August to October 2013

8/30/13: Grandmama and Grandpapa took the kids to a local fair.
Owen loved the big jungle-gym-type thing they had.

Cara on the Ferris wheel.

An impressive action shot of Cara enjoying one of her favorite carnival rides.

8/31/13: On the boardwalk in Asbury Park, the kids encountered a familiar bunch of Star Wars characters (among others). Here they are posing with a biker scout from Return of the Jedi.

9/20/13: The amount of dirt that--REGULARLY--comes out of Owen's shoes.

After I took the picture of the dirt, Owen insisted I take a picture of him with his kitty.

9/21/13: Birthday celebrations at Uncle Jim and Aunt Sarah's house. Hulk smash!

Now with a super hero mask on as well (Owen decided it was Captain America's mask).

They don't look particularly happy in this picture, but Owen and Griffin really did have a good time playing.

Cara plays a game with Griff.

I took several pictures of all the kids, when we got them together, and since they all seemed to come out pretty well, I'm going to put them all here.

The funny thing about this one is that all of the boys seem to be screaming in unison.

Story Time with Uncle Steve.

Grandmom with Baby X! Dad took this picture with my camera.

10/5/13, Owen making his way bravely across the rope bridge at the Monmouth Museum.
