"-now"

Greta couldn't believe it when she woke up this morning to "-now".  It was everywhere!  On the cars, grass, swingset, table, and even the church park!
On a side note:
Daddy was tired of Greta saying he had "boobies," so he taught her boys have pecs.  The other night I was giving Greta a bath and she said, "Mommy has boobies and Daddy has pecs."  So I asked her, "What does Greta have?"  Her response, "Buttons!"

Halloween Festivities

The Halloween festivites have begun!  Last weekend Greta went to Zoo Boo with her cousin Henry, and this weekend we went to the Cultural Center to partake in Halloween projects.
Our little pirate ready to go.

Project #1: An eyeball.

Project #2: A prune spider.

Project #3: A mummy.

Project #4: A ghost.

Excuse me, Mommy and Daddy, but I think that's my blanket and pajamas!  Greta was not too pleased Mommy and Daddy were wearing "her" footie pajamas.  Greta stayed with her new babysitter, Sara (who she loved!), on Saturday night, while Mommy and Daddy went to their Road Rally.

Off to School

With all of Greta's friends going to school, she wanted to get in on the fun as well.  Luckily, I found out Greta can go to "school" on Monday nights with Mommy.  We went to ECFE where she got to play with new friends, sing songs, have circle time, paint, and have snack!  She had a blast at school, but was a little disappointed she didn't get to ride on a yellow school bus.

Pumpkin Princess

Pumpkin Patch

Grampa and Gramma Gillespie came this weekend, so we headed to Janu's Pumpkin Patch for a morning of fun.  Enjoy the pics!
 


This is buckshot.  She was found at only 3 days old and was bottle fed by the Janu family.  She was so tame that we were able to pet her.

Harvest Fest

Despite the cold temperatures, we made it to some of the festivities for Harvest Fest.  First stop was the petting zoo.  Greta didn't want to pet any of the animals, but she had fun looking at them.


Mommy and Greta took a ride around town in the Perham Express, while Daddy followed in the van.

All aboard!

Pumpkin bowling.

A victory dance!

Hairs

A few weeks ago, Mommy cut Daddy's hair while Greta watched.  Ever since this time, she's been drawing pictures of "Daddy's hairs" on her mini magna-doodle.

Tante was in Town!

What a busy weekend we had when Tante came to visit.  We started the fun out with cheering on the Frazee Hornets to another victory and ended with family pictures.  Thank you Tante for a fun weekend!  We can't wait until you can visit again!
 

Greta was really into clapping and cheering on the team, and her Daddy of course!
 
Tante had a special turkey project for Greta to complete.

Gobble, Gobble.
 
A trip to the New York Mills pumpkin patch was in order.  Greta carefully selected her neon pink shoes to wear.  She always wants to look her best!

Adorable!

 
The best part of the pumpkin patch was the great hotdog lunch, in which Greta requested two!
 
Painting pumpkins for the first time in 80 degree weather=crabby, sweaty little girl afterwards.

 
A small glimpse of our family photos.  You'll have to wait until Christmas to see the final product.


Finally some fun after all that picture taking!
