Might be a crazy life...

but (as Kate Gosslin says), it's our life. The weather has been wonderful...nice and cool and rainy. My kids love rainy days. I was trying to hold off and have grammie get them rainboots for Christmas, but the weather wouldn't permit it and we were at Costco and of course, they had rainboots front and center.

Pumpkin patch










Cal Poly Pomona has the BEST, I repeat BEST pumpkin patch ever and it is very cheap which adds to the capital BEST:) 5 huge pumpkins for 20.00. Kettle Korn, bounce house, horse rides, food, booths, you name it. Our 1st year going we had no idea what to expect. It was 105 degrees, Kate was about a month old and Hannah was a roaming toddler. We brought plastic grocery bags. Seth and John were carrying them, their hand were losing blood flow, I was sweating with Kate bjorned to my chest, it was miserable. Each year we get better and better. We loaded up the wagon, snacks, strollers and us. My mom went with us. The weather was perfect. A little misty at first, but dried up real quick. The kids had a great time and I just followed them with my fountain diet coke and kettle korn! We ended up with 5 perfect pumpkins and some corn for dinner tonight. I do not enjoy Halloween, but seeing the girls so excited to pick their pumpkins puts a smile on my face!
