Field Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

This boy!

I just love him. Isn't he cute? But that is besides the point..  his class, along with the whole first grade went on a field trip to Grandpa Glen's pumpkin patch.

Halloween Part 3 | Costumes and Trick or Treating

This year we made costumes with things we had around the house. It was fun and cheap! I hot glued some scraps of zebra fabric and sequins to one of Estefan's old church shirts and that become Allie's costume. She already had all the princess accessories.

Mark wore what he wears everyday... with the addition of one of my belt buckles from my steer showing days.
The Rodeo Princess and the Cowboy

For Luke I cut up a pair of Mark's old pants and those became his clown bottoms. I used some bandanas and felt to finish off his look.
Johnny's hat came from the talented lady who has been taking his photos every couple months.

After we filled our buckets with a years supply of candy, we headed back home My cute pumpkin boys! Lighting our pumpkins and.. watermelon Dustin got a picture of the pumpkins and the moon coming up. So spooky!!    Happy Halloween!!
