The Pumpkin Patch!

Well, we braved Vala's today! It was perfect! Nate and I came home with a little sun on our noses too! We had fun with our friends John, Lindsey, Lyla and Evie-Michelle, Ryland and Korina too! We had fun visiting Bunnyville, riding the choo-choo train, playing in the corn sandbox, jumping on the pumpkin pillows, riding the hayride to the patch and picking out our very own pumpkins! Enjoy the pics :)

Nate didn't like the pumpkin pillow, but the sand around it!

Benjamin being a gentleman and helping Lyla walk the beam. I'm so proud!

Nate, Mama and Ben trying to find the perfect pumpkins! Mama already has two perfect pumpkins and can't wait for the 3rd to arrive ;)

Ben thought this one was good...but then he said it was too heavy!

Nate was having a good time with our final picks!

We had a great Canadian Thanksgiving dinner tonight-with all the fixin's! Here are some pics!

The turkey that Ben ate made his muscles bigger, can't you tell ?!?!

Grrrrr...look at my big muscles!

Smiling and flexing--its hard work!

Making a snowman

So we went outside this morning to make a snowman since it was the 1st snow fall. We got about 3 inches of snow today. As you can see the boys had a lot of fun.





Winter IS Here

As you can see, winter has arrived in Omaha. I can't remember us ever having snow this early in the fall. We are going to build a snowman later this morning so I will be adding pictures later on but for now enjoy.
