Pumpkin Patch 2016!

I always look forward to visiting the pumpkin patch with the family. It's a fun kick off to the holiday season for me. 
We're so lucky because we've found one that is a gem! It has so many unique activities and has definitely become a tradition for us. 
 Daniel showed them how it's done on an old school tree swing!

 Hmmm.....what to choose. What to choose?








 Taking turns...



 Hikes through the forest!

 Secret tunnels and slides!

 They were so cute waiting for the steam train to come. 

 Oh my! Look at this beautiful smile!


 She's growing up...
Normally we eat corn dogs but their stand was out of service so we did the next best thing. Dickey's BBQ joint has easily become a family favorite for us.

I will keep going to this pumpkin patch as long as the girls let me. I know they'll have fond memories of our visits.

Wild Kratts!

So Morgan is addicted to this show called Wild Kratts and I love it because she learns so much about animals by watching it. This girl has memorized every fact stated on every episode so when I found out the Kratt Brothers were coming to town to do a live show, I knew I had to get the girls tickets. Morgan still to this day blows me away with her knowledge of animals and nature. Today in the car she was speaking about animals using words like predators, prey, mating, Gila Monsters, Ring Tailed Lemurs, Madagascar, Fossas (the only predator of Lemurs in Madagascar apparently). Sometimes I have a hard time keeping up!
Morgan picked out her headband and shoes. Actually she had on different shoes before we left the house and it wasn't until we arrived to the event that I noticed she had on flip flops. I'm not a big fashion person and am super casual but I still talked to her about how flip flops were inappropriate when dressing up to attend a nice theater. Of course in the end, it doesn't matter. We had a fun time.
 The theater where the show was held was gorgeous!




The girls had a blast! I love exposing to them to any kind of "arts" I can.

The lighting was awful for pictures but these are too cute not to share. I feel like I've aged so much since these pictures were taken. I think that's what owning your own business for the first time will do to a person lol!

Random Pictures!

Daniel and I at a work function. We're cute. :)


See, this is why it's not good to be so behind on posting...I have no idea why I was taking these pictures. However, they sure are cute of my school girls.

 Walks around the neighborhood...
 My girls love picking me flowers and insist on putting them in water as soon as we get home.

Haircuts!

Their hair gets so long between cuts! I only take them about once a year. I can't help but take pictures of haircuts as if it was their very first time.

This may have been the very last of her platinum blonde hair. She's still surprisingly somewhat blonde though. We thought for sure she'd only have brown hair by this age.
Love the ringlet at the bottom.


Oh to be 4 again!
