Carving The Pumpkins

The kids getting down to business

Em did good for her first try.

Please don't look right at the double chin.

Yes I carved Cinderella's Carriage.

Bauman Farms

It was such a beautiful day that we went out to Baumans for our pumpkins. This farm is just amazing. If you have never been you just don't know what you missing.

My three little pumpkins

Emery's first Pumpkin was just too small.

number two still not quite big enough

Number Three was just right.

This is the perfect Ainsley sized pumpkin

Everybody in

And we're off

What cha looking for Ains

She thinks she's so big.

She made me do it.

I'm the one that washes Ainsley's hair and I know how long it really is. I also know any time I do something girly with her hair, clothes or let her put on lipstick, she is an angel for the rest of the day. So this morning, after having some Zombie fun, she asked if I would try to straighten her hair.

From the back.

Front

And with a little attitude

I know it is amazing how much hair it takes to make all those curls.

Bored to death. Literally

The kids were all sick and I wasn't about the take them to church the week before the Primary Program and get all the other kids sick so we stayed home. It didn't take very long before we were climbing the walls.
So I turned them into zombies

Of course Jackson thinks we looks like General Grevis.

Oh! And I turned myself into the prom Queen that snapped........ Slasher style.

What was bugging us today

The kids and I pulled up to the house this afternoon after getting Jackson from school and it was literally covered with lady bugs

Here are some pictures of the infestation

The last Camping trip of the year.

We took off Friday after Jeff got home from work and drove out to Detroit Lake to get one last camping trip in before winter traps us in for the next 5 to 6 months.

Breakfast Saturday morning.

The water was so low that you had to walk about a quarter of a mile to get to it. Where the kids are standing is under water in the summer.

Emery was so amazed by all the leaves

We just keep getting critters that want to eat out of the dog's dish.
I think we need to just feed the dog inside from now on.

The vine maples were on fire with fall leaves and we all thought the ones in the lava beds were just awesome. It looks like the ancient lava flow is erupting.

Jeff just reining in the baby.

More fall color at Clear Lake.

We went it to Sisters for lunch and they were having some kind of Saturday market.

It was a little cold for ice cream but Jeff's a spoiler.

She just kills me.

I know that camping is not a fashion show but I was looking pretty bad.

I don't know what this was all about but she sure is cute.

DOG PILE on Daddy.

I made a scramble for breakfast on Sunday

A little last minute fishing

Elsa decided to go after some ducks. I'm supper surprised that she didn't sink.

Emery watching the big kids fish

Home again. Home again. See you next year trailer.
