Pumpkin Pickin'

So we went pumpkin picking at a new place this year.

It was just a small family owned farm right down the road from us...but it was fantastic. It was the perfect place to go! Not a lot of people and cool pumpkins.

The kids had a blast!









First day of School

It went off without a hitch!

My big second grader!



My big kindergartener!


Where has the time gone?? When did they get so big?
But they had a great day and they love their teachers!!



Kid's New Pool Fun

Best $30 ever spent!! 
They love this thing 















4th of July

4th of July weekend was a busy one! 

Nick's family had family in from out of town so we spent time visiting. We cooked out and the kids went swimming.

All of the cousins got to play and Hannah got to spend the night with her 'cousin from Florida'. :o)




We also stopped by my parents house.

We made our own fireworks with paint. Thanks Pinterest! 





The kids really enjoyed it and had they not destroyed the toilet paper rolls they would have made more. **note to self--have more toilet paper rolls on hand. :oP

By the end of the day, the kids were wiped! They weren't really sleeping here but they are super cute! They are all getting so big!



Summer Fun

The kids have been enjoying time outside...playing with the water table, running thought the sprinkler, and slipping down the water slide.



The kids are really loving these water shooters that I got them. 


I got this water slide for $5 and I am now "the best mom ever!" :oD
