A Pumpkin Patch and Halloween 2012

We visited yet another pumpkin patch recently!  I got some really cute pictures but they weren't really into the pumpkins.

 

Last night we had Halloween!  Emma and Levi had a blast. I don't really think they understood why we were going to all of our neighbors houses but they sure had fun and they looked so adorable!!!!!

Here is a picture from last year to refresh your memory of what they looked like last year.

 

 

 

Cute little skeletons! My what a difference a year makes! Introducing Mickey and Minnie!

 

 

I mean really! Have you seen anything cuter? I just love them so much!

Off to the clubhouse!

 

 

And the outtakes!

 

 

 

I hope you all had a safe and happy Halloween! Mickey and Minnie did!

So What Wednesday

I've taken a break from So What for a few weeks but we are back saying so what to lots of things. So here is what I am saying so what to today.

 

 

So what:

- If I stayed up way too late the other night watching a giraffe give birth

-if I had already packed up my kids summer clothes and am having to pull them out because it is hot again

- if I desperately need some winter clothes

-if I am already planning Emma and Levi's second birthday

-if I am dreading a 7 hour car ride with the babies. Praying it goes smoothly

-I am so ready for this election to be over

-if I am obsessed with the new Taylor Swift song! 

-when I check the mail I only get out the catalogs and leave the rest in the mail box

 

 

So go link up and share what you are saying So What to this week!

 

Pumpkin Patch

On Saturday we made our annual trip to the pumpkin patch. We tried out a different pumpkin patch this year. It was OK but I think the babies enjoyed themselves. So without further ado here is a picture overload of our pumpkin patch trip.

Dallas Aroboretum

Recently we made our way to the Dallas Arboretum.  Unlike last year we had a great time.  If you are new here or just want to catch up you can read about our trip to the arboretum last year here. It was not so much fun. But I am happy to say this year we had a great time. 

We left our house around 9:30 and headed to the Arboretum. When we got there we had to wait in a long line because ofcourse we chose to go on Columbus Day when a lot of the local schools were out for the day.  Even though it was crowded we had a great time.

 

The babies (yes, they are still my babies) had an awesome time exploring the pumpkin patch and loved picking their own tiny little pumpkins. We then walked around and explored the Chihuly exhibit. It was gorgeous. I highly recommend going to see it if you are in the Dallas area. 

 

Finaly we sat down for a picnic lunch. Let me rephrase that. The adults tried to sit down while running around chasing the kids who refused to sit and eat lunch!  After that it was time to head home with two tired babies!  We had a great day and I look forward to making this a yearly trip!
