The Petterson Posse: 2011

This girl loves the bathtub! She wants to stay in even after I empty the tub...brrr!

She is very into "sickers"!

We made some yummy cookies from here...yum yum! I love pumpkin cookies that aren't "spongey" And these ones were perfect!

Hannah reading one of her favorites.. Pat the Bunny. She loves to stick her finger through "mummy's ring" in the book.

Painting with fingernail polish, I thought this would distract her enough for me to paint my nails, but it ended up a huge mess!

Hannah rarely falls asleep in the car anymore, but this time she did and we got to cuddle with her in the rocking chair...something I really needed/wanted at the time!

Playdoh Dora, Boots and Backpack, Hannah thought this was the coolest thing!

This girl makes messes all the time! Seriously, come over and you will find me cleaning up a mess she made, and I am not talking toys...that is something I can deal with. The following, however, is just too much sometimes!

Butter.

powdered sugar.

...oh well, I guess it's not too hard to clean up...

At the nature center with our friends C and B, they were so cute putting on a little "play".

We went to our annual ward Trunk or Treat and Chili Cook-off...

Hannah at the fishing pond...the littles were getting soooo crowded out my the big kids, but she finally got to fish!

She enjoyed the donut eating "contest".

She really, really enjoyed it and put the entire thing in her mouth!

Hannah and Mommy

trunk or treating.

No, Connel did not dye his hair...He and I dresses up as Sandy and Danny from the movie Grease... (I dressed as the Sandy from the end scene.)

Hannah and her little friend Addison.

Connel hair turned grey.

Hannah and her little friend Caelen (a ladybug)!

Classic Caelen and Hannah...

Hannah was an owl if you couldn't tell...I found the hat at Target in the little girls section, and made the rest of the outfit by sewing the felt feathers onto an old summer dress! It was my favorite, I'm so glad I decided to make this! (and thank you to Katie... for taking this classic picture of Hannah!)

We headed down to Columbus to meet up with Connel's Dad and Brother, but we took a couple hours to stop at a pumpkin patch and get some pumpkins!

She drank the apple cider and little too fast!!!

We went on a little hayride!

The ladder to nowhere (aka the corporate ladder...haha!)

Walker races.

Big Blue Sky!!!

This was all you can carry for 12 bucks, so we grabbed the 3 we liked (they were all huge) and Connel lifted them up! They said the record lift was 13 pumpkins back in 1989!

Hannah couldn't quite lift them...:)

Boo ya! That's MY husband!

We then headed to Columbus to see Grandpa Petterson and Uncle Cody! It was nice to see them even if it was just for a short time. But we will see them really soon for Uncle Cody's wedding! :)

Playing around with Grandpa Petterson...this is Hannah jumping off the back of the couch and Grandpa catching her just in time...don't know how I caught this on camera! Wow!

We carved our pumpkins! Last year Hannah was playing IN the pumpkin guts... this year she wanted nothing to do with them!

She would only use the spoon to touch the stuff inside!

So strong!!!!

We used a wet erase marker to sketch our faces, but Hannah just enjoyed coloring all over her pumpkin with it!

She was a little messy, so we gave her a bath...WITH GLOW STICKS (thank you pinterest)! It was cool! She played for a long time and did NOT want to get out!

Pictures with our cute and classic pumpkins...

See that little jar of Mallow pumpkins? It's in that cupbaord which has a baby lock on it, but that doesn' stop her from reaching in and trying to get them...she has been sneaking into it all month!
