Halloween is in the air...

Well, last weekend when we visited the apple orchard, Kennedy was very upset because she didn't get to pick any apples from the trees. So, we went back, this time with Daddy, and it was a blast:) With the help of Daddy's "ladder" (it was imaginary:)) Kennedy picked the perfect Honey Golden's from the tippy top of the trees!
She was very proud of her picks and insisted on carrying the bucket back to the barn.
After we got home from the orchard, it was time to get ready for the Rebal Halloween Party. Kennedy has hand selected each piece for her costume this year, which has been much fun:) A pink princess dress, a princess tiara and green Tinkerbell shoes! Oh, and a pink necklace and gold bracelet...
The problem: the orchard wore her out and with no nap, she fell asleep in the car for the short 15 min ride from our house to the Rebal's... Not to worry, she sprang into action once she saw the bouncy obstacle course and all of her friends:)

Hard to believe she made it down the slide WITH the ice cream cone still being eaten:)
Second helping of fresh made ice cream - this time in a bowl and without the princess dress:)
Picking "flowers" with her friend Della.
This is actually her pouting and walking away from me, but it was a cute shot:)
Here is a group shot of all the kiddos in costume!
Last picture, waiting patiently for the pinata to break so she can load up on more candy:) Thanks Dean and Deb for a great party once again!

Football & Orchards!

We have been very busy this weekend:) First, the homecoming parade and Pagliai's Pizza for dinner on Friday. Then the tailgate for IA vs. Penn State on Saturday! Quite the spread, I must say. Then, we met friends at Wilson's Apple Orchard. Oh - so much fun:)
Those drums were too loud at the parade!
Kennedy's favorite thing is to sit on our shoulders. Double tents for this tailgate!





Eatin "slimey" aka salami... The spread.
Ta da! It was pretty chilly out, but she wouldn't wear a coat. Finally I got her to put this hat on...


I came back from the portojohnny to find this: Kennedy chilling watching Franklin. Doesn't get any better than that:)
Visiting Wilson's Apple Orchard w/ Della, Asher, Ian, Cael and Darci and Lisa!










Kissing the pumpkin... Loving the tractor ride!
