Punkin' Patch

Lane had his first school field trip this year. We went to a local pumpkin patch. He enjoyed the petting farm a lot. He made buddies with a goat. Later he and his friends found a sweet fawn to talk to. The funniest thing I saw, though, was the rooster with a blonde mullet! These are some pix from the big day.

A Bit Late, but Here's Halloween Stuff...

For Halloween, Lane wanted to be a robot. He and I made a trip to Home Depot for robot supplies. He was super proud of how awesome his costume turned out because he helped make it. I must say, he was a big hit at our church Trunk-or-Treat. So many people said that it was a very creative and great costume. Lane just beamed with pride, and I was so happy for him! His friend, Sean Patrick, is in this pic with Lane.

Reed dressed as a friendly ghost for Halloween. I'm suddenly big on cutting t-shirts to make other things/clothes. This was about as easy as dressing him in a white sheet, but he could see where he was going - a big plus for a little ghost! I had always wanted to be a ghost for Halloween, but the person in charge of making me a costume couldn't get past the part about not being able to see where I was going. So, alas, I was always a witch. Is anyone suprised? I thought not.

Reed's big thing at Trunk-or-Treat was the lollipops. Every trunk he visited that gave him a sucker, he thought he needed to open it immediately and eat it. I do mean EVERY time. We were picking up slobbery lollipops all night. Guess that tells you who the real SUCKERS were! Reed's friend, Chase, is in this pic with him. He was a very cute Robin Hood.
