October

A few pics from October:

Our friend Gil recently took a family portrait of us for the 2009 Apogee catalog.  Sam was only mildly cooperative so we had to coax him with Cheddar Bunnies and snap fast.  We failed to get a smile from him, but at least you can't detect crumbs on his chin or tears on his cheeks! 

Earlier this month Sam & I went apple picking with friends.  I realize in looking through the photos that I never took shots of the orchard or the picking.  But below are some images of other fun at the farm.

On our way to the orchard with friends Hannah & Beck.

Needless to say, this tractor was the big hit of the day.

I thought this plastic Frankenstein monster might frighten Sam...

 

...but I was wrong about that!  It was love and kisses at first sight.

Nothing like a tasty Mac right off the tree!

Making popcorn with Daddy.

The other morning I decided to let Sam watch TV for the first time.  Here he is getting his first taste of Sesame Street.  Glad to report we've detected no adverse side effects :)
