Krueger's Farm Pumpkin Patch with the Kids

Not being on the Facebook, I am catching up on some blogs I didn't do. I was using Facebook as my blog, of sorts. I like the blog better and am glad to put Facebook on hold for awhile. (:


Anyway, the boys & I went to the pumpkin patch with Lisa and her girls and Cade & Tucker in October. We rode the hayride and picked out pumpkins, gourds & apples. The pumpkins were quite picked over, as it was a Monday after a busy, sunny weekend in the Pacific Northwest. The weekend had miles of cars backup to actually reach the pumpkin patch so I still think we made the better choice. We got the experience and all teased that we could get pumpkins at Safeway. Love these pictures of all the kids!!

Thanksgiving Weekend 2010

Thanksgiving was a blast this year. Caver and her boys were out of the country. That would have made it perfect, if they were there...but, other than that, it was wonderful.

Lisa, Andy, Gray, & Ella came over. Uncle Sean came for awhile, at dessert time. He spent it with some friends, since his family was out of town. Yvette made an appearance as well. It was so great to see everyone.


Lisa brought her niece, Selena, who's the cutest thing ever. She's smart as she can be too!!

It was a lot of fun.
On Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, Ashe, Finn, & I went to the St. Johns Bridge, in North Portland. Finn's been fascinated by it for awhile and has been asking to go "check it out". Funny, because he was just there in October when we went over it on our way to the Pumpkin Patch. Anyway, I humored him and took them over it. We got out at the park underneath - Cathedral Park - and took a few pics. The boys wanted to hang out there, but it was wet and cold. I forced them to go home. God, it's a beautiful bridge, though...
