As much as I would like for it to still be summer, I have come to terms with the fact that fall is here to stay. Here is the proof from our weekend that it is officially October:
Abby and I spent yesterday morning working on her Halloween costume. This summer she told me she wanted to be a clown and I had the best plan for a cute and colorful clown tutu. Recently, she burst my bubble and insisted that she needed to be a witch. Ugh. That's no fun. Until I decided that she could have a cute and colorful witch tutu...
Once she put it on she said, "It's really poofy." I said, "that's what makes it cute." She didn't skip a beat when she said, "Actually, I'm what makes it cute." I have to admit that I agree with her but heaven help me when this kid is a teenager!
Happy momma and happy girl!!
Ben is going to be a ninja. Which is perfect since he asked Santa for ninja costumes last year.
Once the costumes were taken care of, we got some wood stacked on the porch since fires are now a daily occurrence around here.
And then it was outside to build Steve, our scarecrow. And to have a hay fight of course. Because that's the most fun part of building the scarecrow.
And then we got down to business...
Hard to tell which one is scariest....
Today, the sun was shining and we headed out to the pumpkin patch with our favorite three year old!
Robbie had to work but asked us to get him a tall skinny pumpkin. Abby said, "Let's trick him and get him a gourd"...
There were lots of new babies at the farm and now we think we need a kitten...and a pig. And maybe a cow.
As much as I don't love fall, I do love all of the October traditions that we have. For this weekend, fall really was pretty great!
