Butler’s Orchard

We took the annual trip to the pumpkin patch/fall festival.  Moxie got to pick any pumpkin she wanted and she picked a weird bumpy goose neck one and then a white pumpkin.  Mom picked the traditional one.  Moxie’s favorite thing?  A weird ear of corn she fell in love with–she’s been prying individual kernels off for days.  

Carving the pumpkin

We carved pumpkins.  Well, first we picked them out (I’ll post about that later) THEN we colored on them and THEN we carved them.  It was pretty stinking fun.

No Pants.  All Business.

This is what the second kid does: crawl around the outside.

Unafraid of the knife

Despite her best efforts she can’t saw her fingers

Moxie takes this biz seriously.

Where a kid can be a kid!

During a cold, rainy day off of school our kiddos took a trip to Chucky Cheese’s!  During the trip Moxie said, “Ms. Debrah, I love you, this is the best day.” She spent a fair amount of tickets on weird little photo cards that have weird stuff on them AND a picture of her sweet little face.  Keen LOVED the rides.  I have no idea how people felt about the pizza.  Honestly, who loves CCs pizza?
Remember the WEIRD round the clock thing?  Yep that’s still there.

Pizza: the BEST way to finish fun with rides.

Chucky is her co-pilot

She drives standing.

Serious riders.

Less serious riders

Tailgating.

Still standing.

How long until she realizes she’s not actually playing the game?

Keen is 9 months old!

Well Folks–Keen has been on the outside as long as she was in!  She has been breathing air as long as she was swimming amniotic fluid.  She’s a great little kid–her favorite person in the world is Moxie.  Second and third: Pili and Gyges.  She can surf along couches, eats all the foods, and has a thing for playing the piano.  She even waves bye bye and (sort of) says it.  She’s pretty great.
