October...

We went out to the Spiral Jetty for new family pictures.  Really happy with how they turned out. The girls had fun running around and going out to the water after. The water was so low it took us about 10 minutes to get out there, worth it though. We found some salt crystals and the girls had fun!




 So beautiful, we love driving out there and definitely don't go enough!
 Picked pumpkins out of Grandpa Pete's little pumpkin patch!
 Went to a corn maze.  This was hilarious and a lot of fun! Quincy just wanted to hide in the corn and try to scare her dad. Halia just picked up the corn and picked all the kernels off....the....entire....time!! Reminded me of the Curious George episode when he goes through the corn maze. Maybe that's why she did it....?
 
 Quincy's school puts on a pumpkin walk every year. I love it, it is such a cute tradition. This year the theme was Storybook Village. Quincy's class chose "Miss Nelson is Missing".  She had fun making her pumpkin look like half Miss Nelson and half Viola Swamp, with a little help from mom. It is so fun to go and see all the fun things children and their parents come up with there were some pretty fancy pumpkins...makes me kind of mad I didn't take pictures of them.
 I put this scary child on our porch, Halia wouldn't go out our front door without crying. She was afraid of it, and it made her really upset that it was wearing her clothes. :)Tony gave me beautiful flowers for our anniversary, they lasted longer than any that I have ever gotten it seems like.  Quincy has been practicing like crazy with her bow and getting pretty good! My parents had the annual Halloween party for the grand kids. We played pin the mustache on Grandpa, he doesn't look thrilled, but the kids got such a kick out of it.....might be a new tradition!  He was a good sport and is a awesome Grandpa!
 Our pumpkins this year... The Beast, Ursula, and Olaf.
 Happy Halloween from Elsa and Dorothy!!
