On Wednesday the twins had their Halloween Party at school! They got to wear their costumes, go trick or treating at the church office and eat lots of goodies in their classroom and the best part of the day...daddy was there for all of it!

The cutest "monk-kee" you've ever seen!
The little "Prin-Prin" without her tiara!
So hard to get both of them to look at the camera!
Running to trick or treat!
Yummy food!

GO Bulldawgs!!

We went to MS State homecoming last weekend and Aunt Lani went with us! We hit the road during naptime and no one took a nap!! This made for one long day in Starkville!! They were troopers though and made it through half-time with only one meltdown each!
We hopped around to lots of our friends tailgates so the babies didn't have time to get bored! And of course we hit up the bounce house and got our picture taken with Bully! It was long exhausting day for all of us! They were awake for 13 1/2 hours and then slept for 12 1/2 hours that night!!
We ran into Logan next Bully!

A little down time and snack time before hitting up the bounce house with Ava Grace!


Eating PB &J for dinner!

The beginning of a meltdown!

Watching the jumbotron!

A few pics with Aunt Lani after church on Sunday!

Madison Heights at the Pumpkin Patch!!

Last weekend we went to the pumpkin patch with our friends from Madison Heights! So much fun!! We walked through the "petting zoo" and saw goats and pigs and turkeys and ducks...Then we went on a long hayride and saw more animals(cows, donkeys, deer and catfish!) before we stopped to find our pumpkins! We had a little playtime while pumpkin hunting and played in the hay maze, and corn box! Then is was time for a little snack and some special orange pumpkin juice!






At the end of the day...two hot and tired 2 year olds!!

I only skipped a month!

So I've been a little busy for the last month and completely forgot to post a thing!!! Wesley made it home Oct 6th after being gone for 5 weeks!And we hit the floor running trying to make up for lost family time and I had tons of art projects to get done prior to my art show on the 27th! So here is a little run down of the month of October!
We went to "A Day in the Country" at the Chapel of the Cross with our neighbor's the first weekend in Oct...this was a little overwhelming without Wesley. Chasing 2 two year olds in a very open area with lots of people was quite exhausting! Once I let them out of the stroller there was NO GOING BACK!! We had fun at the petting zoo, on a train ride, a quick picnic lunch and then on to the bounce house...I had to drag S.B. out of there by her ankles!!! I'm not sure who was more tired that day, but we all needed a long nap!







These are just a few pics after church one Sunday in our Pumpkin outfits!!




On the 15th Doc and Cheri came up and took us all to the "Pretty Cow Contest" at the fairgrounds. We walked around and saw the goats and all kinds of cows. And I think Sara Beth talked to almost all of them! We also went to 2 petting zoos before riding the Dumbo elephant ride! Our very first fair ride! They LOVED it!!!






On Saturday we headed back to the fair to meet the Coulsons...they had been there for quite some time before we made it so we rode one quick ride together before they headed home for naps...then we had lots of "firsts!"


First Roller coaster ride, first fair ride without mommy and daddy, first corndog(luckily they didn't like it!) It was a fun morning!!

Mitchell Farms

Last weekend we headed to Soso for one night so I could get a few things together for some art projects and of course to see the cows...oh and Doc and Cheri too! HA! On Saturday we decided to head to the pumpkin patch at Mitchell Farms in Collins...we weren't sure what to expect, but we had a blast! Unfortunately the cool fall weather didn't get here until Sunday, so we were soooo hot! I took so many pictures I couldn't narrow it down to just a few, here we go....
Cute little tractor...we LOVE tractors!


Sara Beth was talking to the goats in the "goat palace"

Happy Happy Turkey!

They couldn't quite figure out why they couldn't pet these animals...it is so easy to get to the cows at Doc's...these animals were all locked up!

They both had a big time sliding down the pipe slide!
Sara Beth of course had to spend a little time talking to this "a-mama cow"

We took a covered wagon/trailer ride around the property to see the fields of corn, sunflowers, squash, blueberries, peanuts...all kinds of yummy food! And we saw all sorts of "big trucks and tractors"(Mahlon's favorite) and ducks and geese(Sara Beth's favorite)

We skipped the corn maze because of the heat and the fear of losing Mahlon and Sara Beth...they are such fast runners! But we did pretend to be scarecrows!

There were all kinds of things to pick...we picked enough cotton to stuff a pillow!!
And of course they had to pick up almost every pumpkin there to find just the right one!


All of that picking makes you a little hungry! So we got a quick pick-me-up iced pumpkin cookie! Yummy!

Playing in the "pool of corn!" I have never seen anything like this...at first they were a little scared, but after a few minutes they were throwing corn everywhere and trying to walk in it...too cute!


Driving the John Deere just like Doc!

Who needs to pay for a petting zoo when you can just walk out of the back door at Doc and Cheri's and feed/pet your own cow! Sara Beth has named them, "a-mama" "a-dada" "a-baby" and she talks to them and tells them to eat corn and drink wah-wah(water) This was after nap time so they were energized and ready for more! Again Mahlon stood back and let her do all of the work!
