Halloween Preview

We did the pumpkin patch earlier this month. We also happened to be in the middle of a heat wave, it had to have been 80 degrees that day, but we made it through.

Peanut Butter liked peeking at the chicks.



She is this tall this fall.



I don't know if this kid had a thing for PB or what but he seemed to follow her around and kept trying to talk with her.



A hayride with Daddy.



And some pumpkins were picked out for carving much later in the month.



Peanut Butter decided after seeing How to Train Your Dragon a few weeks ago that she wanted to be Astrid from the movie for Halloween. I got my craftiness together and after fighting with my sewing machine and borrowing another here's how it turned out. Friends of ours' neighborhood does trick or treating the weekend before so, went out with them today.



In case you want to know what Astrid looks like:

A Getaway

J and I went to Indiana last weekend for our annual Notre Dame game. This year we went with another couple which was fun, but different. The fellas planned a spa day for us ladies and I had a stone massage. It was pure heaven. My legs were sore from running and the hot of the stones was pure bliss. I also had a mani and pedi, but they were forgettable. My mani smeared right away, but Peanut Butter loved the glittery magenta color I picked out when she saw it.
The weather was fantastic! A wonderful fall day.


It was funny as many times as we have been through the campus, I saw a few new things. I had never noticed this guy holding a shamrock in the chapel ceiling.



J and I really needed to getaway for a couple days, it was nice not having anyone say "Mama?" for 3 days.



And we actually got to see our first win. Touchdown Jesus was in the house.
