Autumn Leaves

Yesterday was a beautiful fall day so we took the boys out to rake and play in a pile of leaves. You can tell by the pictures that they enjoyed the time outside!

Classic Jack.

Pumpkin Time

Yesterday we headed to the pumpkin patch/apple orchard with Aunt Sarah, Uncle Paul, Grandma and Grandpa to pick out our pumpkins to carve. Jack struck his usual pose in the cutout.

Again with Aunt Sarah.

The boys also tried out the big chair.

Jack relaxed in the wagon with the pumpkins even though Mommy wanted to ride in there (ahhh, appendectomy recovery!)

He looked like he wanted to fall asleep.

Owen fed some goats.

Aunt Sarah watched Owen look like he was thinking very hard.

We went back to Grandma and Grandpa's to carve our pumpkins.

Jack did a good job scooping out the guts.

Later Aunt Becky joined us as we celebrated Grandpa's Birthday!

The boys even helped blow out all those candles.

Then Jack showed us his love for chocolate cake.

What?!

I have more pictures from Grandma and Grandpa's camera of yesterday as well as the Halloween party the boys attended last week. I will post those once I remember to bring their camera over to my house!

FYI

Still definitely cute!

Busy Sunday

We had a jam packed day yesterday in the cold weather. The boys even had to get their winter hats out!

We headed first to the apple orchard with Aunt Sarah.

It was cold but we decided to head out to the orchard on the hay ride anyways.

Owen after we picked out some apples to try. We didn't pick any to take home (we bought them in the orchard store) because it was so cold out there!

Jack showing off his apple.

We checked out the pumpkin patch as well. Jack tried them as a seat.

Owen took his turn as well!

After the orchard we headed to the Fire Station open house so Jack could check out the fire trucks!

Digging the big truck and wearing his cool fire helmet. Owen was asleep during this but he has a helmet too. I took pictures which I will have to upload later.

Jack climbing on the trucks.

We headed from there directly over to Taylor's soccer game where Jack got reacquainted with "Aunt Krispie".

Go Taylor!!!

Brrr...

The cold weather has struck so we have been learning to entertain ourselves inside. The boys spend a lot of time playing with the tool bench Jack got for his Birthday.

I think he wants to be a plumber when he grows up!

Yeah, a plumber for sure!

He doesn't even notice!!!

Today we went to Jeepers with Grandma and Aunt Theresa. Jack got to ride this little ride that he missed when we went last week.

They also rode the banana peel ride which is a crowd pleaser! They also went on the roller coaster and Owen spends his time on there either laughing or screaming (good screams, but loud screams).

While Daddy is Away the Boys Will Play!

While Daddy was hunting last week I was hanging with the boys in the evening. They were showing off some of their favorite activities like Owen bossing Jack around for once!

Jack even managed to crash.

Owen doing some counting.

Then refusing to jump on his Zebra properly.

Then deciding to jump on it and somehow hurting his stomach.
