Super Hero

Jackson said early on that he wanted to be Batman this year!  I'm not sure where he came up with the idea unless some of his classmates mentioned Batman.  I'm just happy he wants to dress up . . . Halloweens were rough around here the first few years! 

 Katherine is always dressed up as a Cowboy these days.

When asked if she's a cowgirl, she'll quickly correct you that she's a cowboy.  :)

   I'm bummed her face wasn't in focus, but it's too cute of her not to include.

Our cowboy was aggravated that Batman wouldn't leave her alone.  Batman may have been causing pandemonium rather than saving the day.

One of my favorites of Jackson.  I can't believe how big he is.

It's safe to say the Vaughns are ready for Halloween!  Now, we just need to find all the candy that we hid too well from the munchkins.

Pumpkins Galore

Jackson and Katherine went to the pumpkin patch recently with Grammy and Grandpa.  Katherine then went to another pumpkin patch with her new preschool class the following week, and Jackson's class has an upcoming trip scheduled!  We're keeping the pumpkin patches in business.

Jackson is getting so big.

CHEESE!!!

Katherine had been saying she wanted a baby pumpkin,

and that's just what she picked out!

The last thing Katherine wanted to do was smile.

A real Angry Birds!  Jackson loved it!

Wild Side

I realized yesterday it's been almost TWO weeks since I picked up my camera, and it's almost been that same amount of time since the last post.  To help rectify the situation, I went through pictures of our trip to the zoo when Grandma was here.

 We are fortunate to have a really nice zoo for the size town, and to top it off, over the last year a new portion has just been added.

 This goose kept letting Jackson know it was too

close to some eggs Mama Goose was sitting on!

The petting zoo and splash pad were added in the

past year and are a hit with these two!

 Katherine took a spill and hurt her elbow,

 but it didn't take long before she was back out and smiling again!

They had a good time and we picked a perfect day to go!
