Fall Family Photos.

Connor is 3.



Angus joined us for a picture this year!


And we got cows in the picture too!






Jace is 6.


The whole gang!  Max is 6 months old...and Brook is 1!




This is more how the photoshoot with Angus went...he not only pooped in the back of the truck on the way down, but he also wouldn't sit still for pictures.  So.....


It was an experience.  Connor looking at Jed in this picture pretty much sums it up!  LOL!
But, he's part of our family so I'm glad we got some with him!

Renyer's Pumpkin Patch!

We made our annual trip to the Pumpkin Patch in October!




The kids are getting bigger!


The Johnson grandchildren added one more this year!




Melissa and Alexis had fun on the tricycles!


Always fun to use this contraption...it's in the goat pen and supposed to take food up to them, but we seem to just play with it.


We really got into the bounce pit this year!


We always love the "Tractor rides!"





How tall this fall?

 



Max's Grandma Kelly volunteered to take Connor down the huge tunnel slide!






We had a great day and a great time! Jace chose to shoot the pumpkin cannon this year instead of getting a duck for the water races.  When you shoot the cannon you aim at a Jayhawk or Wildcat, and it hit the Jayhawk on his first try!  I'm so proud!  Ha ha!

October...

Some of Connor's moments this last month...I loved her plaid shirt and cropped jeans and sperrys...ADORABLE...

And the picture from the car is from one of those late nights during harvest...sometimes we take blankie and Tigey with us because we do a lot of running during harvest...

Oh, and the fridge.  Gotta love Connor and her snacks. :)

Speaking of harvest...Connor got to ride with Grandma J in the grain cart when they started harvest.  And the picture in the bottom left--that would be the ranger that Jace got stuck driving around the field.  And then he cried when he had to tell us and Jay that it was stuck.  But, they got it out, no big deal....... Lesson learned? Probably not.


Just another day at daycare....a little wild dancing and a bump on the head...


Connor FINALLY learned to use the potty!  We made a couple attempts and she WAS NOT interested.  I thought that was a lie when people said their child "wasn't ready" but she was completely different than Jace!  With Jace we decided to do it, and it was done!  With Connor, we tried, and she didn't cooperate at all.  And didn't care if she was wet.  So we stopped, and tried again.  Another SOLID NO.  Finally, after her 3rd birthday, we tried again, and she was quickly potty trained.  Who knew?  Although...as strong willed as this one is, we should have seen it coming!  

But, it's done!  WOOHOO!



Senior photo? Maybe we can recreate this in a few years...nothing like posing on the Toyota.


She loves her Angus boy, and he loves her.


Jennifer sure is brave.  Painting pumpkins?  Why not...


We watched our friend Austin play in his youth football league and got a LITTLE excited when we saw his dad Ryan!


Also in October Colton played indoor flag football!  We only got to see one game but he did a great job!
