CARVING PUMPKINS

Abby helping Gong Suk with his pumpkin
A little unsure about getting in there and getting all messy

Ok she decided to try it.
Eww...slimey
But it turned out to be pretty fun
Helping Mommy
She wanted to use the little saw. Very helpful! ; )
Abby and her pumpkins

Mommy's pumpkin which took a long time so Gong Suk was kind enough to carve the other two.

Decorating little pumpkins

When we were at the store Abby saw these little pumpkins and wanted to get some and I thought why not. So we bought a bag full and some fun little accessories and had a lot of fun decorating them. She has been carrying them around the house playing with them since we made them. Not quite sure how we are going to get rid of them yet.

Feathers YAY!!

She wanted to do the gluing by herself.

Decorating

She loves her pumpkins!

Abby with all of her little pumpkins. Her favorites were the witches.

Riding the Deer

Giving the deer a kiss. : )

PLAYING IN THE LEAVES!

When we got home from the pumpkin patch Abby was walking through the leaves because she liked the crinkling sound they made. Which started me to thinking how much fun we used to have as kids jumping and playing in big piles of leaves. So......

Just getting started

Running through them

Time to really dig in
Pretty good pile huh?

It's the leaf monster!!

Too cute!

She was definitely having a blast!

Of course I had to get in on the fun!

I love this one!

So I don't like this one of me but it is still kinda cute so I will put it on here. I like Abby's little grin!

PUMPKIN PATCH

So pretty much all of my pictures at the pumpkin patch turned out blurry. Plus we waited too long this year combined with the crazy weather and the early freeze. So it wasn't nearly as fun as last year where you are actually out searching for the pumpkin that you like. It was searching for a pumpkin that wasn't all mushy. We still had fun. They have the big blow up slide and jumpy castle and some animals there to see which Abby thoroughly enjoyed.

Ready to head to the pumpkin patch

Would have been super cute if it wasn't blurry dang it!!

They have these convenient little displays where you can take pics.

Giving the scarecrow a little love. : )

Checking out the animals

THE CIRCUS

So our month started out with going to the circus. I had seen it advertised on a bulletin one day on our way to work and thought now Abby would love that. So I invited a bunch of people to come to Denver and go to the circus, but the only ones who made it (although a different showing) were Colt and Ashley. Oh well though Great Grandma Rhea, Gong Suk (Uncle Jeff), Abby and I had a great time. I believe Abby's favorite things were the animals. The horses, elephants, tigers, and a few others. She kept telling me that she wanted to ride them. So not that she has told me but if I had to guess what she wanted to be when she grows up at this point is probably an elephant riding girl in the circus. :) lol. The above picture with the big cotton candy grin is one of my favorites.

Abby and I dressing up in circus clothes during the pre show.

In the pre show this elephant painted a picture they had a raffle for later on in the show.

So she has this obsession with motorcycles. So of course she was very excited to see this during the pre show. Sadly they didn't do anything with it in this particular show.

They made this elephant disappear and since their was audience on both sides it is still beyond me how they did it.

I just loved this one of Uncle Jeff.

Husband and Wife getting readyto be shot out of the giant cannon. It was pretty cool.

Abby looks a little cranky but I loved Grandma's expression on this one!

Crazy gymnastic like guys flying between these apparatus things. Also pretty cool.

Multiple elephants doing stuff together in sync.
You just have to laugh at this one!

The tiger show wasn't very long but we thought it was still kinda cool.

Tigers
End of the circus. She was getting a little bit tired.

Of course after it was all over and Abby saw this photo booth she wanted to ride the tiger. This one was taken with my camera and didn't turn out as cute as the one that I paid to have taken.

This is Abby in her magic hat that came with the really expensive bag of cotton candy. It was really funny. Gong Suk bought the cotton candy and awhile later Grandma was thinking about getting some popcorn, but decided to ask how much the cotton candy was first. After Jeff said it was $10 for the bag she decided she could wait till we got home for popcorn.

So last Friday on my day off Grandma Rhea, Abby and I went shopping. I was looking for some tights for Abby's halloween costume, but we ended up finding some other stuff along the way too. Mainly a few Halloween decorations. I would have to say that Abby's favorite would be the two new skeletons we got. She even named them.....Scream and Bob. I have no idea how she came up with those either. So on day one Bob broke his leg off. Gong Suk (Uncle Jeff) told her that he would fix it the next day. Although he was planning on doing it after she went to bed because it would involve super glue and didn't figure having Bob stuck to her would be a good thing. : ) Well he forgot and the next night when it was time for family prayer she brought Scream and one legged Bob. She then asked, "Where's Bob's other leg?" to which Gong Suk responded, "It's a leg it walked off." She thought for a second and said, "Oh no poor Bob's leg" It was even in this sad little voice. It was hillarious! Anyways Bob went into surgery right after family prayer and recovered sleeping on the table over night, but she made sure he had a blanket to stay warm. After that at night she lets Scream sleep in her bed, but Bob has to sleep in the dresser drawer all closed in. Last night I asked if Bob could sleep in the bed with Scream and she quickly responded, "NO". Anyways, she likes sleeping with Scream. I thought it was pretty darn cute so last night I got some pictures. Then tonight I thought I better get a few more pics where you can see them both a little better. Its cute she makes them dance and hold hands and go for walks. Too darn funny! Its fun to watch her imagination grow!





Seriously who needs soft fuzzy stuffed animals when there are skeletons to go to sleep with? ; )
