the one with the fall party

Joe has a cousin who attends the Naval Academy and she only comes home a few times a year. One of those times is Columbus Day and her birthday falls right around that time. So as a celebration of all these things and the fall season, we have the Fall Family Fling.

There are no winners in the pumpkin carving contest although my personal favorites are the DC star and the moon and stars (that's mine). I just don't do scary.

  

    

Next was "bobbing" for Apples. We didn't really "bob", instead the apples hung on a string, Joe's aunt gave them a good swing and the rest of the story is told in pictures...

It's always great to get together with the family! Can't wait for next year, I am already planning what I will carve on my pumpkin.

CRAPSHOOT TUESDAY

CRAPSHOOT TUESDAY

My niece in the way too small Excersaucer. Man, I wish this one had come out clear.

the one where i posed

Guess which one is not like the rest?????

I just wrote out the story and it was way too long to explain...just leave it to me to be the one making the face in the picture when everyone else is serious. This probably doesn't come as a surprise to some people who read this blog on a daily basis (you know who you are).

More to come from the fall party later...

the one where i went back in time

I admit it, I am probably one of the biggest blog stalkers there are. I check about 35 blogs on a regular basis and about 20 of those on a daily basis. Yes, I know, I counted. Most of them are photography blogs (not a lot of reading just looking at pics), some of them are family and friends and there a few decorating blogs. Anyway, all that to say, you never know what you are going to find on some of these blogs and while stalking last night, I found this website. 

I am not even kidding, my mom will think she is looking in her old yearbooks at herself. I'm pretty sure she actually had a yearbook picture with her hair cut and glasses just like this one from 1960.

           

1958      1960

           

1968        1974

It's a fun distraction and the years go all the way from 1950 to 2000. Try it out for yourself, upload it to photobucket and put the link in comments. Too Funny!

the one that i love

I love all of these! I am so happy that they turned out so good "on the fly". Some of them I couldn't decide b/w or color so I posted both. What do you think?

J, hopefully you can find one that you like enough to frame for Steve-o.

This is probably my "most favorite" one of all-time! I L-O-V-E everything about it. 

And this one is probably a close 2nd! Look at that open-mouthed smooch. Love it...

Last night, Joseph and I had a fabulous time at his family's annual fall party and I took lots o' pics. Stay tuned for a posting in the next couple of days.
