Fall Soccer Photo Shoot & Scare Crow Festivities

Team & Individual Photos before the game. As you can see, what an Adventure. :)
He has the look of "I will Crush this Ball" I'm not even going to post all 9 other shots I took of my 8 YEAR Old Child as I'm saying "Jonathan Smile, Jonathan STOP, Jonathan, Jonathan, Jonathan"!!!!!!


And if your asking why I would say "Jonathan STOP" This picture says it all. What is Jonathan doing?????? Acting as if he is the Crowds Entertainment. It does me no good to Yell, Plead, and have Steam brimming from my ears as EVERYONE EGGS him on with laughter, Parents to be included! So, I might as well take a Picture to show him one day when he has his own child and wonders "WHY" ;)


After the Game we went to one our favorite Deli's on the Sound in Olympia. We enjoyed the BEST Claim Chowder!
These pictures are taken from the window where we sat and enjoyed the view and our lunch.
This is just a TINY Glimpse of the Fall Foliage here. WA has the most Beautiful Fall Scenery to be seen. I will have to bring my camera along for a Walk and Share the true Beauty here during this time of year. The Reds, Yellows, Golds, & Greens are Stunning!
The Weather is very much Fall here right now. We woke up to Cold Rain this morning and lucky for us the Sun popped thru the Clouds and we enjoyed a Crisp Day.
Late Afternoon we met Ms. Renee and drove out to Sumner for the Autumn Leaves Festival. We went thru all the shops & had a great time. We seeked out treasures in the Antique Shops, and enjoyed all the Halloween and Fall Festivities in the Boutiques
The streets were filled with Scare Crows & YES they do SCARE!!! ;) I thought they were FAKE until we approached the first one that jumped out to SCARE ME! Renee & Jonathan got a great belly laugh ;)

The Scare Crows were Students from this Adorable little Towns High School.

The 3 of us & Jonathan of course still unwilling to corporate for a photo!!! Santa can see this Blog MR.!!!!!!!!!!
The Scare Crows were just Everywhere and so very much enjoyed. This town is Alive with the Spirit of Fall & makes you want to Carve your Pumpkins Now!!! My favorite store was the Picket Fence where Renee and I fell in Love with some Vera Bradley Purses, Wallets, & More! I definitely made my contribution to help stimulate the Financial Crisis today. Worth every drop in the bucket too! We ate at a cute little Mom & Pop Family Italian Diner in Town and off we went home with bags in tow. Jonathan feel asleep on the car ride home, much to big & grown for me to carry up to bed these days. I couldn't help but stop for a moment and get a good look at my little/big boy peacefully sound asleep after a long day of fun! ;)

  1. Oh Katie, what a wonderful day! And I love the idea of the scarecrows. How fun to do such a simple thing, yet it brings such joy!! We too had our very first REAL fall like day! It was in the 60's and just delightful! I made potato cheese soup and the kids were here to eat. And the Great Pumpkin light was lit, which is the true beginning of fall for us! We will see you soon at the wedding!
    PS Cute pics of Jonathon! I knew another little "actress" about 25 years back!!!!

  3. What a fun Fall day. Love those scarecrows. That is so cute.

    Johnathon sounds like he has got so much personality. Kids like that are so fun. Wish I knew him better. Can't wait to see you guys in a couple weeks.
