playing in the leaves

Here are the only pics I took while the girls and I were in MA. The girls did not have school on Friday, so we headed to MA Thursday after school. We went to the Amish grocery store, went on a walk, played outside. We kept busy! Mom and dad have a small pile of leaves that the girls found yesterday to play in.

Hannah's Fall Party

I helped with Hannah's class party Thursday afternoon. They did some fun games and crafts.

Here is her class!

Haydn's 1st preschool party

Policewoman brought her dog Woofy to talk to the class about rules of trick-or-treating.

Haydn gave Woofy a hug, I was alittle late in my picture taking!

Pumpkin carving

Tonight after supper we carved the girls pumpkins. Here Hannah is pulling out the "guts". SCARY FACE

Haydn scooping her "guts" out

Haydn with very little on her fingers. She didn't like how it felt.

Bucs game

Tonight the girls and I went to the Des Moines Buccaneers vs Sioux City Musketeers. It was a great game it went into overtime and then a shootout. Bucs lost 4 to 5. Haydn wanted to leave early, but I am glad we stayed for the whole thing!

Haydn wanted this picture?!

Fire Safety Month

the truck leaving school

At HTP today firemen came to talk about fire safety. The men and women showed the kids some of their equipment and talked about ways to protect yourself from a fire. The kids got to tour the fire truck and the police car as well. As the trucks were leaving they put their light and sirens on, I believe this was the kids favorite part of the visit!

Point of Grace Carnival

This afternoon Point of Grace Church (Haydn's preschool) had a carnival. They had face painting, crafts, inflatables, pumpkins for sale and games. The girls had a great time. It even seemed warm outside, today was to be 82! I will take it though, for snow will be falling before you know it!
