired. I could hear him on the monitor talking to himself for an hour or so after that!

Parker and PopPop



After we went to pick out pumpkins, we went to see PopPop. Here are some cute pics of Parker and PopPop hanging out. Parker spent the rest of the day hanging out with him and playing in the "big" truck!

Our Little Pumpkins in the Pumpkin Patch!


Our Little Pumpkins in the Pumpkin Patch

Well we didn't make it to Apple Annie's this year but I think Parker still had fun at this little roadside pumpkin stand! We tried to go to a place in Hereford, but didn't have any luck! I'm sorry there are so many pics. but this was Jackson's first time and he was all smiles. I just couldn't resist. Parker of course did not want to pose but I did manage to few decent ones of him. He does that weird, forced smile now so it's hard to get a normal smile! The one of him kissing Jackson wasn't staged! He just leaned over and gave his little brother a kiss! That's why I call him my "sweet boy"! Look at Jackson in the second to last picture! It looks like he's holding up the pumpkin and saying,"Parker, will you just cooperate so we can get the picture done!" Jeff got the large one in the picture and Parker picked out the tiny, baby pumpkin! That's all he wanted! He says he wants to paint a "P" on it for Parker and a smiley face! I think Jeff is going to carve Wall E on his! His always turn out really neat! I can't wait to see it! I will post pics. when he's done.

















It was hard to get a good picture because the toy was in front of his face, but here are some pics. of Jackson asleep in the jumperoo! Parker never fell asleep like this!

Ooooey Goooey Caramel Apples!





We had an Ooooey Gooey Caramel Apple play date yesterday! I LOVE caramel and chocolate apples! I have to get one everytime we go to Foothills Mall. The Rocky Mt. Chocolate Factory has so many different kinds. My favorite is the one with caramel, chocolate, and white chocolate. Yesterday I made mine like that and added Health toffee bits! Yummy! Parker had all that and more on his apple. There were little bowls of all kinds of different toppings and I just let him pick whatever he wanted! His apple is the one in the front row. I wanted to get a picture of him eating it but unfortunatley I didn't!

Sorry there are so many pics with this post, but Parker actually wanted to have his picture taken and that's rare! I had a hard time narrowing it down! Parker's shirt says, "I'd rather be hanging with Grandpa!" My dad bought him that shirt a long time ago and it finally fits now!
