Pumpkin Patch

Well it's 4am here and I'm wide awake blogging. I've been up since 1:30am thanks to someone who decided to go on a tagging spree in our neighborhood. Almost every house has spray paint on it including our fence. Alot of vehicles were covered in spray paint so I guess I'm just thankful they just got our fence. Glad I have a big dog, they are cheap security! He woke us up immediately!

So anyway.... The hubby felt a little better Saturday so with the temps in the 60's we couldn't resist a trip to the pumpkin patch! We took a hayride out to the patch and they also had a kids corn maze, peddle tractors, sand boxes, and a big slide. 

{I promise I'm not pregnant in this picture, a rust shirt on a rust background is not a good picture idea!}

We let Ryder go on the hunt for his very own pumpkin and of course he found a bunch and wanted them all

He finally found one that was the perfect size and carried it around the rest of the day 

He especially loved the hayride because we went past a field of horses 

Afterwords we headed back to the little barn store that they have there and snacked on apple cider donuts. So good!!

His little pumpkin looked perfect on our kitchen table! Although I think I'm going to let him paint it himself soon 

We ended the long day with a trip for some Ice cream before going to bed early. Pumpkin pickin is hard work!

Hope you all had a great weekend! Happy Monday!

Sick

Here it is October 4th, 4 days into cold and flu season and I have a house full of sickies. My hubby has it the worst so far, it's been two days of throwing up, high fever, congestion, sore throat and coughs. I am praying that me and Ryder don't catch his sickness! Ryder so far just has a runny nose, restless sleep and a slight cough which I hope is just caused by teething. I am really not ready for this sick season!

He was mean muggin me for making him take a trip to Costco

I guess this is how you color when you don't feel good

 

But I did still manage to get a few smiles out of him

I can probably thank alot of this sickness to Mother Nature who again decided to dump snow and drop 20 degrees over the last few days. Apparently we are skipping Fall and going straight to Winter. 

{I HATE the snow! But it sure is pretty}

I hope everyone is feeling better and the weather clears up by tomorrow because we are suppose to be heading to the pumpkin patch. 

So, what are everyone's cold and flu remedies?? 

October 1st

Happy October 1st everyone!! Halloween is in the air over here with Pumpkin flavored everything and Hocus Pocus on repeat

{yes he is brushing his teeth...it's the only way he would sit still for a picture}

Now that it's almost Halloween I'm on the hunt for Ryder's costume. The stores are already picked over so I might have to order online. Guess I should have gotten it sooner! What is everyone dressing their kids as??
I don't usually dress up too much for Halloween so these Halloween Leggings or Skull Leggings will be perfectly festive for me.  

Our nice little snow storm has passed so we have been enjoying a little warmer weather. I love summer nights but crisp Fall evenings are the best.

Happy October everyone! Let the festivities begin....
