Farm Fest

Our neighbor has a fun Fall Festival that she puts on for the "neighborhood" kids.  It is always so much fun.  She even calls on an engineer to create her straw bale maze!
The new no climbing rule made the maze even better because the kids had a real hard time finding their way out.



Kdubs favorite part! 

Oli @ the face painting station



"bobbing" for apples



In pares the kids raced to see which team could get dressed in Dicks clothes and down the length of the yard the fastest



Priceless quite from Kdub when she found out the next station was buttoning a shirt... "Wait, D do you know how to button???"


 Little siblings vs Big brothers - Big Brothers won this round but wait until next year!

JP not so sure about the pony.  He liked it but not ready to bug his HL for riding lessons like his sister is. :)

Pumpkin Carving

The kids helped me get pumpkins out of the garden the other day for decorations and they couldn't wait to carve them! 
 Not so sure about the pumpkin "gunk"


 JP decided that he would do his own this year.  He drew his face on and then got to carving.
 Kdub decided to use one of her patterns.  She did a great job poking out the holes.
 Hard at work


She did have a little help from mom carving it.

First Soccer Game

JP was so excited for his first soccer game last week.  That morning he told P "Dad, if you are going to shutdown early tonight my first soccer game is at 3, so if you are done you should come to my game" Luckily for us it rained that day and dad was able to come.  When we got out of the pickup we could hear him tell his team "I knew they would come!"


 JP's good buddy H.F. was playing on the Yellow team (who one 1 to 0)
 JPs turn as goalie
