We're off to see the wizard...

Liam, Madison and Cameron all dressed up like characters from the Wizard of Oz this Halloween. They were so cute together. Good thing Madison and Cameron loved getting into their costumes because it was the only way we could convince Liam to put his on to take a picture. *sorry for the poor picture quality...these are scanned from prints that Aunt Dana took

GG's nemisis

Karen's grandma loves to repeatedly shared a story about Karen when she was little. The story goes that Karen's grandparents were away on vacation and while they were gone the Folger's came to visit and rake leaves, clean up the yard, etc. Karen's mom didn't want them to know who had been there so she made sure she cleaned up after all of the kids. When Grandma and Grandpap arrived home, they knew instantly that Karen had been there. How did they know??? Because Grandma found petals plucked off of her plants inside the house and plants pulled apart outside....
Well...the trait must be genetic...

visit with Jaidyn

Karen's Aunt Patty and cousin Susan came to visit this weekend. It was so great to finally meet Susan's baby girl Jaidyn! Liam had a great time posing for pictures with Jaidyn and sharing some of his old toys. Sorry...but most of the pictures taken this weekend were of the kids only. (who wants to see the adults anyways....)

playdate with Quinn

Liam had a fun afternoon with Karen's friend Katie and her son Quinn. They all went to Cox Farms today. Liam and Quinn loved playing on the slide, in the trains, scooping in the cornboxes (instead of sand), checking out tractors and hay bailers, going on a hay ride, seeing baby animals, and picking out pumpkins to take home.
I'd better check this wheel out so Grandpap can drive this...
No wheel checkin' for me...I wanna drive!
Who is the sign talking about...the pigs...or Liam?
Liam and Quinn share an apple in Liam's wagon.
Wheee! We're all going down the slide!
Scoopin' corn is so much fun.
Who let these guys drive the train?

Let's get that pumpkin over there!
The end of our afternoon....

AJ's wedding

Brian and Karen went to Jacksonville, Florida this past weekend for Adriana and Andy's wedding. Karen was one of the bridesmaids and got to spend lots of time with the bride-to-be, while Brian got to spend quality time with the boys on the golf course. Here are a few pictures of our fun filled weekend.
