Cousin Fun!

My boys were so excited today when Brooke and Lindsay came over for a little visit. Mindy had a doctor appointment for her baby girl who is due in March. The cousins always have fun together so its great that we live just a few miles apart. Here they are eating their gogurts and fruit roll ups.



Notice how they are eating outside. It gets a little too scary for me when they are all eating at once in the kitchen.

Peter Pan

Logan just asked me " Mom does it hurt when God puts your wings on you in Heaven ?". I look at his concerned face and began to explain how we would not need wings in Heaven nor would we ever experience pain. However, I think that Kayla got through to him best when she reminded him that Peter Pan can fly without wings so maybe he could too in Heaven.

The Mikeys

Grandpa had a booth for Logan Pools at the Home and Garden show in Concord last weekend. Michael was happy to visit with him.

Happy Halloween!

Hometown Halloween

For those of you who do not live in Brentwood, Hometown Halloween is a time where the downtown area is closed off and local business owners set up booths and pass out candy to the children. This is a fun event but, a very crowded one. We usually arrive a little early, before it gets too busy. Logan and Michael love to get together with their cousins Brooke and Lindsay ( Adam and Mindy' girls ).




Afterwards, Grandma had a party at her house. It was so much fun. She had made spider sandwiches and a spooky punch!




Kayla and Grandma making carmel apples.




The tired bunch watching " Its the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown".

Smith Family Farm

Its a tradition. Every fall for the past four years we have visited the Smith Family Farm. Of course this year would be no different. We love this place and look forward to it every October.

The first thing we did was go straight to the barn and check what times the barn show would be open. Sure enough we got there ten minutes before the next show. Just in time to get front row seats.




Next, we were off the see the farm animals. Logan and Kayla were able to crush corn to feed to the chickens.




After lunch, we checked out the General Store. Logan was pleasantly surprised to find Shrek there.




Next, we hit the Corn Maze. I was a little concerned about losing Michael during this event. But, thankfully we only had to redirect him a few times after he ran in the opposite direction.




After the Corn Maze, we hopped on board the hay wagon for a ride out to the pumpkin patch.




Mikey hugged several pumpkin until he found just the right one!




Kayla's perfect pumpkin!




Logan told us all morning that he was going to pick a memeum (medium) pumpkin.




Just waiting for the next wagon to take us to our car.
