Just one of the punkins

Thought I would share the kids' Halloween costumes and our brief pumpkin patch visit today. We win worst parents award for taking them to the most boring pumpkin patch ever, but neither of them seemed to mind so maybe we just got off easy!

So this first pic I know looks pretty random, but we had some guys pulling out a huge tree root ball before they planted a new tree in its place. And Mark LOVES to watch the workers. See his front row spot? He is really into construction. In fact, I've been scouring the internet and catalogs for a good construction kit to get him for christmas.

Grandma Brown came through town last week on her way home from Jackson Hole. It was great to see her for a few days. I had to go to work, so Kate and I missed out on the pictures but here is Mimi, Grandma Brown, Linds, and Gracie. Beautiful girls!




And I'm sure you've all already seen this one! She's MY beautiful girl!



And now, for what you've all been waiting for! For Kate's very first Halloween, she is going to be........

Spiderman!


Just kidding! She just wanted to try on Mark's mask the other day! =)




We got a "new" toy out of the attic for Kate yesterday. Mark likes to "help" her with it!























Oh yes folks....its batman this year!



And now for some pumpkin patch pics. We weren't there long but I took about 60 some pictures in true Beverly style!


Its a little difficult to get a good pic of Mark. He was too busy conquering the piles of pumpkins (they were his pirate ship) to smile. We are constantly playing Jake and the Neverland Pirates (Disney show) around here. Mark is Jake of course, I'm Izzy, Rocky is Cubby, Mobely is Captain Hook, and Kate is baby. Yes, in our version there is a baby!


Speaking of imaginations, Mark told a few of the mom's at playgroup yesterday that he had a bike race the night before and he won. He said it was in Oklahoma City and some of his friend's from Africa also raced in it. Hmmmm. Then when I had him tell the story to John, it was a grass (cross bike) race in Mexico while John and I were sleeping, and Britton and Leyton were there. I thought it was too funny that the Garcia's were in the Mexico version!!!! =)


Anyway, the pumpkin patch pics...





Whoever knew that Mr "deer-in-the-headlights" baby would have squinty eyes? It was bright though..



She's our little punkin!




Like I said, just one of the punkins!

Kristy, great blog entry. Mark looks so grown up next to Kate with the new toy...we love Batman and it is so appropriate for "Jake" as he saves the world from evil. Kate is the most beautiful pumpkin in the patch!!!
