Family Night Fun and a Preschool Repeat

Cameron had Columbus Day off work and the weather was a lot warmer than it has been so we took advantage. The boys spent the day finishing the shelves in the garage - not only do they look awesome but they hold SO much - and I finished sorting through my winter and maternity clothes - and determined that I HAVE to go shopping :) - and did some laundry.
We had planned on heading to Boise afterwards but we got carried away in our work and ended up not finishing until almost 5:00. So we headed to Smokey's Pizza (the only good non-fast food resteraunt here - believe me, I'm not exaggerating) and then went to a corn maze and pumpkin patch out by Bruneau Sand Dunes. It was cute and inexpensive and we had a great time just hanging out together.

I loved how they all celebrated when they got to the top




We ran around in the hay and picked out pumpkins. Then we ran around in the hay some more. The older boys led the way while Isaac entertained us during the hour we spent in the corn maze (yes, I just said, "hour". Thank goodness it wasn't dark, seesh!) He made up songs {Oooby doo... dooby doo... laudy doo}, gave us a play by play of what we were seeing {coin, big coin, pop coin, coin, coin, pop coin}, told us what different animals say {before he says an animal sound he says, "what 'bout the hoise say" or "what 'bout the boid say"} and pretty much jabbered non-stop the whole time {"wuv oo Daddy. Daddy's bubby (buddy)...no Mommy's bubby...no Daddy's bubby... no Zaustin's bubby....no Nandon's bubby..."}

The next day we went back with Austin's preschool class. We left with a couple more pumpkins, a ride on the tractor, straw covering our coats and gloves and corn and wheat in the kids pockets and shoes. And holes in both kids' pants. Now that's the description of a boy's paradise...

I love that picture of you and Isaac! This age is so fun, their little personalities are so wonderful and you just want to catch it all. Your descriptions are great! I'm feeling the same way about Luke, "How can I capture the funny kid he is now?!" And that pumpkin patch is so wonderful! The one we went to last year here just disappointed, but the options are pretty limited here. BOO HOO!!

Just so you know, I have three inches of root grow-out because I am still in denial that I have to find someone to replace your hair-mastery perfection! So sad!

You look so cute! I'm getting so excited to hear what you're having! I'm sure not as much as you are! The boys are getting so big! I can hardly believe it! It's been way too long since I've seen you!
