Pumpkin Carving


We carved pumpkins Sunday afternoon. Graeme drew the faces on each pumpkin and Jeff and I each carved the bigger ones.

Trunk or Treat with Woody and Buzz


We had "Trunk or Treat" at Graeme's school last week. We opened our trunks, decorated them and handed out candy to all the kids as they made their way around the parked cars.

Graeme's 4th Birthday Party






I can't believe my little baby is 4! He had his friend birthday party over the weekend. We had 5 kiddos which was a perfect number of preschoolers at our house. He has made some friends at his school and of course, his beloved Megan came too.
We had a pinata because Graeme loves to take anything that resembles a golf club or bat and swing so he loved it. I eventually had to rip it open because they didn't hit it hard enough.
He had a Thomas cake. They had discontinued the Wilton Thomas cake pan so I had to get creative and take another route. He liked it which is all that matters.

OU/Iowa State road trip




Jeff went to the OU game with Joel and the 3 boys. Note Jeff wasn't the only OU fan in that bunch! Graeme was very upset he wasn't going. We took him to the pumpkin patch instead. It was a very stressful game but at least we ended up with a win!
Taylor tossed the football with Graeme. He is getting very good at catching any type of ball. He had a great time with all the boys.

Pumpkin Patch in Iowa





Lynn and I took the kids to a pumpkin patch in Iowa. It was so much fun and Graeme really loved it. He got to play in a bunch of corn kernels, ride on a tire swing, climb a haystack, and go down a huge tube slide. We also took a hayride and got some pumpkins and Iowa kettle corn. They have a tree farm there also. As we pulled in, you could see all the baby Christmas trees. It was a very neat place!

Orr Family Farm




We went to Orr Family Farm and each got a pumpkin to take home. Graeme enjoyed the hayride.
