Pumpkin Carving

We have had a few busy days of late so we finally got around to carving our pumpkins! We made the kids do most of the work this year... and they did a great job!!

 She isn't a fan of pulling out the insides!

 Matthew "needed" a root beer to get his creative juices flowing..HA!

He made cleaning out the pumpkins as fun as it could be!

 Proud of them for working so hard!

Drawing on the designs...

And, like a good mom, I did NOT get ONE photo of their competed pumpkings... NOT ONE!! Ugh!! Oh well.. they did turn out cute... you 'll just have to take my word for it! :)

Pumpkin Patch 2016

We finally got a dry day (it has been raining non stop for the past month!) and took advantage of it and headed out to Baggentoes for some pumpkin hunting!

 Ready to head in on a foggy morning

 Silly boys!

 Love this boy!

 Love these two as well!

 Told ya it was foggy!

 I like this one, mom, but it's super heavy and muddy!

 I'll keep it, tho!

 Matthew picked the muddiest pumpkin! :)

 One

 Two

 THREE!! We like to play around in the Christmas trees and look for ones we may want to pick when we come back after Thanksgiving.

 Just his size!

Playing on the tractor is a highlight every year!

Another successful trip in the book! Happy Fall!

Happy Fall Photo Shoot 2017

I am glad my kids still allow me to do my Happy Fall pictures.. even tho there is more and more complaining as the years go on...HA!!  We took advantage of a rare sun break after school today and I got some pics of my sweet kids.


Evelyn's shots....she is looking more and more grown up all the time!

Then there is Matthew... who is taller than his sister and full of silliness!!

 He needed me to take a few photos of his "ninja moves" before he would take more "nice" photos! :)

 They really do love each other!

Here are my favorites from the day.....

It is such a blessing to be their mom!
