Snow, Snow, Snow!

Gigi and Cousin Heather Come to Town

Chris' cousin Heather and his Mom came for a visit last weekend. It was great having them here. We had a blast playing with the kids and some mad Yahtzee games. We went to a local cider mill, Olivia played in the big wooden train they had. Heather desperatly wanted it to snow and it did, too bad it was the day after she left! Sorry, Heather! It was so helpful to have extra hands around. Thanks for coming, we miss you both!

Finger Painting

The other day I was feeling quit adventurous, so we finger painted! Olivia wasn't so sure what to do with it, but she figured it out in the end. Although she did eat more than she painted with!!

Our Morning

Waiting for Big Sis to finish up.

All Clean!

Clean and Warm Babies!!

Halloween Weekend

Chris' Dad came to visit for the weekend. It was great having him here. We spent Halloween at my parent's. Olivia got to trick or treat. Although she didn't really get the whole trick or treat idea. She was pretty content to play with her bag rather than ask for candy. She did however like her costume and had a great time running around in it after trick or treating.

Saturday the Gators played Georgia and to our family's delight (and weekend happiness) the Gators crushed the Bulldogs! Go Gators!! My Dad and brothers came over and Chris made pork carnitas (super yummy, thanks to the Hochstettlers for that!!) and we hung out all day, played lots of games and had an all around good time.

Sunday I got to rest a little while Chris and Tony took Olivia to the Henry Ford Museum. She got to play in the trains and check out all the cool airplanes and what not. It was a great weekend. Thanks for visiting Grandpa Tony!

Pumpkin Patch

Yesterday we went to a pumpkin patch. An actual real life patch! It was a go into the field and pick your own pumpkin kind of patch. The past few years we have gotten our pumpkins from the front lawn of a church in West Palm, so the patch was extra exciting. It was great to see Olivia get so excited too. Last year we had to prop her up on a pumpkin to get a picture. This year she took off through the patch to get her pumpkin. Tons of fun! She also had a great time riding in the wagon and as we went over bumps she would "oooh" and "aaaah"! It was her own little roller coaster.

Next on the agenda, carving and baking pumpkin pie. (We'll see how that goes, the baking that is.)
