Trick or Treat at the Jets

The Jets hosted trick or treat at the facility.  It was a super night filled with lots of fun and lots of candy for our little Ariel and Minnie Mouse butterfly.  The pictures will probably explain it, but poor Lindsey...her Minnie Mouse costume didn't fit.  I put it on her right before we were about to leave and...whoa! Way too small.  Poor thing.  I just couldn't let that go down in the history books, so on our way to the facility we stopped at Walmart and I managed to pull together a butterfly costume.  We still had to take some pictures of the Minnie Mouse costume.  They will probably come back to haunt her someday. :)

Pumpkin Carving

After our trip to the pumpkin patch, it was time to carve our pumpkins.  Whitney loved digging in and Lindsey was skeptical at first, but once she saw her big sister doing it, she was all in.  Whitney picked out the shapes for daddy to carve into the pumpkins.  They loved seeing their jack-o-lanterns all lit up!  And daddy is the best pumpkin carver ever!

Pumpkin Patch

It's pumpkin time!  We had a great time picking out our pumpkins and playing with all the fun stuff they had there.  We even got to see a "celebrity"...hahahaha!

Bye Week

Ben had his bye week last week and we were so grateful that he had Tuesday through Sunday off.  But we were even more grateful that for the first time in Ben's 7 year career that the Bucks were finally home on his bye week!  So we headed back to Ohio last week to spend time with family and friends, but also paid a long awaited visit to Ohio Stadium!
The girls got to experience fun around the farm and the Circleville Pumpkin Show!

Linds was apparently afraid of the tractor, but warmed up when she could go with her daddy
Up, up and away, with a little apprehension

We also made a visit to see my brother and Meghan

And a visit to see Aunt Faythe and Grandma
Whitney went on her first fishing trip with my dad and caught two blue gill.  She said the fish felt "gooey".  I love how proud she is of her little fish.  I remember fishing with my dad feeling the same way! :)
The girls also visited a pumpkin patch with my parents where there was a goat named Whitney!
