Autumn Fun.

Unfortunately this year we had bad weather and sick children that made our usual whirlwind of activities diminish a bit, but we still managed to get some fun in.

Here we are at the Giant Corn Maze (corn maze...corn maze...).

Note the relaxed happy faces and clean clothes.  LOL

Moo showing off her muddy hands and pants.  Gravity was extra strong with her that night.  ;)

And the family triumphant!  (note the strained smiles and muddied clothes)

Word to the wise...it is best to go to corn mazes when the paths are still intact (ie:  NOT the last day they are open) and it hasn't been raining for days on end.  Heh heh...still trying to get the mud out of Moo's pants...

We had to skip Green Bluff this year, but we promised to go for the spring festival instead.

Since we weren't able to get our pumpkins in the usual manner (Green Bluff) we had to do some scrambling to find some!  We finally found three for the children, but D and I had to make do with something else...

Pumpkin night!

G1 went with a Egyptian theme (big surprise there...not), G2 and D worked on a piratey pattern, and Moo was just...Moo.

Did you see my and D's carving in that last photo?  In case you missed it--here they are!



Yes...those would be orange peppers. :D Hey, you do what you have to do and they looked totally awesome when they were lit. My favorites are the two on the right side. Hee hee. Too bad we forgot that peppers cook...and burn. Oh well...they looked more halloweeny that way. ;)

And one more picture...this is Moo after the Trunk or Treat. She went as a field mouse (along with little bunny Foo Foo and the Good Fairy) and fell asleep with whiskers and chocolate face intact.



Life is sweet when you're three.
