Halloween Preview

 Jacob as a ninja.  I think he just wanted the weapons to go with the costume.

 Grace as a princess.  She was the easiest this year as she wanted to wear a costume from our dress up box.

Merry as Little Red Riding hood.  She insisted her basket have real food in it.  I had to put a couple of loaves of pumpkin bread in the basket to get her to use it.

Adam was asleep so hopefully I remember to take a picture on Halloween.

Random October Stuff

Merry and Adam showing off their dance moves to the Cha-cha song- I have no idea what the real name is.

Grace watching from the stairs.

Halloween cookie making.

I think that is supposed to be a mummy in a coffin.

Grace with her owl.  She kept this for days because she said it was too cute to eat.  I finally had to throw it away.

Adam only licks the frosting off.

A group shot from the corn maze

Jacob loves to be in pictures.

Octoberish stuff

 

We visited the corn maze/pumpkin patch.

A balance labyrinth took a while to solve with Adam as the counter weight.

The chickens

and goats had to be fed.

Trying out the swings.

More swinging.

Hopefully we will find the way out.

(Remember when I dressed my kids up to go to the pumpkin patch, totally does not happen anymore.  I am not even sure Adam coordinates at all.)

A bird's eye view.  Adam kept repeating "wrong way Dad."

 

Nice and sweaty in the Florida October weather.

A little dirt digging.

Then on to selecting a pumpkin, or climbing trees.

 

Merry was the pumpkin rolling champ and won me a bag of kettle corn.

Grace with the perfect pumpkin. 

And now it is time to go home.
