October fun!

We seemed to keep pretty busy in October and so I thought I would post some pictures of what our family has been doing to enjoy this crazy fall weather. We began the month with the pumpkin patch. Notice it was nice enough for shorts!

We were lucky enough to find a day when all the cousins could go!

Ty taking his turn at the giant pumpkin sling shot!

Daddy and the kids enjoying the afternoon....

Tyler seemed a little overwhelmed with all the pumpkins....which one to pick???

Brynn found the perfect one!

OK....we are ready to go!

The weekend following the pumpkin patch we decided to first attend Eudorafest in downtown Eudora . The kids loved the parade. Notice this time we are in jackets and hoods.......yet only 6 days later!

Tyler waiting patiently for the parade...

I think he waved to every policecar, firetruck and ambulance that went by!

And even got to sit in a firetruck!

Later that morning we loaded up and decided to visit the apple farm in Eudora....just needed a quick snack to keep us going....

The kids both loved picking apples!

They had such a great time they couldn't wait to see where we were going next......dreamland perhaps??

Later that evening they decided to sit and rehash the wonderful day they had!!

(Notice Tyler's blanket - he is ready for a certain jolly old man to come down our chimney!)

Then the next weekend we decided to really bundle up and head to Lawrence for KU's homecoming festivities......this time we had to break out the winter coats, gloves and stocking hats!!

The kids LOVED the parade!! You should have seen all the candy!!

Baby Jay stopped to say hello but Tyler ran the other way as fast as he could! By the look on Brynn's face she doesn't seem so sure about him either!

I'll finish off with a couple pictures of the kids carving pumkins.......

What a wonderful October we had......
