Pumpkin Patch Trips 3, 4, & 5?

I can't even remember now...

I have seriously lost count.
But one thing's for sure...


They never get old!
This girl is sure getting old though.


You will be greeted by her skeleton creation if you come by to Trick or Treat!

Sadly just as it gets cool enough to enjoy these fall activities, they pack up and we have to wait again 'til next year. Happy Halloween!

Pumpkin Patch Fun

Daddy was home early.

The sun was shining for the first time in days...as evidenced by our squinting.

The pumpkins beckoned.

It was too muddy for choo-choo rides and hay rides, so you'll be seeing very similar pictures in about a week when we return.

Consider yourself warned.

Living in Texas, I'm always laughing when the Halloween costume catalogs come out. Most of the costumes for children under two are lined, hooded, furry and clearly made for residents of the north pole. However, most of the costumes for ages 2 and up require layering many garments underneath just to cover the essentials.

I wasn't sure come 10/31 if we'd be experiencing a heat wave or a cold snap. I did know though that only one of my girls would be comfortable...temperature wise at least.

It was 80 degrees. Can you tell who was comfortable and who was not?

Also, can you tell who had a fever and ear tube/adenoid surgery scheduled for the next day? (We played Halloween dress up on Thursday night)


Not exactly rocket science I tell ya.

If you want to see my cuties last year, click here. If you want to see more cuties in general, there is a fun costume parade going on over here.

And because fall is my favorite time to bring out the camera, here is a little slide show of some other things we've been doing this season...which has really just begun for us.

Have a great weekend, I'm off to snuggle with my little post-op duckie.
