Happy Halloween

Trick or Treat, Smell my feet, Give me something good to eat!

Well, the night the kids have been waiting for finally arrived. It's been a fun night of trick or treating.

Sophie and Ian also had fall party's in their classrooms this morning. See the pictures of them with their teachers.

Fall day at Cool Creek Park

I decided to take the kids for a nature hike at Cool Creek Park today after lunch. It was such a beautiful fall afternoon-sunny and ~60 degrees. We had fun searching for the brightest colored leaves, watching squirrels and birds. We saw a red bellied woodpecker and a blue jay today and the squirrels were in full force, we've never seen so many. We even came across a live black snake on the trail on our way to the nature center. Sophie thought that it was pretty cool but Ian wanted to get away as fast as he could. What a nice day it has been. I love spending the day outdoors with the kids and they love it too.

Fun Times at the Pumpkin Fest in Zionsville

Today we went to the pumpkin fest in Zionsville. The kids had so much fun. They were able ride a real pony, decorate a pumpkin, play in a pit of corn, play corn hole, do pumpkin bowling, dance to live country music, go through a corn maze, get their face painted, etc. So, needless to say it was a hit with them. Ian especially loved it...he continued to tell me all day long how fun it was.

We all worked up a good appetite and decided to go to Red Robin for lunch. They sang Happy Birthday to Sophie and she got a special birthday dessert. Great food and a fun experience for all!

Sophie turns 6

Well, it's been a big week. We celebrated Sophie's birthday at school on Wednesday since Th was a short day and Friday was off. Check out the photo of her and her classmates! They are so adorable. I dropped off cookies, suckers and blowout toys that made LOTS of noice....I'm sure all the mothers loved me:-)

Today, Sophie got to celebrate her birthday on her actual birth date. She invited a few of her friends to her "Mad Science" party and they had a blast. It was a special birthday indeed!
