Pumpkin Patch

Halloween and "fall" are my favorites!  There's nothing like a trip to the pumpkin patch!

This year we went to Pagers in Sarver, PA

   

   

    

     

7th Birthday Party!

Sam's Birthday Party request was to have a "Dance Party" with a DJ!  These are the times when it's good to have a DJ in the family :)  

   

There were about 8 girls who danced for hours!

   

Thanks, DJ Z!

   

Sam had the best birthday party ever!

(and wants to have the SAME party every /other/ year!)  Oy!

   

This was *my* favorite part... I made a "photobooth", and had each guest take several pictures with Sam!  They really got into it, and took some silly pics!  Then I edited them in Picnik, and wha-la!

      

     

September

Fall soccer started in September.  The girls play for Freeport Area Soccer Association.  This is Emma's last fall in U10, and Sam is again in U8 ~ with mommy as one of her coaches!  

We celebrated daddy's birthday with a few people joining us for the Steelers game, and this cake designed to look like his favorite candy (of the moment, it has since changed, lol). 

My sisters, cousin Michael and I spent a day at Kennywood and had a BLAST!

 

Emma & I got to attend a Penguins pre-season game (thanks, Aunt Janet!)

And Annalie May turned 1 on September 27!

   

End of summer fun

Spray Ground @ Deer Lakes Park

 

  

First day...

First day of school @ Buffalo Elementary!

Sam is starting 2nd Grade, and Emma is starting 4th Grade

 

  

Kennywood!

Our friends from Maryland came to visit us for a couple days, and we decided to show them Kennywood!  Everyone had a great time, and Jake did not receive too much abuse for his shirt choice, lol.
