HSM on ice

We got the chance to go to HSM on ice. We went with my cousin and her cute little girl. It was so much fun the girls had a blast. They girls sang the song through all of it! They know every word. They use to call my brothers and sing them the songs.

Here's me and my girls enjoying the show!

Heres the dancer skating away!

This is my favorite picture!! We always tease my brother that his hair looks like this boys!! It was a fun girls night out. Thanks Penny for getting us the tickets and for letting us go with you. It was a great night! Can't wait to see HSM 3!!!

Happy Happy Birthday!

A year ago our beautiful little boy was born into our family. He has been a joy in our home.He has made us smile from day one! He showed up 3 1/2 weeks early and threw all of our plans off track!

Here's me and my little buddy. He for sure is a mamas boy and I love his cute wet kisses!

This is the best picture I could get of the kids. They wouldn't be serious or look at me! Imagine that!

He loves his new ball or any ball at that! He has learned to throw it and sometimes it goes over his head and hits him on the head and he thinks that its funny!

I'm not sure who likes the toys better...... Poor kid doesn't get a chance to play with his toys cause his sisters like to play with them to much!!

Our cute neighbor gave him his first b-day present!! A paper airplane.... It was so cute when he came and gave it to him. He loves our neighbor boys and thinks they are great!

We didn't get to celebrate like I wanted to for his first b-day because we had some other plans that night!! The girls and I had a girls night out to see HSM on Ice(I'll post pictures later). So we sang to him and he opened his presents and then we left. We are hoping to have cake later on this weekend.

It has been a fun and enjoyable year. Its fun to have a boy in the home and see how different he is from my girls.

Happy Happy Birthday Buddy Boy!! We love you

Another pumkin patch

I had to post these pictures cause this farm so a blast! We didn't have school a couple of weeks ago so we went with our neighbors to another pumpkin patch . This was the first one that Tay got to go with us to. So she loved it. They had a straw maze which the kids loved and a hay ride which I took Addie and our neighbor boy on. They had some farm animals and the thing my kids loved the most was the horse ride... Which I told them I wouldn't pay $5 to have them ride a horse. Since I grew up on a farm I think its silly to pay that much money to ride a horse, but my kids love horses. Last summer I couldn't get Addie off the horse when we were at my parents house. My poor brother-in-law had to take her on a long ride and she was in heaven!! After they rode the horse it was well worth my money cause they were so happy and they said they couldn't wait to go to G&G's house to see the horses! I forget my kids are city kids!

She loved this horse cause it looks like G&G's new horse

Add was so scared to go down the slide the first time and then she couldn't get enough!!

I love this last picture. Our little buddy was fine just playing in the pumpkins it kept him busy for a long time while the kids were in the hay maze. Plus he loves his sisters so much and his face lights up the minute he sees them. That's why we call him buddy cause he is their little buddy!!

We love this time of year and have loved going to all of the pumpkin patches. We missed some that we wanted to go to but maybe next year!! Its been a fun fall here at our house!

October fun!!

I love this time of year. When there are fresh apples and lots of pumpkins everywhere! We went to an apple farm with our preschool class. Luckily school was out that day so all the kids got to go. The girls had a great time drinking their apple cider and going in the straw maze!!

This was one of those days that we won't forget!! It was raining so hard and I didn't want to go but Tyler said we need to be "true Oregonians" so we put our rain gear on and off we went!! We went to the Giant pumpkin weighing contest. Its where they grow these huge pumpkins and see who's weighs the most. They were amazing!!

This was the highlight of the festival. They got two pumpkins and used a crane to lift it up and then pulled a rope to drop it on this car. The two pumpkins weighed 2000 pds!! They pulled the rope the first time and it didn't work. They tried for 15 min to get them to drop and they couldn't. While they were trying to fix the rope it started raining so hard right in our face... It wasn't very enjoyable!!! so we walked away to keep the kids happy and right as we did they dropped them and crushed the car!! At least we saw some of it right!

Here is one of the pumpkins that they were weighing. It was so huge!! We didn't stay long enough to see how much this one weighs.

We went to another patch this last weekend and hopefully will get to one more before the season ends. My kids have so much fun and I can't decide who likes them more me or them!!! Please fall don't leave us to fast!!
