Maze and Liberty

Recently for Family Night we went to our land to spend the evening. Owen decided that he and I should stay in the car, but the kids and Barry enjoyed the evening gallivanting around.



 They came back to say "HI" every once in a while.

Poor Lauren, still suffering from a stomach bug came back several times for the wipes ...and the shovel. :)





 When it started to get dark, they lite a fire and turned into Wild Indians. IT was quite the sight to see. :D















 CSI Corn Maze. Daddy had to work late at the maze, so we got a pizza at our favorite pizza joint and ate it for dinner in the parking lot. Then Daddy took them through the MAZE. 


 break!






 IT was pretty eventful, because they got lost, and apparently Lauren was still not yet over her stomach bug. Good thing they planted the corn late so the leaves were still green and nice and soft.  ;) 
Luckily, Owen and I were at the DI picking out some nice, new-to-us books to read so we missed out on THAT adventure.





 Pumpkin carving. I believe I already posted a picture of the finished product.





IN October we were able to visit my good friend Carli, and her family. It was great to see the beautiful place she lives and see her little homestead in the mountains.









 Ellie was super impressed with the goats.

Hair Loss and Magic Show

 Now that it has grown back, I can post these pictures and not cry.
One day in Owen's bath when he was about a month old, he had a sticky spot on his head, probably from a sticky kiss, so I rubbed the spot with a wash cloth. His hair totally rubbed off. Then I noticed a whole bunch more was coming off too. He looked pretty old-man-ish for a few weeks. Made me want to cry to see him lose his beautiful baby hair. 









 Froggy legs! They've chunked up a bit now!



 One Saturday, we were given free tickets to a magic show.


 There was the cutest ticket taker at the door.
 Emma brought her purple treasure chest ....but forgot her pants.
 Stage Curtain
 Audience Seating







The tickets were FREE after all. ;)

He's smart too. He was very suspicious of the doctors office and he had a right to be. 2 month immunizations.
