This one is for Allie

I really suck at this whole blogging thing.  At first I started it as a way to keep family and friends up to date on our lives...then I had babies and quickly realized that time is now the enemy.  Not only are there not enough hours in the day but time also makes my babies grow.  The boys are already 8 1/2 months old and Miss Madison 9 going on 19.  In an effort to keep up with my blog, I have joined forces with my friend Allie.  We are both going to be updating our blogs at least once a week.  So this one is for Allie :)

This weekend was crazy!  Madison had soccer tournaments on Saturday.  The first game was at 9:15 and if they won, they had to play again at 2:15.  Guess what....they won!  So we had 3 1/2 hours to kill between games.  We had lunch and headed up to Kings Island to pick up our passes for next year.  We went back to the soccer field after that where the girls had a heartbreaking loss.  They played hard and should be very proud of themselves.

As much fun as hanging out at the soccer field was, it was time to get our pumpkins!  We went to Browns Farm out in Ross and took the kids out into the pumpkin patch.  Madison had a great time and really took her time picking out the perfect pumpkin.  The boys didn't seem to be too impressed but they hung in there like little troopers.

Forgot to have Madison take off her "rec specs"

After the pumpkin patch it was home to get the boys settled and to carve our pumpkins.  I wasn't feeling the best but we still had fun and Madison hasn't stopped talking about it.  It really is the little things in life. 

 I think that's about it for now.  I have plenty more to write about but it is past my bedtime.  Hopefully I can start to blog at least once a week.  Who knows, I might even get really good at this and find the time to go back and tell all the stories I want to tell.
