Trip to the Apple Orchard

The apple lady was very annimated. She loved her job and it made it that much more enjoyable for us.

Here is P with his teacher.
After a hayride and picking the gourds (my personal favorite) and apples we tried some of their cider. The weather cooperated and everyone was in good spirits.


Later that day I took the boys back to pick their pumpkins. They chose the biggest pumpkins in our history of pumpkin choosing.. We carved them with friends Friday night. Payton drew a frankenstein face and Parker insisted on a third eye for his traditional pumpkin face. No one vomited while cleaning out the inerds. It all turned out lovely.








We think Sunflowers are drooping because they are sad to see summer go.

Remembering...............I wish for a time machine for one reason only. I want to go back and hold my little ones and rock them to sleep again.

My Hero

A force to reckon with.

Cheeser Face













John gave them the nickname "Cheese-face" and they are living up to it here.


My little Peter Pan


where did my baby go?

Cedar Point

Waiting for the park to open and tossing around the football.
Meet the totally adorable Kyle and Kristin.





Waiting at the cheese on the stick booth. Johnnys favorite.

Awe, Ride pal's





The very first ride that Parker went on was the Millenium Force and now that I look back on it I was completly insane for letting him ride it. Like I am actually gonna let some amusement park tell me when my child is tall enough to ride one the of the largest roller coasters in the world. I don''t even remember the ride. The whole time I was trying to stretch my arm to hold him in. After we got off someone asked if he was gonna ride it again and he said "Not today". My poor baby was scared poopless. Every ride after that in the snoopy area was "so wimpy". Now he is a roller coaster expert.











Can't wait to test the rides out themselves.







There was a Halloween theme going on that my kids despised. They hate the horror stuff. We missed out on TgI Fridays because they put a decaying corps at the entrance of the resteraunt.
Way to go!!!! Can't advertise to be family friendly with stuff like that. Hello marketing.
