The perfect day

It's gray and cold and windy outside. Waiting for the rain or maybe snow. But it's the perfect day for movies, popcorn, snuggling in...together. Just me & my two favorite short people.

Tub toy

Bath time + PVC pipe + imagination = FUN



Of course after taking this picture, I realize how disgusting my tub is - guess I know what I'll be doing today.

It's getting chilly out there!

When I got off this morning, there was frost on my windshield - frost that had to be scraped or at least defrosted for a few minutes. Yikes, winter is on the way!!

Happy Halloween!

The spooks came out on Halloween Night. This Vampiress might give you a fright!


The wind blew chilly and we wished it was hotter, but at least we had a cute Harry Potter.




Happy Halloween!

Our group was a little smaller to start than years past, but we managed to still have a great time.


We played games


carved and decorated pumpkins

and enjoyed each other. The guys even managed to get in some football watching.



Happy Halloween - see you all next year!

Oh, the fun we've been having!

October is in full swing and we have been making the most of it! We've been pumpkin patching, pumpkin carving/decorating and playing with lots of friends. Brett and I went on his school field trip to a pumpkin patch. We did the hayride, catepillar crawl, bronco roping, hot rod driving, picnic lunching and pumpkin picking. My camera died that day, so no pictures.



Thursday, we met up with some great friends in town from Boston for lunch and then on to Deanna Rose for more pumpkin patching! The Deels met us there too. What fun!



We took a hayride out to the pumpkin patch.



Hay slides are awesome!



So are giant hay bales



What are these crazy boys doing?



We did some picture spot taking too. Aren't they cute?









Later that night our friends, Xander & Charley, came over to play. Yeah, yeah, yeah!! We played, colored, ate pizza and played some more.



The next day, Kate & I took neighbor Sarah to the park & played. The trees were great. Here's some of my favorite shoots -





Ahhh, I love October!

We're Fallin' for Halloween

Yesterday we went on the big trip for fall front decor - flowers, pumpkins, squash. We pulled out all the Halloween decorations and got busy. Well, I got busy. They kids said they were going to help, but they played instead. No complaints here. That usually works out better for me anyway. So here's what we/I came up with for the front side area



It still needs some work. We are planning on making more ghosts to go with these two and probably some spooky lights for night. We also have to carve our pumpkins.

The front door entry



This is my favorite part



We are also working on the spooky graveyard in the back, but you'll have to wait for those pictures. We need to do some extra crafts for that! Always keeping busy!!
