Fall Family Pictures

It's that time of year again. The time where I drag my family out for fall pictures together! We have a friend here that is getting into photography and offered to take our pictures. We think she did a fantastic job! Between Connor's naps (no one whats a grumpy baby at a photo shoot) and Chris's work schedule it's hard to get the lighting and leaf color timing just right, but I think we did pretty good this year. I definitely miss the orange and red from Ann Arbor, but fall is still pretty here, short, but pretty. I can't wait to get these printed up!


I just love this one!

I can't decided if I like this one or the first one better. They are both really nice.

A fun shot. 

Halloween (a little late)

I debated and debated on what to make Connor be for Halloween this year.  He is REALLY into cars, but I didn't think he would enjoy running around in a box shaped like a car (I honestly don't think he would have left it on). The costume also had to be something I could make. Chris's mom made all their Halloween costumes growing up and I've seen pictures. They were very creative and cute, so the bar was pretty high...

We went with Peter Pan and I have to say Connor made a very adorable Peter Pan.  Chris and I thought about dressing up as other cast members (Captain hook and Smee), but time just wasn't in our favor by the time I got Connor's costume figured out.  We did take Connor to a few homes to trick or treat and he did pretty well with it.  I think he had more fun looking at all the decorations.  One house had a strobe light and he thought that was AMAZING.  He completely forgot to go and get a treat! We did let him have some M&M's but that was about it. Anyway, here's out cute boy!

We went up and had lunch with Chris on Campus.  Connor was a huge hit with all the students and staff.

Posing for mom.

Our car all decorated up for the trunk or treat.
