Pumpkin Patch

We went to Love Orchards Pumpkin Patch on Monday. The weather was perfect; it even felt like fall. Tyler had such a good time. He painted a pumpkin, went on a barrel ride and hay ride. He loved the maze!! Him and his friend, Genevieve had so much fun running through it.I think the petting zoo was one of Tyler's favorite part. These little chicks they let the kids pet were only 4 days old. Tyler loved petting the bunny and guinea pig. He also had fun feeding the goats and sheep. In a few weeks, we'll be going to Devine Acres. We went to that Pumpkin Patch last year and loved it. They are both good pumkin patches, but Devine Acres has a few more things to do.

WVU vs LSU

Last weekend Scott and I went to Baton Rouge for the WVU vs LSU games. Scott is a huge WVU fan. His dad went there and he grew up going to games. LSU is his second favorite team since he went to LSU Shreveport. Even though WVU lost, we still had a good time. We had yummy Cajun sea food when we arrived. We got to the game early, so we got to see the team walk by all the fans, the band come in, and the Tiger being wheeled down the street. There were a few rowdy groups of people that would call anyone in WVU shirts "Tiger Bait" anytime we walked by, but most everyone in "Death Valley" was nice. We were 8 rows from the top and where we were sitting, it was probably 85% WVU fans. It was fun to get away although it was a lot of driving for one weekend. Tyler stayed with his grandparents in Houston and had a good time there.

Fall Crafts

These are some of the fall crafts we've started. For the acorn, I had to cut out a stencil and then Tyler used fall paint colors and painted it with acorns. I think it turned out great.

This is his jack-o-lantern. After he painted the plate orange, I cut out the face,then we used black crape paper on the back for the face and added a green stem.

Tonight we made yummy peach cobbler.

Letter P

Last week we worked on the letter P. We made a P Peacock, P Piano, worked on Patters and finding the letter P. We also made Popsicles. I've also printed out some preschool pages from the Internet that Tyler really likes. They've been pages like-what picture doesn't belong, matching shapes, finding all the squares, diamonds, etc. in the picture, pages to do with sizes.

New Crafts

Yesterday we decided to make a craft-a fish bowl.

For Tyler's birthday, his Aunt Stacey gave him the book "If you give a Moose a Muffin." It's become one of his favorites. We made a moose head today.

Both projects were from http://www.notimeforflashcards.com/

Labor Day Pics

I know Labor Day was a few weeks ago, but I just got these pictures from my sister-in-law. Since Stacey was in town, we went to Houston to see her and Scott's parents. Tyler doesn't get to see Aunt Stacey that often. He had a fun time with her and his grandparents. He showed off on his scooter. We stayed with my best friend, Dana while we were there and that was great. It was fun catching up with her and I even got to go to a movie with her. It was fun girl time.

Why?

That is the question Tyler now asks constantly. He just started about 4 days ago. It's driving me crazy. Everything you say, he asks why to. A lot of times I ask him why he thinks so and most of the time he knows why. Apparently I did this when I was around his age. On one family vacation, we were driving to CO from IL. When I fell asleep, my parents decided to drive straight though instead of stopping for the night just so they could drive without me asking so many questions.
