Before Ed left for Afghanistan, we were able to spend a couple of days together as a family. We had tons of fun at an apple orchard near our home. They even had pumpkins! So...we picked up some apples to eat and some pumpkins so that we could carve one of them and roast the rest. Now, I have a ton of pumpkin puree in my freezer that I can enjoy throughout the winter months. When we were at the orchard, we decided to have the kids pose with the pumpkins. I think that we were able to get a few nice shots (as you can tell it was a little sunny that day).

Here I am carrying our finds back to the car.
Tate also decided to pick out a few apples for the family.
And the pinnacle of the month of October for Colt...Colt actually pulling himself up to a standing position!
On a Tate note: he has really taken to the piano. It's so cute! He even "reads" and turns the pages! If he keeps his interest, he may be learning how to play sooner than later.

Cute pics, Kellie. I wondered when Ed was going. I hope you are all doing ok.
Thanks Angie! I'm doing okay. Some days and better as others (as you know).
Sun! I love it! Not so much here.
Great pics! Sorry to hear Ed's deployed. Is it 12 months? Matt's gone too. This has been a very easy deployment for me - but, that may b/c it's short (6-months) and my kids are older. Hang in there!
