Play, play, play

















Even after several hours at the Pumpkin Patch, the kids still weren't tired if you can believe that! We went to lunch at Fatburger and the kids were running, screaming, and climbing. We decided to go to a nearby school and further tire them out. Everyone kept their lunch down after spinning endlessly. I had a hard time holding on and couldn't stop laughing hysterically. Noah and Caleb are slowly becoming trouble makers, hoping no one will notice. They have already gotten into Grace's piggy bank together and love to chase one another while screaming. Noah did finally fall asleep on the way home.
























































































































Tanaka Farms
















We enjoyed pumpkin season at Tanaka Farms with Kevin, Tiffany, Grace and Caleb. The kids loved the tractor ride around the farm. The petting zoo smelled lovely as always. There was a pumpkin cannon that shot the pumpkins up a hill, and a corn maze that we couldn't quite get lost in. It was a great place to spend time together as a family.

New Cousin







We met baby Lucas, Danny and Charlotte's little boy. He is healthy and eating well. Naoh is excited to have a new cousin. Danny and Charlotte are great parents and Lucas is doing a great job whipping them into shape.

October Bunco


We had a small group for bunco at my house, but we managed to make it work. Ashley, Rachelle, Vivien, and Lizzy all came over. We ate dinner and sweets together and had fun dressing up. Can you guess who I am?

Beach of Their Own




Mother's Beach was deserted as all the kids are back in school. The weather was just warm enough this day and the kids enjoyed splashing in the bay. Noah had a hard time sharing his "surfboard" at first, but it became a game of chase the kid on the surfboard. Tiffany met us at the beach with Grace and Caleb, and Leslie came with Quinton.

Prettier Every Day




There is no end to the cuteness of dresses and bows!

Hide and Seek


Kevin and Tiffany came over with their kids Grace and Caleb for some hide and seek. The lights went out and the flashlights went on to hunt for the parents in hiding. Sometimes we hid too well and were left waiting, regretting our decision all while hearing the kids pass us by. Now whenever Noah can't find something, it is "hiding".
