Birthday Party and Little Farmer

[beware: lots of pictures! : )]

Henry's 6th Birthday
We went to Henry's birthday party on Saturday.  It was a very fun time... as it always is.  The kids always have so much fun there!  All the kids played very well together.  Here are some pictures.  Thanks Westphals for a great time! : )

Little Farmer

Today we went to the Little Farmer... our annual tradition.  We met Christy and Olivia there and Mary and Cara also joined.  The kids had a blast!

I think about half of FDL was also there, but it actually wasn't too bad.  We got there around 10:30am and the parking lot had two times more cars than I'd ever seen before!!!  Surprisingly, when we got there the line for carmel apples was really short.  So, we decided to get one right away.  Glad we did, because when we left the line was VERY long!  They were so good!!! Eli got a carmel apple and didn't eat much of it and Rachel decided she just wanted a plain apple.  She "ate" it for about 5 minutes and you could barely tell she had any.  She gave to Kate after she was done and Kate ate way more than Rachel did.  But, Rachel does have some missing and loose teeth, so we can use that for her excuse.  Kate thought she was pretty cool eating an apple... it was her first time!

[yes, that's all she ate... but, she was pretty proud of herself]

[Kate eating her first apple!]

Next was taking the traditional pictures of kids in the pumpkins.  Here are a few of the many, many pictures I took! : )

[i like how Rachel has her arm around Kate in this one]

[Kate - before seeing her cousin Olivia...]

[family picture... we really don't have many of these, so it's nice to have - thanks Christy]

Next, was the picture by the apple and worm! : )

[this picture cracks me up!]

And, finally time to play!

[another funny one... well, Eli might not think it's funny]

[Kate did a lot of walking around]

[the kids... sometimes i forget i have three of them and another on the way ~ craziness!]

Christy invited us to her house to watch the Brewers and have supper.  It was a great time!!  The kids and Olivia had a great time together and the Brewer game was very exciting!  Good times!!

I think the highlight for Rachel was getting to Swiffer the floors! : )

Very FUN weekend!!

Keep smiling! : )
