Trick or Treat!

I know it's a little sad, but on the last day of Halloween, (I swear it lasts a week here), we finally cornered David and took and a picture of him in his costume. Dave LOVED being Peter Pan. And I thought he looked rather adorable.
His favorite part of the costume of course.. the sword. Mom's favorite part, it doesn't get much easier or cheeper than cutting the edge of t-shirt and making a felt hat.

Dave designed his own jack-o-lantern this year. He drew the face, Jason scooped the guts (I tried to get Dave to but he thought it was 'not a good idea', and I tried to cut the face as exactly as possible.

Pretty cute if you ask me.

Happy Halloween!

Someone is 3!

David had his 3rd birthday! Yeah! (and scary for me, that's just too big). He had a monster birthday party complete with monster cupcakes. What a crazy kid... I don't know if I've ever seen him so wild. (Well, except when he's wrestling with Dad). Happy Brithday DAVID!!!

the Pumpkin Patch

We visited the pumpkin patch with friends again this year and had a great time. We literally spent the whole day there. We went on tractor rides, picked a pumpkin, Dave played in the corn pit, pet the goats (always a favorite of his), tried out a corn maze, had a peddal go-cart race, and totally enjoyed a beautiful day outside.

A New Blog!

Ever since my sister-in-law Jaime moved away (we've lived a few doors down for the last couple years), we've been in serious need of a good way to share ideas again. Soooo we decided to start a blog and thought you might like to see some of our ideas too. The blog is Everyday Art and we're starting out with a sort of fall theme. There might be decorating ideas like this....

and pictures like this..

and recipes for yummy things like this...

You'll just have to look and see to find out!

Apple Orchard

This year our family went to a near by apple orchard. The weather was perfect. It was so fun! David LOVED picking the apples (and getting pulled in the wagon of course). And I loved the apple pie that came a couple days later- yum.
