Happy Halloween!

The boys were great today. Tommy had a party at school and brought home a TON of stuff. Then we took the boys trick-or-treating for the first time right before dinner. Tommy got the hang of the whole thing VERY quickly. He'd ring the doorbell and yell "Trick-or-Treat" and if they didn't answer the door in like two seconds he would run to the next house. By the end, Jack understood that if he walked up to the door he would get candy. Once we got home, Tommy helped me hand out candy to all the kids. He put one piece in each bag and yelled "Happy Halloween!" - so cute. Jack kept yelling because he didn't want us to give away the candy. Overall it was a wonderful day. BTW - Jack was Yoda and Tommy was Obi Won Kenobi.













This is what Tommy came home from school with!

Norz Hill Farm

On Saturday, we had a nice family trip to Norz Hill Farm to go pumpkin picking. Norz Hill Farm is a working dairy farm around the corner from our house in Hillsborough. They do a "Fall festival" every year where you can go pumpkin picking, take a farm tour, go through corn mazes, pony rides, and much more. This year we did the farm tour and the pumpkin picking with the boys. We took a tractor ride out to the farm where they had chickens, goats, pig, cows, horses, mules, ducks, zonkey (half donkey, half zebra), sheep, emu, and calfs. The boys had a blast petting the animals. We then caught the next tractor to the huge pumpkin patch where you can pick pumpkins and gourds (over 50 varities) right from the vine. Over all, it was a fun day for both Tom and me with our boys.
