Pumpkin Patch 2015

Updates on Clifton -
This boy loves to create.  You give him scissors, paper, crayons, and glue he is entertained for hours.  He also loves writing.  He is trying so hard to sound out words but often misses hearing the vowels.  We have been working on that but it's a hard one to learn when he doesn't hear a vowel in the word.

Updates on McKay -
She and I had a good week with little melt downs and tears.  I am trying so hard to find things that McKay likes to do.  She and I are different, but we have found baking, just simply playing at the park, getting a treat together, shopping, visiting the pet store, reading books together, etc...

Update on Stanley -
His personality is shinning more and more each day.  He is so fun and crazy.  He sure fits in this crazy family :)

These are the faces he makes the most.  He is always amazed by things and makes his "oh" face.  Then his stink face... just love it!

Monday for FHE we decorated cookies.

Or for Stanley eating cookies.

Alex was out of town for work this week so we made sure to keep ourselves super busy.

 Swimming with friends.

 Kids got new hair cuts!

 Visiting the pet store.. I really want to get McKay a pet of some sort.  She LOVES animals.

 Out to eat for dinner.  Stanley stole my sandwich!

We got to have our friends come play with us Wednesday and did preschool with all the kiddos.  I miss teaching Clifton and Baylee.

Friday Alex was back and we were ready to have fun as a family.

Miracle Ranch harvest festival.  This event gets better and better each year.  I sure love having things like this to do.

Saturday we went to pick out our pumpkins.

He was amazed by all the pumpkins :)

 My little pumpkin!

 "It has a bottom!"

 Watching us sling shot water balloons.

 Tree swing!

Tractor ride.

Farmer Stanley!
Luckily we got in all our fun before the kids got sick.

This is what we do when the kids are home sick.  Cuddle, watch tv, and take funny pictures.  Hoping this sickness passes quickly.
