My wonderful mom-in-law decided to make some cute cute candy corn outfits for her grand kids. The Sayers girls got dresses and the boys got ties. Don't they look SO cute!?!

Preston got an adorable candy corn t-shirt

And Ash got a very pretty candy corn skirt. Both kids love their new clothes and wear them over and over and over. Such a fun idea and thoughtful gift. :-) Thanks, Mama Call!!!

Last night I got to babysit Emily's girls. I love those girls so much! We had fun together and they had fun playing with Ashleigh too. Emily had a big tub of grape tomatoes...I couldn't stop snacking on them. I think I ate about 20 of them....But to make up for it I emptied and loaded her dishwasher, and washed her stove. lol. I figured I had to be somewhat useful since I ate so many of her tomatoes. Mmm they were Good! :-)

When Em got home we watched a video of Ashleigh and Bridget when they were 2 and 3 yrs old in their little pageant and I helped Em fold some of her laundry and we just chit-chatted. It was so nice. Like old times. :-) Love ya Em.

This morning I took the kids to Bizi Farms (Pumpkin patch). It took us forever to find a parking spot and then we got a primo spot. There was literally no line to get our tickets and get inside. We went straight to the face painting. Preston didn't want anything done, so it was just Ashleigh that got some art on her face. :-)

Cute!

Then we saw these duck races--again, no line at all, so the kids played a few times.

Then we headed over to the pumpkin launch--we were able to launch 2 pumpkins each as part of our paid admission...the line was short but after 10 min we hadn't moved an inch and Preston's allergies had started to act up. sigh. So I finally gave up and I called Nick to come and get Preston (Nick stayed home cause his back was hurting really really bad!) and we went out to wait for him. Poor Preston was SO sad to leave and miss out on all the fun. I feel so bad for this kid...he needs to live in a bubble...I remember I was exactly the same way when I was a kid too. Hopefully he'll grow out of it like I did.

After Preston left I was determined to make the rest of the time with Ashleigh fun. we headed to the corn maze first...it was big...and I was retarded and followed the map precisely so we wouldn't get lost, but it was fun and we rescued 2 different groups of people who were lost. Lol.


Then we walked around, got Ash a hot-dog and chips, we both got some hot chocolate and we went to look at the farm animals. Then we got some fresh apple juice--YUM--and some caramel corn.


I let Ash play on the hay pyramid for a bit, which she loved.

And finally she got to ride a pony. Those poor animals looked so tired...they stopped twice during the ride and the workers had to get them moving again. I felt bad for them... Plus...do they ever think that maybe the ponies would want to turn around the go left for a while instead of right all the time? I'm just saying...

There were bees everywhere, and I'm very grateful we didn't get stung at all. We didn't do a few of the other activities simply because the lines were crazy long. We did get our free pumpkins though--the clean ones--at the front store cause we didn't go on the hay ride, and because I was nice to the ladies in there when I asked. ;-) Seriously that's what they said...they only let me get my pumpkins in there because I asked so nicely. That was so nice of them :-) And the best part is my primo parking spot was only 30 ft (+ or -) from the pumpkins so it was easy to transport them. :-) It was a good day. :-)
