My Cuties Before School and New Kicks

The girls look so cute before school, of course I had to bust out the camera to take some pictures.

Pumpkins

We went to my mom's work for her annual pumpkin patch. Well, it's my dad's work too, since he recently started at Tarbell. The girls had so much fun getting their faces painted, playing games, coloring mommy's hair and picking out pumpkins. Lots of pumpkins! I think we ended up with 8 by the time we got home!  They love to get dressed up for Grandma's pumpkin patch.  I do too because they get to wear their costumes more than once!

There's a fog machine behind us.  That's why it looks a little blurry.

Logan won the stickers in a contest.

Yes, that's color in my hair.  The girls made me do it! :)
So pretty!

A Sneak Peak

The girls recently tried on their Halloween costumes to make sure they fit. Here's a cute little photo of the girls. Can you tell what each of them is going to be?


Baking With Mom And Auntie Carol

On Sunday, we went to my parent's house for dinner. Auntie Carol planned a special treat for the girls... baking Halloween cookies! I found some really cute Halloween cupcake liners, so we made cinnamon cupcakes too. As usual, I think more frosting ended up in Logan's tummy than on the cookies. Look how cute all our baked goodies turned out.

Homemade Birthday Wreath

As some of you may know, I'm not the most crafty person out there. So, trying to make something at home was a big step for me. Here it goes...

Recently, we went to this party. On the front door was the cutest balloon wreath that matched the theme of the party. I thought it would be cute to create one with several different colors so I could hang it on the front door during the birthday month of the girls. Peyton's birthday is coming up at the end of the month, so I headed to Jo-Anns and bought the supplies. I was shocked at how inexpensive everything was. I did have to make a separate trip to Target to pick up the balloons. Grammie stopped by Target and picked up some additional colors too. Peyton really helped out and it only took us a day to finish. What do you think? Thanks friend for the great idea!

Fall Is Upon Us

Saturday morning, the girls and I got in the car and headed to Tanaka Farms to visit the pumpkin patch. As we were driving down the street, we stumbled upon a huge pumpkin patch! This one is less than 5 minutes from the house, so we had to stop by. They had tons of slides, a petting zoo, a train, pony rides and tons of pumpkins! We were the first ones there, so they let the girls go down as many slides as they wanted. The girls had an absolute blast! Can you tell by the look on their faces?

They had some crazy slides at this place!

Sunday morning, Peyton had a play date with a friend from school. I took them to one of our favorite parks and then we headed to lunch. It was pretty breezy at the park and there were tons of leaves every where! I love the pictures of the girls throwing the leaves up in the air... a true sign that fall is upon us.
