Fall Fun

Fall fun is all around our house this time of year! Having fires in the firepit...

 ...and of course, S'mores!

 To raking a leaf maze in the front yard! Trigg put this together with the help of the neighborhood kids...pretty impressive!

 Then we made it into a big pile...

 and jumped till we were tired!

 We carved some pumpkins for Halloween!

 Cut the top to get to the guts!

G pulling open the top...

and the guts!

Trigg digging into his pumpkin!

GUTS!!!

Blythe carving her pumpkin

Focused on their work

G getting some help from Mom!

Trigg wanted to carve his pumpkin all by himself...he did a great job!

Garrett had a different idea for his pumpkin/jack-o-lantern

A football!

B's completed jack-o-lantern

Trigg's finished work...looks a little like him!

And lit up ready for Halloween!

Trigg wanted to be a Lego Man for Halloween this year...so I got to work with some carboard boxes and a cement footer tube. Mocked up and ready for paint!

Painted. I didn't like how you could see his eyes...so i took some old screen that I had an taped it inside the Lego head.

And we have ourselves a Lego Man!

Testing out the head

G wanted to try it too!

B wanted to be a princess...and we already had a Rapunzel dress, with temps dropping into the low 20's we bundled up for trick-or-treating!

Ready to roll; Lego Man, Rapunzel and Iowa Hawkeye football player!

It was freezing but we made it around the block and got plenty of candy!

What do you get when you cross a fish with an elephant....

Swimming Trunks!

Happy Fall
