Big Orange Pumpkin Farm

It's October, so we thought it was time for the pumpkin patch!  Our playgroup went today!

Luke really liked looking at the animals, but didn't want to get toooo close!

This was the best picture I got of the two of them together!!

This one amuses me... cause it seems to say... Ok... make sure you ignore Mommy!

Hayride time with friends!

Pumpkin Selection!

Whoa... this pumpkin is heavier than it looks!

This one is more my size...

Pumpkin Patch Outtakes!

Look, Ma!  It's a goat!

My photographer friend, who just happened to be next to me on the hayride, was nice enough to snap this of the three of us.  Check out her website - Gingersnap Photographs

 

It was a fun day at the Big Orange Pumpkin Farm!

Being VIP with Mr. Froggie

Anna is VIP for her class this week... which means Mr. Froggie came home with her Tuesday.  She has been enjoying Mr. Froggie.  He helped us buy some ingredients at Target for our pizza and then he liked eating the pizza.

Today we took Mr. Froggie to the park and Anna mostly played in the sand, so Mr. Froggie did a few other things so he wouldn't get too dirty.  

Fall Fun

Here's the 3 felt candy corn bean bags I made for a bean bag toss. :)

 And a felt witch hat...

 Luke really enjoys his books these days.  Sometimes he climbs in the glider and reads on his own. :)

And here's a cute one walking in to church this past Sunday.

Ladybugs Game #3!

Anna was Captain for her soccer game.... which means she got to bring the snack. :)  I made these little lollipops to go with their crackers and juices. 

 

After some bribery, Anna played her best game so far.  She actually watched the ball and tried to kick it some. :)

I'm not sure what she was telling her brother here, but it must have been good!

Here's Mark being a great soccer dad! 



Luke finally got to talk to the ladybug during a time out :) 

Jeremiah's Shower!

I got to make a quick, spontaneous trip to Houston to Nicole's shower while my sweet husband kept the kids!  Here's Mom, Nicole, me & cousin Laura. 

This is a cute baby sack that one of Nicole's friends made.  But as you can see, it's also a great hat for Nicole.  :)

Presents!

Fall!

I've been having fun with fall decor.  Here are my new sconces in the dining room.

And a little more decor...

First Ladybug Soccer Game!

I think they're plotting their strategy...

Ready to play!

Anna gives it a good big kick then thinks she's finished.

Action shot... Anna's #10.

Kick it where?

Water break!

Good game!

Anna's favorite part... snack time!

We didn't win, but we had fun! :)  Go Ladybugs!
