Pumpkin Hollow

We were hot, sweaty, and exhausted by the time we got home, but Pumpkin Hollow was a fun success!

Cinderella and Minnie Mouse take Fall Festival

Fall Mornings, Fields of Faith, and Furniture

We've had beautiful mornings this week and have enjoyed throwing on whatever clothes and playing for awhile before lunch the past few days.

The WBC FCA hosted Fields of Faith a few weeks ago at Hoxie high school.  This was the largest crowd ever since the event started in Lawrence County.  I always get so teary-eyed and proud of these students!

During fall break, the girls spent 2 nights at my moms so I had 2 nights to myself.  I started by visiting my dear friend Courtney and meeting her triplets!!  Mom gave us her old guest room furniture, so I spent my break painting and turning Langley's room into a big girl room.  I didn't have room for the box spring and bed frame, so she is sleeping on a mattress on the floor, but she loves it!!  It sure beats the toddler bed that her feet were hanging off of!

And, just for bonus, Aubrey always looks so funny in time out.  Half the time she puts herself there or wants to join her in trouble.

They are Weird, but I love Them.

If I looked tired and annoyed...I was.

Surprisingly, Aubrey does well with the painting.  This keeps them entertained for awhile, but I have to watch them closely the entire time.

Just some pictures in their fall clothes.  

We always have to do a "'silly picture" these days.

The most embarrassing thing of my adult life - so far- is how these children yell "DADDY!!!!" at every male they see in public.  I took them both to WM on Monday and had a long list (I usually avoid this situation at all costs.) They called men of every size, age, and color daddy.  I was so embarrassed; I wished I was wearing a sign that said "they know their dad, they have the same dad, he lives in our house, I am married to their dad."  I mean how ridiculous is it to have to have a serious long talk about how we do NOT yell "DADDY" at anyone except your real dad, and that you know exactly what your dad looks like, and that you know if he is not with us, he is working?  They are so weird sometimes!!!  What in the world?!  

And, no that was not the first time they've yelled daddy at strange men in public, so I think (HOPE) I've put a stop to it!
