Sneak Peak

The kids couldn't help but try their Halloween costumes on. Here's a little sneak peak of my little brood.

Arrrr Matey

My pirate and Ghost buster

So fitting.
Sometimes she's an angel. Sometimes a little devilish.

Ooops. No pick of Xander. He's being a grim reaper.

October Craft

Here's my dangles for the month of October.


Farmer Boy

October is always such a busy month for me that my blog really suffers. I apologize for that.
But, here's some cute pics of my little Farm Boy.


I'm such a good mom, I let my kid crawl in the tractor.

Ok, this isn't my 'kid' but, I do spend many mornings chasing after these goats to put them back in their area. The stinkers figured out how to jump the fence.

On another side note, I learned how to drive the tractor today. Now that will real impressive on a resume!

Talents

The other day I was working on a craft and Dawson exclaimed, "Mom, crafts are a great talent of yours." I smiled and thanked him. Then I asked him what some of his talents are.
He enthusiastically declared, "Saying prayers and being loud."
He nailed those talents right on the head.

Yee Haw For Hee Haw Farms

Once again it's October and that means another year of working at Hee Haw Farms. I love this crazy time of year. My days start early and keep on going and going. Lately my days go something like this, Get up, get kids ready. Get kids out the door for school. Get myself ready. Get Sawyer ready. Head out the door for the farm by 8:30-8:45. Work at the farm all day. Sawyer plays all day. Leave farm about 2:30-3:30. Depending on when the last field trips leave. Come home, do homework with kids, Make dinner, head out the door for some type of gymnastic related thing. Come home, bathe kids, read scriptures, have prayer, me take shower, Pass out by 9:30. Repeat the next day.
And I wouldn't trade the craziness for anything.
Saturday morning I headed down to the farm to work for a couple hours. Tyler brought the kids down to play while I was there. I made sure he also had the camera. Yippee for a hubby that takes pics for me. Another big yippee for a hubby that is willing to take 4 kids to farm to play by himself. Let's be honest, 3 of the kids run around without supervision. And every day Sawyer runs around that farm by himself for 5 hrs. He comes and finds me when he needs a something. He usually needs me to dump the corn out of his shoes. Other than that, he knows where his lunch box is and where is sippy cup is, so he's set. (He wears a matching Hee Haw Farms shirt like me so know one mistakes him)
The kids all had a blast playing yesterday.
Here's a rundown of all the fun things they did.

Tractor Fun!

Playing in the giant corn box.
I will find corn in everything for the next month.

Hayrides and animal train rides.

Petting zoo and pig chases.

Climbing and sliding.


Picking pumpkins

Making new fuzzy friends and memories.

Spending the day together as a family = priceless.
