19 Months/Halloween Professional Portraits

We meant to take 18 month pictures with Jaclyn, but by the time we got around to it, they ended up being 19 month pictures. Fortunately, we were able to do them, our family portraits, and Halloween all in one sitting!

Enjoy!!!

Halloween

This year, we decided to take Jaclyn Trick-or-Treating (as Tinkerbell of course!) in our neighborhood for Halloween. Here she is with her "bumkin," that she kept trying to push off the step instead of taking a picture near it as we left the house.
We also had a little trouble figuring out our "Trick-or-Treat" bag!

On our way!!!

First stop, our neighbors two houses away. We practiced saying "Trick or Treat" and "Thank You," but she got a little shy when she got to the door at first. We settled for a really cute, "Bye-Bye," as we left.

Here's another house in our court. They have a little boy about six months younger than Jaclyn. He was a dragon, but Jaclyn was a little too scared to get near enough to him to get a picture.

Here's another well-decorated house in our court. Jaclyn really liked the skeleton on the front porch!

And finally the house right across the street from us. By now she got pretty good at saying "Treat," and "Tay Chew!"

Here she is with Grammie, looking at all the candy she got in our court.

She got to taste a Smartie, which she really liked!

In the car, getting ready to go visit her daycare. Notice the Smartie in her hand!

On the way up the driveway to Carmen and Papa's

One of the little boys from daycare was there as well. He and Jaclyn had fun looking at each other all dressed up!

There's Papa with more Smarties!

On our way back home with Grammie!

My little trouble maker!

More Smarties?

Daddy even let her try part of his Kit Kat!

And then some more Smarties!

All in all, I think Jaclyn had two packs of Smarties, and two Kit Kats! Surprisingly, she still slept really well that night! As I'm sure you can tell, she had a great time!

Uncle Jake's 21st Birthday/Jaclyn's Weekend on the Ranch

We all went up to Tahoe to celebrate Uncle Jake's 21st birthday last month. Grammie rented a really nice cabin for us all to stay in for the weekend. We had a great time going with Jake to the casinos, and even got to take him to his first bar; "Murphy's Pub!" Above is Jake's friend Conner, John, Grammie, and Jacob when we first arrived.
Here's Katrina, Grammie, and Mommy right before we went out the first night. Unfortunately, I don't have a picture with Uncle Chris; he didn't get off work until late that first night, and these are the only pictures I took all weekend!

Here's Katrina and Jake playing the new game I taught them; "Super Speed!" LOL! They agreed it was the BEST GAME EVER!

While we were gone, Jaclyn got to spend the weekend with Grandma, Grandpa, and Auntie Erin on the ranch. Here's Auntie with her babies Porter and Kyra. Could she be playing "Words with Friends?"

Jaclyn got to drive Grandpa's tractor with Grandma.

She had a BLAST playing with Porter!!!

Here she is in her new jammies Grandma bought her. I can't believe she already fits into a 2T!

I think she had a great weekend too!
