Boo Who!!!!!!!

         Looks like Halloween has been postponed once again this year.  What are the chances of that happening TWO YEARS in a row!   This year it's not a snowstorm to blame, but it is Hurricane Sandy that played a visit.  Same week as last year, Halloween week!
         Honestly, I am thankful and fortunate that damage around us has been minimal.  Power outages and no school for the past two days.  I know others along the east coast have not been as lucky.  Today is a calm day, even warm here for this time of year.  I just think it is so weird that two years in a row we have had to reschedule Halloween.
        Last night we ate by candle light and cuddled in one bed.  More like squished in if you know what I mean.  We do have a king size bed but with four kiddos in it it seems rather small.  Luckily we only lost power for a few hours.  Makes me wonder how rough life was back in the day without modern conveniences.
         I have been working on the kids treats for their parties tomorrow.  Hoping very strongly that school will be on, wink wink!   I would hate for them to miss all the fun!

         

FALL

     Fall is by far one of my favorite times of the year.  I have had my house decorated since the kids left for school in early September.  Sadly, that's the last time I blogged as I feel like I have not had a second since the kids went back to school!  Guess I'm really "Falling" behind.  I could not let October go without catching up!
       This time of year I cannot get enough Pumpkin or candy corn.  Who knew they had chocolate covered candy corn. Yum!!  My new fall treat.  It's worth the extra time at the gym. Ha!
       The days are getting shorter and mornings are chilly!  Last night it was dark by 6:00.  I don't mind though.  I love the coziness and warmth feel in the house. ( Ask me in March and I'll be dying for more sunlight!)
       I love my house decorated for the season and the smell of apple crisp and pumpkin pie!  The kids are so looking forward to Halloween next week.  Where did the month go?!!

We made our annual trip to Parlee farm in Tyngsboro to do some apple and pumpkin picking.  The weather was so nice!

Nana and Papa with the kids on the hay ride.

Hannah just adores her Papa Fred!

            Out good friend Emily came along with us for the day.  My kids LOVE spending time with Emily!
   They had the cutest bunnies at the apple farm.  My kids begged to take one home.  I almost gave in but I'm the one who does all the work with the bunny we have.  Those baby ones were hard to resist though!  Off to get a Pumpkin Latte before I get Rye from Preschool!  I'll miss all the pumpkin but luckily for me I like gingerbread just as much and Dunkins and Starbucks will be hopping right on that wagon!
