Trick or Treaters

So far we have had 7 kids come to the door to trick or treat. These are the neighbor's grandkids.
Emily ---Peace!!!
Tucker is GI Joe-from the new movie?


My great nephews



AJ as ....well you know




Patrick as a Mario Brother--Right? I'm not into the video game thing.





Did you know that chickens can drive lawn tractors?






Yes, I know that farmers don't look like Mark and Susan. I used to be a farm wife, never did see a farmer wear overalls-but ..............................Farmers are outstanding in their field.







Cute Chick

So, I came out of the house with the camera to take pics of Payton on the tractor, and I stepped in a hole (Gary had dug out one of the sprinklers) and I fell....no one noticed cause they were watching Payton. So at least I was saved from that embarrassment. But I'm gonna hurt in the morning, wait, I already hurt.

Sleepover With Payton-

Payton is spending the night with me tonight....first time. First time they have left her anywhere. Since Susan is on call tomorrow morning and can't be more than 30 mins. from the hospital. I'm taking her home, and Susan wants her home as soon as Payton wakes up. This staying all night is going to be hard on mommy.
I love fall, and I love taking pics of the kids in the leaves.

I think Payton loves fall too!


But, she's done with the pictures, she's outta here.



Today is Mark's birthday--Hope he had fun with his friends tonight, I loved having his daughter overnight.

Happy Birthday Haldey

Today is Hadley's 4th birthday. We had a party for her a couple of weeks ago...before they left for Maryland. Hadley also had a party at her preschool.
I talked to her today, she said she missed me, the feeling is mutual. She asked about Tucker and Emily wanted to know what they were doing. She told me about how the leaves are pretty and falling off the tree, she collects them on their daily walks, she told me she would mail me some pretty leaves.

Can't wait to see daddy


Nicole text messaged me, that Hadley woke up at 1:00AM--she was ready to go see daddy. Only thing is the plane didn't leave until 11:30am. Hadley had a long wait. Nicole also texted when she arrived in Baltimore and said that the flight went well. What a blessing!

I'm so Bad--Or ---MY BAD

Yes, I'm bad. I have been reading a few web sites that poke fun of mess ups and boo boos and I enjoy it. It all started with CAKE WRECKS, then I went to THAT WILL BUFF OUT, I shared this site with my 6 year old grandson, he loved it. He loves cars and this site is all about cars that end up inside a house, or under water, or in a sink hole. Tucker and I looked at every picture on the website. The next site is THERE I FIXED IT, I think this might me my favorite, it shows how people fix things by jerry rigging them, garden hose for a shower, duct tape makes a nice fender......Then theres AWKWARD FAMILY PHOTOS, some of the pictures are too funny, but someone in the family sent them in, so it must be okay to laugh, right? The site that makes me feel a little guilty is PEOPLE OF WALMART.....just hope my picture doesn't show up on that site.

Pumpkin Patch Weekend

Jillian--because she slept thru the pumpkin patch trip

This weekend we painted pumpkins




We fed the animals at the pumpkin patch

Pictures with the Pumpkins


Payton's first pumpkin


We went for a walk in the corn maze. I wondered if they would come and get us if we couldn't find our way out.

We followed Tucker, He was Lewis or Clark, not sure which, he would run a head and find the dead ends.

The kids walked/ ran thru the haybale maze.
We went on a hayride.


We fed the animals again.




We had a fun day----Only this is the start of our Saturday.........the pictures are completely in the wrong order. I don't know why I can't remember to put the first pics in last.........
