Snips and Snails and Puppy dog tails

OK...so I'm not a huge fan of Halloween...didn't grow up 'celebrating' this holiday and I'm not completely against it.  I just hate the fight with candy and the costumes...and them wanting to do scary things...I don't want them to wear scary things and I fear I'm running out of time on that one.  I'm holding out for as long as I possibly can! Here is Ian, Captain Jack...we tried coffee grounds as a beard...he didn't really like or want to be we talked him into it.  Afterwards when he was getting it off his poor skin, for like a week, was all welted and bumpy from the coffee grounds! Oh I felt so bad...lol but he looked good.  Kinda like wearing high heeled shoes right?  No??? OK  Here is Lee...he was Mario again...he looks completely thrilled right?
 Dah nanana nanan ana Batman!!!! I asked where Robin was and Batman told me Robin was having some wardrobe issues and won't be joining us tonight...how sad! He (Eli) said he really wanted Charlie a…

Today was the Kindergarten field trip to the pumpkin patch!  Woot! Woot! Truly a red letter day here...why you ask? Well, it's the first one for Dru as a Kinder!  They road the bus and everything!  Of course we love the patch we went to also, that always helps! Eli and I met Dru and his classmates at the patch and we went around with his class and discovered and experienced things together...and with a whole bunch of rowdy Kinders...LOUD! We had so much fun petting the farm animals, going down slides and figuring out mazes.  Of course there was the corn pit (and this year we managed to only bring a quarter of the pit home and not all of it...progress people!).  We do of course know the highlight of the day of course is taking the tractor ride to the place where the pumpkins are!  We have arrived!! Dru picked out his right away and he did good! Nice and round with a great stem! Tag a long here picked one out too...he took a little more time browsing and finally came upon this one…

Just fooling around with pictures  Corn kernels in the corn pit! The kids love this part of the field trip to the Pumpkin Patch!  That and I'm pretty sure I washed a whole corn field after that.
 I love this picture...I had a creative moment to get a different perspective.  I have moments!
