Pumpkin Patch 2008!







Here are just a few of our pictures from the pumpkin patch here by our house. We had such a good time and came home with a few (to many) pumpkins. We even put Chloe in one while we were carving them, super cute. Quentin thought we should give love to all the pumpkins, I wonder what he'll think the Christmas trees need?



Happy Halloween Everyone!

I can't believe that it is October already, summer sure went by fast for us. We went to Lake Tahoe in August to see my little brother Rick get married. It was very beautiful, we are so happy for them. Rick is getting ready to go back to school and is working to become an officer. He is such an amazing, smart, driven MAN., I am so proud of him, he is going to make a wonderful husband.
We also went to California for my friend Jenny Mahaffys wedding. We spent five days in LA and after the wedding we took the kids to Disneyland. This was Quentin's second time there and Chloe's first. They loved it!!! We spent all day there, and I mean all day because we didn't leave the park until 1 in the morning. It was easy to do since we were staying at the Grand Californian Hotel. I don't know what we did right but we didn't have a single melt down from either kid, it was easier then taking them grocery shopping. :) It really is the happiest place on earth. it is so much fun taking them at this age. I know they say to take them when they are older and go on more of the rides but at this age we were able to ride plenty of rides and the best part was they weren't wanting everything. It wasn't about what I bought them, it was about just being there. Quentin wanted his picture taken with as many of his "friends" as we could find. We managed to find Mickey, Minnie, Tigger and Pooh and that make his day. I can't wait till our next visit there.
That sums up our summer and now we are getting ready for the holiday season. We went to the pumpkin patch last weekend and had family pictures done there, so I will have some really nice family photos to post real soon. Along with pictures of them in their Mickey and Minnie costumes for Halloween. I say all this so that I will make sure I keep posting through the holidays ;) As for the little stuff going on, Chloe is already trying to walk! I know, she isn't even eight months old and she is so close to taking a step she can taste it. She wants to be doing everything big brother is doing it just drives her mad. They are such happy kids, Quentin loves her and she is just fascinated with him I don't know what I found entertaining before them. Jeff is working on his golf game now that we don't have any water polo to schedule around. The golf isn't going all that well but he sure is having fun and the kids and I are loving having him around more.
