Halloween

Rylie's Halloween costume was made be Grandma Grant and I, thank you Grandma. SHE'S A CLOUD! Other pictures include carving of the pumpkins (done Halloween night...we're behind) since Logan has an ear infection his part in the festivities were not so much this year...hopefully he'll catch up next year. Rylie did dress up for her school Halloween party and today for Halloween but did not want to go Trick or Treating...she helped Grammy hand out candy.

Playing in the Leaves

A time honored fall tradition! You rake the leaves....they jump in the leaves....etc. They have fun you get some exercise....everyone benefits!

Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

This years trip to the pumpkin patch was not as good as last years. Lots of people made it less enjoyable. Boo Hoo! But we still went on a hayride, pet some cute animals, played in the corn and, or course got our pumpkins!

Rylie's First Field Trip

This is Rylie's BFF Jackie. She is very cute but her mom definately has her hands full!

If you notice the holding position...Rylie is literally squeezing the poop out of this poor little duck. Clean up was pretty gross!

Amid all the tragic stuff that was going on in the family this week (John's passing), the light side of life was that Rylie got to go on her first school field trip. It was a much needed distraction for me and fun times for the Ryster. We went to the Children's Farm in Palos Park where Rylie and her classmates got to hold animals, go on a hay ride and pick their own pumpkin. They were all so cute!
