Little Haunts

Scarecrow Festival

Thanksgiving Point has so many wonderful Halloween activities, this year we opted for the Scarecrow Festival. We were some of the first people through the gate, which paid off because Sam and Owen had most of the inflatable bounce houses to themselves.

The kiddos also had their faces painted - I'm glad Owen saw the baseball last minute, he wanted a ladybug at first. I'm also glad I was able to talk him out of the unicorn, like his cousins were getting.

Wheeler Farm Pumpkin Patch

This is the best picture of the bunch. Emily is trying to smile (albeit eyes shut), Sam is not looking the right direction and I'm pretty sure Owen is mad at me for making him take a picture.

They had a great time running through the maze leading to the pumpkin patch. It was a wonderful Fall morning.

Owen is Obedient!

Owen has been working very hard to earn some batman pajamas. Yesterday, he completed his chart and is one very happy little boy.

Dave and Sydney by Owen

I love Sydney's hair (on the left) and their spooky eyes!


See the resemblance?

Halloween Craft

4 trips to Home Depot + 420 pieces of 3 1/2" X 2/12" wood cut + One saw blade ruined + 2 hours at craft store + 840 pieces of paper and letters cut + several nights of panic that I had forgotten to do/buy something + 4 loaves of pumpkin bread and trays of Oreo Truffles = One very fun evening and a very cute craft

Joey as Batman

Joey was on the news last night following an outpouring of web articles and stories that emerged last week. It was great publicity and it is always interesting to find yourself newsworthy. They even linked him to batman. Our son is so pleased. Click here for the full story.
