Pumpkin Patch

We had a fabulous family outing to a great pumpkin patch. The Koons Hollow Farm included a huge corn maze, lots of cools things for the kids to play on, a hayride, farm train and of course a pumpkin patch. It was a warm beautiful day and we all loved it!!!

They are so sweet when they aren't fighting and competing!

The corn maze was really big and had ten different shaped hole punches that you were supposed to collect. After an hour Avery had had enough so she and Corey found their way out, but Kyler was determined to finish. 45 minutes later and still missing one punch Kyler decided we had done the best we could and was willing to move on.

This cow was so funny. It had a milk jug with rubber utters on it so the kids

could "milk the cow". Avery loved it.

This was a huge hay fort the kids climbed all over. It made be a little nervous because kids were jumping down from the top layers and I could just see Avery getting knocked out,

but all was well.

Kyler riding the "bull".

Kids think the craziest things are fun.

This was a huge trough filled with dried corn kernels

and the parents (including me) were having to drag their kids out

Kyler feeding the cows on the hayride.

This was the best pic I could get of the two of them,

they are the worst at getting their pictures taken but they still look cute!

Greek Festival

We went with two other families to a Greek Festival. The other families had been before and we really enjoyed it. There was a lot of good food, (the dessert was the best!), a live Greek band that the kids loved dancing to, lots of booths selling things and bounce houses and things the kids enjoyed.

Kyler loved the food and looked cool eating it!!!

This human hamster ball was the highlight of Kyler's night! He spotted this first thing and waited not so patiently to do it. Afterwards that was all he could talk about.

Fair Field Trips

The kids each took a school field trip to the Baker County Fair. This is a small fair but the kids enjoyed seeing an animal show and looking at the exhibits. Corey went with Avery and her class and Kyler and I went the the next day.

Pirate Day

Kyler had Pirate day at school and he was so excited. Kyler and Avery LOVE to play pirate and the pirate shop at Disney World is one of their favorite stops. As you can see Avery had to be in the pictures. After school Kyler was so excited to tell me all about the pirate party and all the pirate themed games they played.

Sandnats

Kyler has started another season of t-ball. After three seasons as a Mudcat he is now a SandGnat. We are really enjoying his new team and as always he loves being on a team! I hated it but I missed his first game because I had to take Avery to the Dr with a terrible ear infection, but Corey took some good pictures and they won the game.

NICE HIT !!!

Avery's 4th Birthday

For Avery's 4th birthday she wanted to go to the Build a Bear Workshop. The kids both had a great time. Kyler had a hard time making up his mind which animal he wanted, that's why the first few pictures have him with a camo bear and then later he went with an owl. Avery of course chose Hello Kitty to go along with her Hello Kitty party that was to follow.

After all the Build a Bear fun we had a small party with Grandma and Grandpa.

We celebrated Avery's Birthday on Saturday, but her actual b-day was on the following Monday. She had another fun filled day. It started with a donut breakfast (she only eats the icing off the top) and then she had cupcakes at school. We let her pick the restaurant for dinner and so we went to Five Guys Burgers and Fries, we think Avery picked that one because she loves to say the whole name of the restaurant really fast and then laugh.

I can't believe Avery is already four. She is such a sweet girl, who loves to help others and is always having fun! She is very very strong willed but she is getting easier to reason with and is loving pre-school. She is little miss social and loves playing with any kid she meets. Avery is a great blessing to our family!!!
