Weekend adventures!

So Cora and I decided to go get our noses pierced this weekend.  The kids went with us and thought it was so cool! 

Carving pumpkins!

The kids and I carved pumpkins!  We made a big mess and got all slimy and had a great time! 

We seperated out the seeds and roasted them the next morning.

Here the kids are being silly.

And here is the finished product!

Trip No 2 to the pumpkin patch!

So Wednesday night was the second trip of the week to the pumpkin patch!

Here are the girls towing their brother out to the field to search!

And here they are searching the field for the perfect pumpkin!

And of course part of the searching process is getting a ride!

The perfect pumpkins have been located!

Here are the kids starting the journey out of the field.  Notice how well they work together!

One stop on the way out of the field to take another picture!

And towards the end I helped them tow the wagon.  This weekend we carve the pumpkins!



Trip no 1 to the pumpkin patch!

Bryant and I took his girls to the pumpkin patch Monday evening after work.  Was lots of fun hunting for pumpkins! 

Here is the trip out to start the hunt!

Here is Becka sitting on a green pumpkin!

Here is Cally getting ready to pick up a big pumpkin!

Here is Cally with a slightly smaller one!

And here are the girls towing their choices out of the field!

Kids first time climbing!

Steep World here we come!  The kids had their first experience with climbing in a climbing gym.  They all loved it!  We will definitly be going back.

MacKenzie and Cally on The Slab

Tanner on The Slab. Notice the climbing shoes.  It took awhile to get five kids into climbing shoes.  The shoes are definitly different!

Here is Becka with the harness and rope. The kids loved climbing higher once they were roped off!  We were putting candy at the top of the wall for a treat when they got to the top!
