Halloween


Halloween 2016 has arrived, and with it, a ghoulish blog post!

This year, inspired by his cousin's birthday present last month, Alex was a British redcoat. (Thanks to Amazon for a truly dizzying variety of costume options!)

Genevieve was a bat. I even found her $8.95 black flats at Walmart that she *likes*!

Harvest Farm

I took the kids on a Girl Scout troop outing this morning to Harvest Farms in Wellington. It was a fabulous down on the farm morning!

The giant hay bale stack and maze reminded me so much of the stacks of hay bales in my Grandpa Bill's barn hayloft!



The kids enjoyed climbing through a tough obstacle course!




The pig races were a big hit too
















Sno Cones- yum!!













The kids really get along well most of the time. They are, more often than not, each other's best friend and ally. That's not to say they don't still fight and annoy each other - they wouldn't be siblings otherwise - but most of the time the disagreements are only skin deep.
