Pumpkin Pickin

What a PERFECT day to go punkin pickin!  We were kinda disappointed in the selection at the farm...in fact we left without buying any!  They were all rotten or green but we had fun looking and I had fun taking pics.  They had lots of other fun stuff to do too, as you'll see!  

 Sara, Justin, and Eli joined us too!

 I promise this was a pumpkin patch, not watermelon farm...but there sure were a lot of green pumpkins.

 Tony and mini-Tony

 This is an accurate representation of our life.  These boys are everywhere, all the time.

 Once we took the hayride back, we let the kiddos have fun with all the extra stuff they had...like the water races...

and this giant ball....(it was a hit)

We also found a bunch of beautiful ORANGE pumpkins in a different field but we weren't sure if they were for sale or not so we just took some pics....

 Then we did the tennis ball catapult...

and checked out this OLD bus...

 played with the parachute...

and got in the corn box....

 Vince made corn angels...

 We left without any pumpkins but we have a Church with a pumpkin patch stand right by our house so we stopped and grabbed a few really good (and way over priced) ones...

Its finally starting to cool off....

Now that its not a million degrees outside, we've been hanging out in the back yard a lot....I'll do anything to get some energy out of these kids!  They love just to run around and chase each other...

 And go down the slide of course...

 But Big Brother thought it would be fun to show little brother how to go down head first on his tummy....

 Yeah, it didn't end well.  Face plant!  Don't worry, he was fine...just mad at himself....

 See, all better....just brushed off the dirt :)

 This kid is a hot mess but so stinkin cute.

I should've titled this post, "I'm too lazy to get up and get my iPhone cord" otherwise there would be lots of other Instagram pics....maybe this weekend!  I should have PUMPKIN PATCH PICS to share tomorrow!  I freaking LOVE THE PUMPKIN PATCH!  

Touch a truck

We went to the annual Touch A Truck at RIR a few weeks ago.  Basically they have trucks of all kinds (dump trucks, tow trucks, ambulances, police cars, tractors, etc) and kids get to get in them and check em out.  It is such a good idea and would've been completely awesome....had it not been 95 degrees in October.  We were all drenched in sweat (lovely mental picture, right) after only being there about an hour.  Anywho, here's a few of the pics I did manage to get before giving up on the camera idea.

The boys in the ambulance

 And the police car...

 Wait, Dom.....shouldn't you be in the back? :)  kidding....kind of....
