The Great Pumpkin Farm

There was an admission fee to enter this Farm, but there was so much to do!!!

Off to races!! (literally)

Morgan's ready to wave the checkered flag...

....for tiny pig races...

...and wiener dog races!

Getting a view from the top for some pumpkin launchers

and on to the next event!

Pumping the water to move the ducks down the half pipe

Leading the way in the corn maze

We made it out!

(At this point, Morgan is actually quite annoyed with us and is yelling at us rather than with us)

Going for a ride in the moo wagon.

Peak-a-boo!

Feeding the caged animals

Slip slidin away

Woooo!

For those of you that saw the Christmas card, this shot is old news.

The Hiatus

My apologies to everyone who has visited during the past 2 months of stagnation here...

I should have 17 or so blogs to come. I've looked thru the photos, it's just a matter of uploading them and speaking to them.

Here is a spider hat that Morgan made at school - Happy Halloween!

Chowing on some dessert following a dinner at a restaurant.

Missy's Old Phone - Part 2

9/24 - At Swamp Yankee Days - $1 for unlimited inflatable obstacle course - hurry!!

Scaling the cargo net...

...and face planting on the other side!

10/8 - At a birthday party of a classmate - 1st crack at a pinata

Make it pay!

Morgan had never been a face-paint kid. He'd rejected it plenty of times before, but he finally did his 1st one at a birthday party the weekend before, so he dove right into here

Bwahahaha

Who are those masked men?

Missy got a newer phone and in the process, she emptied pictures off of her old phone...the only thing wrong with this is, she's had that phone for awhile, yet the oldest pic that I got off of it was from Aug '11...who knows what pictures I/we have missed out on. :(

9/20 - Morgan in a swim lesson, on an underwater platform. I love it!

9/8 - Tossing some feed to ducks in the pond

9/8 - Getting closer with the ducks.

Summer Activity - Gymastics

Morgan took gymastics over the summer.

Here's some shots from the final session.

Starting off on the uneven bars...from here he flips up to the high bar, but I didn't get that on film.

Showing his agility, by weaving between the cones.

Doing some push-ups

Some work on the single bar...

Dribbling a ball down the balance beam to shoot a basket at the end.

Springing down the mat floor.

Bouncing down the long trampoline...

It was a fun summer activity! The fall activity - swimming!

Laying Some Logs

Here we are, getting ready to read stories before bed, while rallying the animals to settle down and listen.

Over the summer we had a neighborhood yard sale and one of our neighbors was selling a lincoln logs set. I never had a set, but Morgan got right into it and constructed the city below.

Stop by sometime and build with me!

Monster Jam

This post started out nice and simple, until I wasn't sure what one of the truck names was, so I pulled up the Monster Jam website to confirm it. Once I was there, I got what I was looking for and then some. They had a tab that said 'results', so I thought I'd confirm who won...then I saw a link for photos...at any of the trucks names below are professional photos from the event. I'm sure I'd have some nice looking photos too if I were on the other side of the fence...

Missy saw that Monster Jam was coming to Connecticut, so we picked up some tickets. It's come to Providence before, but it's an indoor show there and those things are LOUD. The flip side of that coin is...it was crazy hot in the sun at the outdoor show.
