october...

what a month it has been. last week was my turn to teach preschool. i must admit. these are some pretty darn cute kids! and it was so simple and easy. 

we did the letter f, the number 6, and our theme for the week was fall. we did friends, (six of them none the less, how convenient) frames, family, fall, farm animals, frogs, fish, had french fries and fruit smoothies. 

it was quite fun. i really enjoyed it.

then this week tegs had his pumpkin patch field trip to the farmstead...

 um... BURR is all I have to say. it was cold. but they all had a blast and i was quite happy with all that they were able to do and it only costing $4. field trips are the way to go!!

 

 mya loved this tractor barrel train ride shindig.. i mean LOVED. she screamed her guts out when they stopped, if she caught a glimpse of it the hysterics would start, and she would randomly lay on the ground screaming pointing towards it. it was awesome. not. i was tempted to leave the sweet, kind, loving, calm, patient child there.

 for some reason there is a massive "dirt alligator" there. the boys love driving by it and so being able to go and touch it was a complete joy.

 i want one of these in my backyard. it was sweet. a massive tarp air bubble jump thing (you like that description, im brilliant.) the kids jumped and ran around on it for a solid hour.
