Schnepf Farms

Last weekend we got into the Halloween spirit and took the boys to the pumpkin patch at Schnepf Farms. It took us over an hour to get there but it was definitely worth the drive. There were so many activities for the kids. They had the pumpkin patch, rides, a train, petting zoo, hay rides, corn maze and much more. I am looking forward to making this a yearly event since we had so much fun!!
Alex wanted to look at the pumpkins before we walked around the farm
"look at all of these pumpkins!!"
Going through the corn maze. We actually didn't go far because we were afraid we wouldn't find our way out ha ha
Look at the corn I found!!

It was a great day at Schnepf Farms!!

Emma's Barn Party

Emma had a barn party last weekend!! Steff had planned a great party for the kids. They took turns riding the mini horse and decorated pumpkins. Alex and Evan enjoyed seeing their friends and wearing the Halloween costumes. Evan dressed up as Tigger (from Winnie the Pooh) and Alex was a train engineer. It was a cute idea for a party and we had a blast!!
Wendy and Topper took Alex and Wes to the barn
I rode with Evan. He wasn't so sure what he thought of the horse
The kids all dressed up in the Halloween costumes. Evan went as Tigger!!

Once the kids got to the barn they enjoyed dancing and jumping around to the music

Alex loved going up to see all of the big horses

Alex goes to the dentist

Alex had his first appointment with a dentist this week. I wasn't sure how he would do considering he really doesn't like to brush his teeth. I was totally surprised .... he did GREAT!! Everyone in the office was so nice and the hygienists were so wonderful with Alex and explained everything! Here is a picture of Alex and his dentist, Dr. Chaet.

Happy Birthday Tri!!!

Last weekend I took the boys to Abby and Tri's house to help celebrate Tri's birthday. Unfortunately Wes didn't make it to their house because he was at work. Abby made pha (vietnamese soup with noodles and beef). It was delicious!! We hope you had a great birthday Tri!!

You are never too old to have a Superman cake!!
Alex helped Uncle Tri blow out the candles
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TRI...... and many many more!!

ALEX AND EVAN

I took the boys to have some pictures taken yesterday. This session was a little more difficult that the last now that Evan can take off and walk away. But I am happy with the pictures that we got. The boys are growing up!!
Alex 3 years old and Evan 15 months old









WHO DAT??

Last weekend we went to the Cardinals v. Saints game. It was a great day for some FOOTBALL!!
Tri, Abby, Michelle, Ken, Wes, Me
tailgating before the game
Abby and Tri in their Saints gear
I also wore a Saints jersey to the game. Apparently it was not a good decision. Cardinals fans were making comments at us throughout the game!!
the Fitzgeralds haha
the game was actually really close so it was a lot of fun to watch

Abby and Tri were so sad that the Saints lost!


since the parking lot was packed when it was time to leave we decided to tailgate some more before it was time to go home
Abby, Michelle, Me
