The Pumpkin Patch

We spent the morning at the Hillcrest pumpkin patch with the grandparents and cousins. Kids loved the steam train, the very bumpy hayride, and the wobbly bridge. After a picnic lunch we returned home for ice cream and pumpkin carving.

Lunch anyone?

With high hopes that by introducing rice cereal we might get a few more hours of sleep....well so far it has just proven to be a very messy (but in a cute way) sticky mess!

A New Meaning for "A Loss for Words"

As part of 4th grade homework there are plenty of word searches. Noah generally dislikes doing them so they become a family effort. Last night Matt was teasing Noah after he was in bed, that he had forgotten a word and that he needed to go back downstairs and find it. He let Noah sweat for only a minuet or two and then told him he was kidding.

Later that night we heard Noah talking in his sleep and Matt went in to check on him. He was sitting up in bed looking through his blankets. Matt asked him what he was looking for and he said he thought he saw some words from his word search in his bed, but they were gone now. Matt felt bad for teasing him, but it was very funny.

Fun at the Fair!






Wednesday afternoon we took the boys to the Big Fresno Fair. The weather was perfect and the fair wasn't crowed. We wandered through the agriculture buildings (Matt's favorites), checked out some cool rocks and fossils, played on the play structures, had good fair food (which probably wasn't so good for us), rode some carnival rides, and ended the day with some of those yummy cinnamon rolls. What a great family night!

Ready for Halloween!

The boys are so ready for Halloween this year. This will probably be the first of many pictures. For thoes of you not following Star Wars, Noah is Anakin Skywalker - Logan is Jango Fett, and Ethan is Yoda.

A Mess...


Matt and the boy's decided to install can lighting in our master bathroom this last weekend. Like all projects the bathroom looked a lot worse before it got better. Slate flooring is slated for the next week.

Dinasaurs rock!



For papa Marc's birthday (hes the one making dinasaur faces) he took all the grandkids to see walking with the dinasours. They had a great time! The boys couldn't stop talking about the dinasours when they got home-and of course Logan thought the dinasours poop was the funniest part of the whole show! He kept telling me it "it was as big as you mom" I guess that makes me a big poop!
