Harvest time at Underwood!


We made our annual trip to the Harvest Festival at the Farm and it did not disappoint! We were there from 10am-4pm and the kids were so wiped out(understandably) but we still had to DRAG them out!! The kids spent a large part of the morning in the beans, we spent a lot of time out in the patch with our neighbors, and then we all hit the maze and we actually made it all the way through for the first time!  Our friend Eowyn took Phia and Donavan to the "corn shooter" where they shoot corn from a cannon into the field...she LOVED IT! And we ended the afternoon at the play ground inside the farm area.  Such an awesome trip and Bentley managed to go the entire day without a nap!! When we got home we decorated our pumpkins:) 




























 This is how we decorated pumpkins this year! We had each of them pick out a design.  Presto picked Angry Birds, Phia picked a princess and of course Bentley picked "Pika"(Mickey)!! They came out soooo cute!!!

Bentley's 2nd birthday celebration at Farrell's and Mountasia!

Happy 2nd Birthday to the sweetest boy in the world.  Mommy and Daddy are so proud of you!!
This year we decided not to have a big party but rather a very small gathering of family and local friends.  We had an ice-cream party at Farrell's and Mountasia and it's safe to say we are still recovering the next day! What a fun place to celebrate a birthday.  They made the birthday boy feel so super special.  He was in pure awe of his "volcano" ice cream that had a giant flame coming out of the center.  Then they ran around the restaurant blowing a fire horn and beating a drum when the delivered the next HUGE bowl of ice cream called "The Zoo" which has 2 scoops of every kind of ice-cream they sell plus ALL of the toppings! This birthday for Bentley was all about "Pika"which is how he says Mickey(Mouse)!! He was SUCH a trooper for the entire party...loved every minute of it.  We made the mistake of going on the water bumper boats and proceeded to get completely drenched(ahhhh).  We also took Presto and Phia on the go carts which were insane! Mama was very scared so I drove like a grandma but the kids still loved it.









                                         Please look at our precious boy's face!! Pure heaven:)















 This is my "what the heck just happened?" look!!! Auntie Sarah and I got SOAKED on the bumper boats!!
                                                  And the whole bumper boat crew!

 I put on a brave face for these go carts but mama was a scared chicken!!


 



                                  PRESENTING...PIKA!!! He clutched it so tight when he went to bed

 This is Preston's "I think it's so cool that my brother turned 2 so now I can play with all of his toys" look
