Halloween

Halloween this year was a great time. We ate chili, hung out with family and great friends, and most importantly scored tons of candy.  The weather was great, and the kids really enjoyed themselves.  Maddux was Scooby Doo, Mommy tried her hand at making her first costume, Graci was Laura Ingalls Wilder.

Carving Pumpkins

Pumpkin carving was interesting this year. We started by letting the kids draw what they wanted carved, that didn't work out so well, so we moved onto the stencils which are much harder than they let on. Graci loved digging out the guts and kept asking what were going to make with all her findings. Maddux wouldn't touch the inside of the pumpkin with a ten foot pole, surprise, surprise.

Uncle Keith's 50th

Uncle Keith's 50th was a fun fall day at the park. Music, food, friends, and family. It was a great celebration and made for some great fall pictures.

Eckerts Farm Apple and Pumpkin Picking

Oh Yes Fall is Here!!!  For the Younces that means a trip to the apple orchard for some fresh picked apples and a trip to the pumpkin patch for some fun and pumpkin pickin! This year we combined the two, ourselves and the Elliotts spent most of a Sunday afternoon at Eckerts. We got apples, pumpkins, and of course funnel cakes! The kids had lots of fun, they got to ride a tractor train, walk through a corn maze, saw a pig race, rode rides, I could go on and on. In short it was an awsome day.

DIng Dong the cast is GONE!!!

              This morning at 9am it came off. Maddux was a little wierded out by the way his leg felt without the cast, but got over it quickly. He has a brace that keeps his leg straight for the next four weeks. We still have to be very cautious, but we get to take the brace off for bed and baths! To celebrate we took him to Incredible Pizza Co.. Here he is with his favorite win, a blue baby brontosaurus.
