Trick or Treat

It was quite the combo! (Alice in Wonderland and Slash!) They both looked great in their costumes! Thank you Grammie!!! My mom came in town and we LOVE having her--especially on a holiday! It was perfect 70 degree weather for the "trick or treaters". Grandpa and Grandma Kulp came over before the festivities for some of Grammie's chili! What a wonderful, fun night! Now...how to get rid of all this CANDY!






Even Dave and I got into the day! I threw together a last minute costume as a cowgirl and Dave was H.Lector! We are a motley crew for sure!









Jack-o-Lantern













Pumpkin Carving...This mom is sooooo happy I just get to take the pictures! Jackson, Aurora and the daddy had a good time!

The Children's Museum, Indy!







We went to Dave's sisters in Indy last weekend and had a great time! It is always nice to see family and get away for a couple days! We took the kids to the big Children's Museum and to the mall downtown!

The Grand Finale!


After I made french bread pizza for dinner we were off to Zesto's! It is a great little outdoor ice cream place that serves soft serve. (For my Portland people it is like a Kupie Cone-- when there still was one!) It closes when it gets cold and last night it was CHILLY but we had to make it there because it was the last chance--they were closing their doors for the season.

I included some SILLY videos of the kids...they are a kick and this shows their true little selves.

Off to the Park!



The park was calling our name after a nice walk! Of course no one is tired anymore once they see slides and monkey bars!




The above photo is classic. Jackson going down the rock wall terrified saying "Aurora, I don't want you doing this...it is too dangerous!" Of course our girl practically RAN down it!




Falling Leaves and/or Children....


Next it was time for a walk in the woods! We went to Franke Park and enjoyed the wonderful fall day! Nothing is better than hearing the leaves under your feet on a beautiful day in my opinion--and now Aurora shares the same thought!







Pumpkin Pickin'



Today was a busy, busy day for the little Kulp family! So many great picture opportunities that I thought I would do a separate blog for all of the activities! After a slow, lazy Sunday morning we were off to the Pumpkin Patch in the country! Each of us carefully picked our pumpkin--Aurora had to have 2--one for her room and one for the porch. (She has since named the tiny one Angelina Ballerina and has carried it everywhere except school! She even has carried it in a play pen! Awe, the silliness!) No names for Jackson's but he did decide on a white one which he wants to make it look like a ghost!




Can you tell Jackson is at the age that making silly faces for the camera is "cool"?
