Andrew follows Michael into the pumpkin patch. We picked 3 great pumpkins. The farmer also gave us 2 green pumpkins to eat - tasted like squash - YUM!!! Also had some great apple cider. A great day!!!!



First we stop to see some animals. Andrew loved it!!! So did Michael - he thought the chicks (baby chickens!!) were cute!!


The hay ride to the pumpkin patch



It was cold so the bees were huddled together to stay warm. My little pumpkin by the pumpkins!!!



At the pumpkin patch picking pumpkins. It was cool so we just took a few pictures before putting on sweatshirts.


Michael pitching to Andrew - ready for the World Series!!! Go Yankees!!!!! (Since the Mets aren't in it this year we all cheer for the Yankees)



Cold day so we had to dress warm. The bear suit was a little snug but it kept Andrew nice and warm. Michael's sweatshirt was a little big.


Catalogs have started arriving for the Christmas season. For some reason this cheese catalog captured Michael's attention. He loved to look at it. Both he and Andrew love cheese.


Andrew dunking his cookie in milk. I was so proud!!! You can also see our new kitchen table and chairs from Ikea. Old chair is there because 1 chair was missing a hole so Bryan couldn't put it together. Got a new one so now all 4 chairs match.


Michael and Andrew washing dishes

Andrew after his haircut.



Michael with his new haircut - very short

Tuesday, October 13, 2009


Michael cut his hair - he said it was too long. I think he is telling Andrew his hair is getting too long, asking if he wants a haircut...



Getting ready for fall and Halloween....golf is still fun in the fall



Michael vacuum the car, Andrew checks to make sure the chair works.





Lots of fun at the museum!!!




And we saw a trailer for the movie and how they make the movie - first 3D movie for Michael and Andrew (but Andrew had a snack during the movie so I guess it doesn't count).



We went to see the Disney Christmas Carol Express train - way cool!!!



Andrew decided to do some work to help out - so he vacuumed up the soap bubbles



Michael washed the windows for me, Andrew supervised.


Two sleepy boys relax before bad with some milk after the big party
