Field Trip

Emma had her first school field trip to the pumpkin patch.  Sadly, neither mommy or daddy could make it, but Mimi & Papa came up to go with her.  Here is a picture of Emma playing with her classmates while waiting for the hay ride:

Disney Live!

Mommy and Daddy got tickets to Mickey's Music Festival.  The girls had a wonderful time!

Random Sarah

Sarah is becoming such a big girl.  Last week she took her first swimming lesson without mommy in the pool, and she did great:

And the child refuses to nap in her bed anymore.  But put out her little couch in front of the tv and she immediately crashes:

Pumpkin Patch

We took the girls to the pumpkin patch today.  Boy did they have a good time:

Working together to sweep the pigs in the pig race:

 Pony rides:

Riding the wagon to the pumpkin patch:

 Climbing the hay bales:

Feeding the goats:

Back home decorating pumpkins.  Mommy found a new way to decorate, melting crayons on the pumpkins:

 Turns out pretty cool, but makes a huge mess, which made the kids love it all the more!

Science

Sarah has begun her science classes at the museum.  She had a great time this week learning about bones:

Here she is playing in the milk table, because calcium makes healthy bones:

 Making play-doh bones:

 Playing with the floppy hand, because it had no bones:

Fun with Kayla

Aunt Stephanie & Cousin Kayla came to visit a few weeks ago.  Mommy, Emma & Sarah went to stay with them at Mimi & Papa's house for a day to play.  The girls had so much fun:

Apple picking

A few weeks ago, we went apple picking.  The girls had fun, and we got some very yummy apples!
Riding the tractor out to the apples:

 

Emma spent most of the time riding in the wagon eating the apples.  The doctor will stay away for a LONG time given how many she ate:
