Sunday

Pictures from after church yesterday....


I asked her to smile and she did this...

....and then this... She sure knows how to push my buttons when taking pictures...good thing she's cute to make up for it! :)

After church Jeff & I took Kenzie & Ella to a fun little Halloween event in Vestal! It was the first time going there but it wont be the last! We had a great time watching the girls have fun! At first I wasn't going to dress Kenzie up b/c I wanted her costume to be new on Halloween but luckily Jeff (the fun parent!) convinced me I was being crazy and I stopped being a control freak and dressed K up! :) Good thing I did b/c today I asked Kenzie what her favorite part was and she said "my fairy costume!"

It was a beautiful day....perfect for outdoor fun! They had bouncy houses, hay maze, cider, donuts, candy and a huge playground! :) And...everything was free! :)






Kennie loves Ella! :)

Abbie & Kenzie

Today Kenzie & Abbie had a little play date and I thought it would be a great day for a little photo shoot! :)


The shoot didn't start off well....

Abbie didn't want to take pictures and Kenzie's smile looked like this....

But then I let them make silly faces...and they forgot I was taking pictures! :)

Our Weekend

Our weekend started at Family Fun Night at our church on Friday! As always, Kenzie had a great time....she always does! It was suppose to be "Trunk or Treat" but the weather didn't cooperate and it was rainy and wet so the activities were moved inside! It didn't matter though all the kids had a great time! There was pumpkin carving, necklace making, a leaf pit (with prizes hidden in the leaves!), tons of games, fall crafts, a lot candy and a message at the end for the kids!

Kenzie loved being Tinkerbell! This is not her actual Halloween costume (although she'll be a fairy, just not Tink! A pink/purple fairy! so cute!) we shopped through the Whitacre girls' dress up clothes for this costume! :)
On Saturday we headed over to my sister's for Ella & Sophia's 6th birthday party! How crazy...6!!! I still remember when I got called early in the morn that baby Sophie was on her way and I made the 3 hour drive from the Bronx to be there for her birth!! And it feels just like yesterday little Ella came home from China and I talked to her on the phone for the first time! :)

And today we went to church....and that's about it! :)

Apple Picking

On Saturday Kenzie & I went apple picking with my mom, brother, sister-in-law and nephew Brayden! It was hot and crowded but we still had a good time!! I'm not sure what I was thinking....I knew it was suppose to be like 80 degrees, but still bundled us up!?! I was able to take off the shirt under Kenzie's dress but she still had pants and sneakers on! Such a difference from last year when it was freezing!! Maybe next year, we'll have the perfect weather! :)

We Heart Fall!

We had a beautiful weekend!!! It's been very warm and sunny! I can't believe I'm going to say this but I think it might have been a little too warm (for fall)! I know I know...I'll probably regret saying this in a couple months!!


Here are some cute pictures from over the long weekend...

After church...


Today we took Kenzie to the playground...


Last night I walked by Kenzie's room and she made a little bed for herself on the floor! Haha...she even brought down her blankie and blanket!

Pumpkin Farm

Yesterday Jeff had a random Monday off so we decided it would be a great day for the pumpkin farm! Usually this farm is so crowded (on weekends) but yesterday we pretty much had the whole farm to ourselves! :) At first I was in a horrible mood a little bummed...it was a lot colder than expected and I didn't think they had cider and donuts or the hayride working, but my bad mood was pointless b/c they did have cider & donuts (my favorite part!), the hayride was working (and we only had to share it with a few other families!) and despite it being a few degrees cooler we had a great family day! :)

On the way home I asked Kenzie what her favorite part was.....she said the baby goats! :)



(They were very cute!!)

Kenzie's pumpkin she picked out :)
