Pumpkin Patch and Halloween

So this year was our first to Tate Farms, our first year to a pumpkin patch period. I really liked it, my kids had a blast of course. It will definitely be on my to do list for next year.

We went twice, I had bought tickets off Living Social and didn't read the fine print which stated it was only good Mon-Fri and of course we went on a Sat. lol So I ended up going Halloween day, but that was ok other than I ended up being pretty rushed. They don't open till 2 so I went down there for a bit then got home got the kids ready for Trunk or Treat over by the park, which was nice. Definitely cut down trick or treating time. Then we went to Food Valu to see Jason's dad, Scottsboro to see his mom and then me and the kids made the long trek to Trenton to see mom and dad. It was a pretty packed day. Next year I think I will start at mom's and work my way back. I can't take this driving home at night. I was driving home from Trenton's singing the other night with Sis.Peggy and we were talking and even in conversation I was having a hard time staying awake!!

HAPPY late BIRTHDAY XANDER!

Well Monday my baby turned 5!! I unfortunately was sick( we had been touched by the virus fairy) so he didn't get to have as good a day as I would have hoped. We did get to go to Burger King yesterday after a trip to the dr followed by a trip to Publix! Woo hoo! Fun times for a 5 year old eh? Don't worry he will get to have some fun eventually, but this momma of 3 has not had this year very together and now there is so much going on, it may be January before he gets his sleepover...lol That may really be true!
Anyay, time has flown by so fast! It's very crazy that I'll have a kid in kindergarten next year. He has grown up so much it's crazy! He has really come out of his shell, I would have expected him to be my quite child. Not so, he will talk to anyone! Adult or child it doesn't matter, if you sit by him at church he will probably talk to you. He did not get this from me, but he has plenty of genes from other sources! I'm glad he is friendly...lol He's a very good kid, hopefully he'll stay that way! So HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Xander! I LOVE YOU!
