Fall Back

Since it's going to be close to 70 degrees out tomorrow I feel the need to do a fall recap.  I was feeling like I missed my chance when it was freezing and snowy last week!  So many fall/Halloween festivities...don't know where to begin!


Our new friend the praying mantis


Nick at the annual Easton Sheep Pasture Harvest Fair - so brave! 


Playing with our new friends/neighbors Maeve and Emanuela on a beautiful indian summer day


Carving pumpkins...once again, Daddy had the best ones on the block!


One of my favorite things that happened this fall is we got that huge, beautiful mum for FREE!!  Cuz the kid working the cash register at the apple picking farm didn't know how to ring it up!  Score.


Em's 9th family bday party.  So proud that this beautiful, smart and funny girl is our niece/cousin!


Nick the animal lover


A trip to Winslow's Farm and Animal Sanctuary with the Daley cousins


Weeeeeeeeee!



LOVE this picture!  They all have the same smile!


BFFs.  Uncle Pete kept walking ahead on the "spooky" trail and jumping out to scare the kids...the older ones thought it was the best thing ever



OK.  That's enough.  What time is it?  Pats on at 4?



Thank you for DESTROYING my beautiful FREE plant Mother Nature!!!  That pumpkin is so angry that he has snow and a plant on his head!




Sawyer's birthday party.  Of course we took 25 pics trying to get everyone to smile...yeah right!!!  This is my fave because Chelsea looks so darn cute. (Sophie, Christian, Maggie, Emily, Aiden, Chelsea, Nick, Charlotte & Sawyer)


Nick's farm field trip...pumpkin hunt!


Chrysanthi, Nick and Mikey


Silly kids...well, it was Mommy's idea to put the hay on their heads.  I always feel like I am going to get in trouble when I attend school events!  I totally made up for it when I sat criss-cross apple sauce with my hands folded in my lap during the sing-along.


Finally!  The BIG DAY!!!  They were BEYOND excited to go out trick-o-treating this year.  Such troopers wearing the mask and wig the entire time (hence Chelsea's being a sloppy mess since the crown keep getting tangled in it, so hard to be a princess).



And Tommy dressed up as a ferocious tiger...this cat followed us around the neighborhood like a dog the entire time we were out trick-o-treating.  What a weirdo!!!!
