A little Early

I know It's a little early for christmas but i couldnt help it.. It comes and goes so fast that by the time I finally get in the mood its over so I decided I was going to start early this year.. We didnt get much of a christmas last year since we were moving to NJ the week of christmas so we didnt get to decorate our house all up or anything. I really wanted to put the tree up but I think steve would shoot me if I did this early I have to wait until after thanksgiving.. But at least I can listen to the music and watch christmas movies now.. All the stores have their christmas stuff out already so why cant I??? LOL

Well the kids have today and tomorrow off from school so we have had a nice lazy day..
I'v been so crazy busy with orders for die cuts it was nice to finally relax a little today..

Pumpkin Carving.

We carved pumpkins tonight.. Just wanted to show some picts of the fun the kids were having.. Sorry for my topless son.. He wouldnt wear a shirt because he didnt want any pumpkin guts on it!! Everyone but logan was disgusted pulling out the pumpkin guts. Logan was giggling and laughing the whole time.. She was the first one to get her pumpkin cleaned out.

And this was our results.. Steve usually does all the carving. In years past he has spent hours carving away. This time I told him he was limited to 2 hrs. So he only got 1 really cool one done but I think they all turned out pretty good...

Pumpkin Hay Ride

Thursday our ward had a what they call Mother's Group activity for mothers and their small children who are not in school yet. They usually have some kind of activity once a month and this month was to go to the Windsor Farms and got on a hay ride and pick out a pumpkin from the pumpkin patch.. It was a really fun time.. My other children really missed out. They drive you through the forrest where they have set up little towns and villiages with scarry halloween characters from scarry movies like freddie crougar and Jason. They also had the amnityville house and the bates motel. It was really cool.. After leading us through the haunted forrest we stopped at a big rest place where they had several tables and bathrooms and they gave us fresh apple cider.. I am not a big apple juice fan but this apple cider was just the best stuff I have ever tasted. It was strictly juice straight from the apples it was so good!! I brought some home and my family devoured it..

They also had a bunch of Disney characters throughout the forrest from some of the monster disney movies like shrek, scooby doo, monsters inc,3 pigs and the wolf, little red riding hood,casper. The kids were so excited they just had a blast.

Ok so this is strange.. blogger is not letting me format the way I want so this is not looking how I wanted it too. I am not sure why it is doing this.. Anyways here is a pict of the pirates, they had a big pond and acroos the other side of the pond was a big pirate ship with all the skeletons and pirates. Sorry some of the pictures ar not that great it was hard to get some of them as we were moving on the trailer. But if you click on the picture it will show you a bigger picture..

Logan picking her pumpkin!!

The villiage of the witches!!

This was at the entrance. The pumpkin goblin actually lighted up and talked to us the kids really got a kick out of it..

Forgetful Toothfairy

As if I didnt have enough trauma last night.... Before the light of day this morning we had to experience yet 1 more... So my 6 yr old lost her tooth yesterday and she had put it under her pillow upon going to bed with a note to the toothfairy that said I love you on it... So sweet right?? Well anyways I come home last night and she was already asleep so I tucked her in and gave her a kiss and went off to bed. Come 3:00 this morning we had a very distraught little girl come into our room stating her tooth and note was missing and there was no money left for her.. We had to reassure her that everything was ok and that we were sure the toothfairy would be coming and to hurry and go back to sleep so she could come.. Of course I couldn't go back to sleep after that worrying about how the dang toothfairy could manage to get the tooth but forget to leave her money DUHHHHHHH..... Naturally after fretting about it for an hour I think the toothfairy assumed it was safe to come and left her some money however mom stayed awake the rest of the morning. Come 6:30 this morning we had a happy little toothless grinning girl come bouncing into our room holding her dollar and proceeded to tell us her concockted story that she truly believed that when she had woke up at 3 AM she had found her tooth that it must have slid off her bed into her garbage can and that she had found it and put it back under her pillow and that is when the toothfairy came. I figured there wasn't any need to let her believe otherwise even though I knew the tooth hadn't fallen into her garbage can but I did give her 2 other possible scenarios that maybe she had taken the tooth back to fairy land to have it weighed to see how much the tooth was worth and then had to come back and leave the money or maybe that when she had taken the tooth she began to wake up so the toothfairy had to use some of her special fairy dust to turn her invisible so she could hide and not bee seen and then when she fell back asleep she was able to leave the money.. Who knows!!

My personal opinion and conclusion to this story.....Well this isn't the first time this has happened. Big sister lost a tooth a couple months ago and she didnt get any money for her tooth either until the next night.. what a very forgetful toothfairy... Well I remember having the toothfairy come to me and leave money for my teeth and my mom saying that she used to come to her and leave money for her teeth so I am guessing this toothfairy is really old by now and maybe she suffers from old timers and a little senility.... LOL Jessie will be loosing her second front tooth probably today or tomorrow so lets hope the toothfairy has it together by then aayy!!
