Kansas City Chiefs!

Due to some last minute change of plans, me, Steve and Curt
headed down to the Kansas City Chiefs game today and 
watched them to a 4-0 record.

Steve and I drove down to Curt's on 
Saturday night and Aubrey was lucky enough
to spend the night at Grandma Char and Grandpa Craig;s.

Here is Curt with Rocky :)

Walking through all the tailgating.
PS - New NFL rule, you can't take purses in to the stadium!
After we walked ALL the way there,
Steve walked all the way back to the car (almost a mile!)
to return my purse - ugh!


Curt and Steve pre-game


Note we were in the SHADE.
It was a sunny gorgeous day and we landed some seats in the shade
and CLOSE to the top and near the restrooms - what a deal. 




Final score:
Chiefs 31 and NY Giants 7
We win - now, 4-0

Harvest Festival

It was a nice night for Osky Christian's annual Harvest Festival.
Aubrey had a great time!

She loved the bounce house.


There was a small donkey to keep the kids 
entertained while they waited to ride the horse.

The owner asked Steve to hold the donkey
while she helped with the horse.
Suddenly a flock of kids came over :)

"PONY time"
Aubrey smiled the whole time.
(Good thing since we waited in line for 30 minutes)

Daddy walked next to her just in case.
But she did great the whole time.
She said, "It's so bumpy!"

Getting a tatoo.

Watching the balloon man
intently waiting her turn. 

Another long wait
for a balloon flower!
BUT, it hasn't popped yet.


Daddy helped Aubrey shoot some hoops!

She made 1/6.
Daddy's arms were very tired by the end of six :)

Aubrey with her BFF Kate 

On Saturday, we headed to DSM
to do some fall/winter shopping for Aubrey
at Once Upon a Child
and some more maternity clothes for Mommy.
Curt and Mom met us at Red Robin for lunch!
Yummm.

A Quick Trip

We all drove up to Northwest Iowa for the quick weekend.
We got out of a school a bit early on Friday and were able to leave by 3:00. 
We made great time and were to my parents by 8:30.
Steve just spent the night and then drove up to Spencer to hang out at 
the Spencer Fair with his family while they showed cattle.
Mom then drove Aubrey and I back to Spencer on Sunday afternoon.

The girls liked standing on the chair
looking outside, mostly at "Toby" the dog!

We traveled to PUMPKIN LAND in Orange City
Saturday morning with the Wynias, Grandma and Jessica.

Having fun playing on the play toys.

Weeee!

"Can I take your order?!"

Checking out the animals...goats, llamas, horses.

They could even feed them some corn!

The animals pulled them right out of your hand
so Grandma hung on tight with the girls.

TRYING to get a picture of all three....haha,
that will never happen.

Not quite tall enough...

That's better, girls!

Standing in the corn maze with the tall corn.

So fun to walk/run through the "Munchkin Maze" together.

SO FUN!

:)

Then they got in the wagon,
while grandma pulled them to go pick out
their own pumkins from the field!

These look just right!

Thanks, grandma - how fun!

The kids with their freshly picked pumpkins.

"How tall this Fall?"

Camryn took this pic of us...not bad.

GREAT pic of Grandma with the
three grandkids.

Grandma had great dress-up clothes!
What more could a 2  year old girl want...
princess dress, dolly, wings, Dora, and a wand!

Even BETTER to have a cousin to dress-up together with!

Eating pizza in the living room.

An after supper activity.
