Fall

Here are some favorites from our Fall fun times the last few weeks:

We always love leaf piles!

Owen is really into Harry Potter and one day after school he made this sign for his chair/workshop and set out to make a bug healing "poshin" made of bubbles, hand sanitizer, soap and dog hair.

More leaves!

Our monkey girl!

Lots of playground time on those nice days!

Owen and Erik at Indian Guides Camp

Definitely a highlight for both boys!

Teeth

Owen lost his 2 front teeth!!  He hung onto the 2nd one for quite awhile, even though his 2nd grade pictures, but the 2nd one finally came out last weekend.  Jack 'o Lantern smile just in time for Halloween.  So cute!!!

Pumpkin Patch

I took the kids to the Pumpkin Patch on Columbus Day since they had the day off and it wasn't raining.  Always a favorite thing to do in October!!

Apples to eat on the hayride

Aunt Jenny, Norah and Molly came with us!  Here is this pair again... always so happy to see each other!

Our 3 crazies just defeated the corn maze

We only got 1 pumpkin in our backyard patch this year so we had to pick out 3 pumpkins for carving.  Since Erik wasn't able to make it on this trip my rule was they had to be able to carry their own pumpkin.

Except for Audrey... She loved this one too much for me to make her leave it behind.

Scarecrow

I had quite a bit of straw left over from a project I did so we decided to stuff our own scarecrow this year.  We used some old clothes Owen used to wear... he turned out pretty cute!

Stuffing....

We named him Sammy- clever, I know!
