Favorites

Here are some of my favorite things from the last few weeks.

Muffins with Mom at the Kids school is always a favorite even though it means getting up earlier and standing in line for a Muffin.

You can tell that none of them were too thrilled to take a picture with me though.

After Muffins with Mom we stayed for Bash, because this little Kindergartner got an award.

He received the STAR Student award.

Students Taking Action and Responsibility

We are very happy with how Evan has adjusted to Kindergarten.  While he still says he is bored (I am pretty sure that's just his way of saying that they are having to do work and are not playing) he gets up and ready with no problems most mornings.

Another favorite of mine was riding our bikes to the 8th Street Market on a beautiful Saturday afternoon meeting some friends and having a few drinks.  It was a hot and sunny October day.

You also can't beat the excitement of the Fire Department showing up......the fire alarm went off in one of the restaurant kitchens.  Apparently that happens quite frequently, because business went on as usual.  The kids got a little tour of the fire truck.

On the last hot day we made a family Pumpkin Patch trip. While it did not feel like Fall out, I am still glad we didn't wait for the colder weather :)

We have been visiting McGarrah Farms since Hannah was a baby.  They have added so many fun things over the years.....

Lots of play time....

A little corn maze time.......and we didn't find the exit :)

Hannah took a picture of Scott and I......

and a selfie.

Then Nora wanted to take a picture of me and Scott, but she didn't realize the camera was still turned to her, so this is what we got:)

Four days later I went on a Field trip with Evan's class to the Pumpkin Patch and we were all freezing.  It got cold overnight.

First up was the Hayride out to feed the cows.

Evan liked feeding the cows tortillas......he didn't mind if they licked his hand.

Next the kids learned about pumpkins followed by a little walk through the corn maze and feeding the goats.

After lunch they had some play time and Evan agreed to take a picture with me.  We were all really cold at this point and headed out shortly after that.

This next one is just too funny not to share.  I needed some PVC pipe for a project and went to Lowe's and asked the guy to cut a 5ft pipe into 4 equal pieces.  

This is what he came back with:).  I just said thank you and walked away, because I was about to bust out laughing.

Sooo close :)
