Hee Haws

Matisyn is so fun during the holidays now. She gets into the holiday spirit just like me! On Friday night we had family time at Hee Haws and took in some Halloween activities and picked out pumpkins. She was running all over taking it all in. She couldn't wait to pick out her pumpkin!

It was funny to watch Matt with Matisyn. Usually by the time I get home I am so frazzled and my patience is gone with Matisyn. Matt is always telling me to settle down. He had the girls for the day because he was off work and I am taking classes to keep my teaching license active. So while we were out Friday night it was nice to be the patient, rational one, instead of the frazzled, had enough for the day one! When I got home the girls were happy and well taken care of, they were fully clothed between the two of them, Matisyn had pants on and Emilyn had on a shirt! Matisyn is often not clothed by the time Matt comes home with me too, but has usually gone through multiple outfits by that time at night. I can't say the poor house was in much order, but that is true with me home some days too! Thanks cute husband for being such a good Daddy!

It's been hard to leave the girls to do these classes, but it will also be good for me. I'm taking so many to try to get them done that it will be stressful, but I'm thinking a new kind of stressful will be good for a change. As much as Matisyn continues to give me a run for my money, she seems to do great for other people. At least I don't need to worry about her when I'm gone. From what I hear, Emilyn is still happy as long as she is being held and given attention. She doesn't drink as much milk from her bottle though. I'm very, very grateful to have such fabulous friends that will help me out. I couldn't trust my girls to just anyone, and I can't thank everyone enough for their help so far and the days in the future.


Hanging out while big sister rode the train.

Just like in the past at Cornbelly's, the train was Matisyn's favorite. She rode it twice, and smiled the whole time. She seems so big this year!

Ems didn't ride the train, but I decided to snap a shot of them together before it took off.





Hayride


I liked the mountain view in the background.





The little petting zoo: 6 little piglets, sheep and goats (they knew where to get the food), chickens, and bunnies


Picking out her pumpkin

It was a little too big for her to pick up!





That's a little too much "love" for Emilyn!
