I may be a huge fan of autumn, but I am not majorly into Halloween. However, I love any opportunity to dress my child up and take photos. This year, Felicity will be Pebbles (from the once popular cartoon, The Flintstones) for Halloween. I bought her costume a month or two ago…and then second guessed myself and bought a second costume, Raggedy Ann, and then resettled on Pebbles. At the end of the day, this child won’t wear a wig…and makeup on a child this age seems like a really bad idea. Yesterday, we attended a “Trunk or Treat” at my...

I don’t know if I’ve mentioned it, but October is my favorite month of the year. I love everything about it…from the weather to the change of leaves to all things pumpkin.

Unfortunately, they are only open to the public on the weekends (what’s up with that?!), so we went to the park instead. At first, I left my camera in my diaper bag while my friend Pam took photos of our children enjoying the swings. When Felicity got antsy, I put her down and grabbed my camera. Something about the leaves and her outfit were screaming at me to be photographed. With camera now in hand, we...
