tractor heaven

jacob was thrilled to see all the tractors at the pumpkin farm yesterday. we enjoyed a hayride, petting zoo, and muddy corn maze. kate seemed to enjoy herself too, although she did start to get fussy in the corn maze. i guess we weren't getting out fast enough for her. and in her defense, it WAS getting chilly! all in all, a pleasant evening out with the family and friends. i always enjoy bringing home pumpkins to add to the fall ambiance. :)











and while we're on the subject of things orange, can i just say, i am loving the recent victories of the cincinnati bengals! how exciting for a team who is not always been that good, and has spent years losing game after game. keep it up, team. who dey! go bengals!



(sorry to all pittsburgh friends and family, there's always next time.)

and speaking of WINNING, jesse and i are officially addicted to the mcdonalds monoply game. jesse is most convinced that the next time we go, we will be the million dollar winners. ok, maybe next time. no? ok, then definitely the time after that?!
crazy? yes. we went there 3 times this past weekend- yep, friday, saturday, and sunday. so far all we've won is a small coffee or soft drink, and i may have gained a pant size with all the french fries and sweet tea i've consumed. maybe once we win that million dollars i can hire a personal trainer and lose the weight. :)
