Lotus is obsessed with ALL things Halloween. She loves telling "spooky stories". Her favorite story to tell goes like this: "One Halloween night, Lolo and Ollie ate the wicked witch!" Sometimes, they get eaten and sometimes they do the eating. She loves wicked witches!
We have really been taking advantage of the beautiful fall weather. Last weekend we went to Schaake's pumpking patch in Lawrence. Lolo and Ollie got lost in the haunted maze and launched pumpkins with a sling shot.
One of her other favorite Halloween things to do is carve pumpkins. Her Daddy and her carved a wicked witch (what else?) and it came out really good! Last year Aunt B/Uncle Wes/Ollie gave us a giant inflatable stack of pumpkins for Jeff's birthday. We thought it was kind of silly and kept meaning to return it, but we're glad we didn't. Lolo is obsessed with it. She has to say good morning and goodnight to "Mr. Pumpkin".
Today my work sponsored a day at Deana Rose Farmstead. The weather was awesome, we went on a hayride to "Pumpkin Hallow", fed the goats and mined for gold.
P.S. Here's one last cute Lolo story. Lo spilled a full glass of cold milk on her lap while she was eating lunch. As I was cleaning her up, she was kind of whining a little, so I said, "Lotus, use your words." And she said, "Shiver me timbers!" clear as day. So hilarious!P.P.S. Lotus has a new baby cousin, Brock! We can't wait to meet him! Congratulations Argo's!
