| Josh designed and carved (with some adult help) his own jack o lantern this year. He wanted something spooky, so he gave it three eyes. He's growing so fast. (Unlike our pumpkins, which I grew in our garden. I'm just happy we have any pumpkins at all, I don't mind if they're mini pumpkins.) |
 |
| What a sweet, proud face! |
 |
| Luke helped me design his own...very happy little boy. |
 |
| The final product. |
 |
| Have you ever seen a cuter Comando Soldier or Green Ninja? |
 |
| TRICK OR TREAT! |
 |
| Josh LOVED trick or treating! |
 |
| We trick or treated in our neighborhood with a bunch of a friends -- we had quite a fun group! |
 |
| Luke ran from house to house trying to keep up with his brother. No time for pictures, mom. |
 |
| But, he ran out of steam and got carried around by his strong daddy for the better part of our trick or treating. |
 |
| Josh's class was in great spirit -- black and orange day and crazy hair day all at once! |
 |
| This picture was the SCARY class picture -- I wonder what Josh is doing! |
 |
| Josh was dominating the pumpkin bowling center. |
 |
| This is the center I helped with -- we made October headbands. Josh was protesting something, but it's hard to take him seriously with that blue mohawk. |
 |
| After Josh's class party we went right over to Luke's class party. They spoiled Josh and let him sit next to his brother and get alllll the treats. |
 |
| This picture makes me smile - - the little pirate boy knew to wink when we said SMILE! |
 |
| The boys and I took advantage of the PIR days and went to Kalispell for my birthday weekend. Our first stop, only a few hours after we got to town, was this amazing pumpkin patch. |
 |
| Sometimes he poses willingly, I better enjoy these fleeting moments. |
 |
| The boys did a trike race in a straw path. Luke was not quite big enough...but he tried hard and had fun. |
 |
| Josh was just the right size/age -- he rocked that trike! |
 |
| Doesn't it look fun? |
 |
| Three little birdies |
 |
| They took a train ride while they waited for the double go cart -- more on that below -- I just think they are so cute together. |
 |
| Nice smile, Joshy. |
 |
| The big hit was the pumpkin pillow -- it was a cross between a trampoline and a bouncy house. They were maniacs on this thing! |
 |
| Luke was more measured with his bouncing and running, so I got a few pictures of him. I got very few of Josh -- he was full bore the whole time! |
 |
| It looked like so much fun I had to join in. It was a total blast! I was the only adult out there that wasn't protecting their toddler...they are missing out! |
 |
| I made the boys Bounce me...Luke thought it sounded fun. :) |
 |
| Then we were off to the go karts. They were pedal-driven, and a lot of fun. Josh was almost too small for them, but he did a zillion laps with them. |
 |
| Luke was too small to do them, so we waited (and waited, and waited) for the Double Go Kart, and then I gave him a ride. |
 |
| Josh convinced me that he could do it...so I let Josh take over driving miss daisy around. |
 |
| We were very sad to leave this place. |
 |
| If this isn't team spirit, I don't know what is! |

| Josh had been talking all week about the sno cone he would get at the game. You get to pick your own flavor, and it can be a mixture. So he schemed all week and came up with this concoction. Root Beer and Tigers Blood mixed with pop rocks. Oh yeah. |
 |
| We love the big pumpkin! I heard that it weighed over 500 lbs! |
 |
| This picture makes me smile -- a lot of real personalities in this one. |
 |
| Cutie faces |
 |
| What cute little kiddos, waiting for the cow train. |

And away they go!!
|
 |
| This is Josh's favorite part of the whole farm. He loves to jump! |
 |
| Nice tuck move. |
|
| He's unstoppable. |
 |
| Luke tried some jumping too. He was brave! |
 |
| Look at that form! |
 |
| The kids made a train through the pipe slide -- so fun. You could hear their laughter the whole way down! |
 |
| The walk through the corn maze was really fun. |
 |
| Luke is the happiest boy I know. |
 |
| These two are peas in a pod... |
 |
| Gramma and Grampa Wright were here this weekend and bought the boys new cowboy boots. Clearly they were the only shoe choice for back yard sword fighting this morning. I think Luke is beyond wise to wear the helmet. |
 |
| I tried to get them to hold still so I could get a good picture, but this was an intense battle. |
 |
| How could you take this -- the whole thing -- seriously? |
