Witches, Ghosts, Goblens and Gouls...we had a Happy Halloween how about you???
It was a very busy day today. Since we did not get our pumpkins until yesterday we didn't get the chance to crave them until today. We woke up, ate breakfast and then it was off to crave the pumpkins. My children are not the sensory type kids so they didn't enjoy it very much and Kerry always thinks he is going to get sick from the smell so that leaves mom to crave the pumpkins. Karson wanted a spider this year and Kamryn got a scarecrow. I like to do the unique pumpkins however they take forever. Our afternoon was spent playing outside. Karson could not wait to go trick-or-treating. We went down our street and then over to Grandma and Grandpa Lindsay's house. It was fun to see Karson enjoy dressing up and having fun. Kamryn (as a bumblebee could have cared less). And then there is Auggie. We tried to dress her as a pumpkin but she was worse then a child!!!
It was a fun and exciting day and the weather couldn't have been better!
Happy Halloween to everyone.

Auggie as a pumpkin!

Kamryn dressed as a bee with her Scarecrow pumpkin!

Karson as Spider-Man with his spider pumpkin!

Yesterday we went to a local pumpkin patch. Both Kamryn and Karson had a terrific time running around and playing on the silo slide. It was a beautiful day to be outside...there aren't many of these days left (a.k.a the snow on Sunday).

Karson and Kamryn in front of the silo slide. Look how we have grown.

Today is a beautiful fall day. Not a cloud in the sky. I love these days however, I know that they are numbered. Can you tell that I am not looking forward to winter. I keep telling Kerry that we need to move south...no, not really I love it here.
Anyways, because it was such a beautiful day the kids and I decided to head to the park for a pinic lunch. We enjoyed the lunch but not the bees that bothered us! After eating we all spent some time running around on the playground. I truely enjoy these "outside days" with my children.

Kamryn loves the swings. Lately she tells me to give her Ungerdogs (that is how she says it). The highter the better. I love this picture. You can just tell by the look on her face that she loves it!

Karson enjoying riding on the lion.

We are definatly enjoying these wonderful cool, crisp fall days. On Wednesday Karson, Kamryn and I all decided to go down to the local lake with some friends and fed the fish. Both Kam and Karson had a great time. Kamryn couldn't stop hollering at the fish...it was quite funny. It was much more fun feeding the fish then the ducks. The last time we fed the ducks they were after us and it was scary.

Karson and his class by Princess Owatonna in Mineral Springs Park.

Karson's preschool class took a fall field trip to a local park here in Owatonna. We completed a fall scavenger hunt. The kids had a terrific time trying to find acorns, different colored leaves and other fall items. Kamryn also went along on the field trip. What can I say I think she is ready for preschool already. She thinks that she is one of the "big kids." It was a fun time.

Karson and I after the wedding. I just love this picture.

Here are some pictures from the wedding reception. Following is just a picture of Kerry and I dancing away the night! Below is a picture of Kerry and I at the end of the night. If you notice Kerry's eye brows yes they are filled in with sharpie marker. My brother's friend Carl (some of you may remember him from high school Carl Hoyt) decided to fill in Kerry's eyebrows and of course Kerry allowed it to happen. Sometimes I just don't know what I am going to do with that boy. We had a terrific time!
