Sam's class went to the pumpkin patch today. It was really nice to just spend time with Sam and his class. I think he really enjoys it when I get to go to things at his school without the girls. They went on a hay ride, jumped into a pile of hay, listened to a story, ate lunch, and played in a big field.
One of our favorite things all year is the Fall Fest that our church puts together.
Sam and his friends from church. Sam asked me why I let him be a pirate because he remembered a few months ago when I told him that pirates were theives-
Grandma Karen was there spray painting hair- she works at the preschool at the church a few days a week.
Can you guess the theme- story books- we did "Going on a Bear Hunt" for our class.
Poor Sam- surrounded by girls! He was totally outnumbered by Emerson & Caroline and their friends!
Here is Sam's pumpkin for the boyscout carving contest. He did a great job! Can you believe there was ANOTHER hamburger there too?! I thought we were so original!
I took the kids to the park today because I had not taken their pictures in a long time! (well, not the kind of pictures that you dress up and take intentionally) I thought they turned out great- thanks to my mother-in-law who helped me.
The kids loved the barn- the animals were very lazy and I am guessing very full of food since everyone feeds them all day!
Fried Cookie Dough- we all had a few bites- not great
Caroline discovered her love for cotton candy- everytime we walked past a cotton candy stand she would make sure we saw it and try to climb out of her stroller!
We spent Kirt's birthday at the lakehouse. It was a short trip (24hours) but we relaxed and had fun!
Emerson was "driving" the boat- it took the kids a while to get back on the boat- this was the first time we have been to the lake since our boating accident on July 4th- we didn't know how they would react but Sam decided to get on the boat so Emerson wouldn't be scared. She sat out the first boat ride but Uncle Joe told her she could drive and honk the horn so she went very willingly!
The girls love sidewalk chalk
We enjoyed spending time with Kim & Joe
Caroline loves to sing "Happy to dooo" Happy to dooo" her version of happy birthday!
Emerson took her job as the worm holder very seriously- she definetly does not princess fish like her mommy
We love walking along the roads- it was a perfect morning walk!
