Pictures

I had hoped to get this post up earlier but it has been a hard couple of weeks. I called psych yesterday and we had to increase her meds, but I promised a fun post with pictures so I'm not going to talk about that right now.

One of our favorite events each year is a horse show at the barn where Evan rides.  It is called the Spooktacular and besides a competition each person gets to dress up themselves and a horse for a costume contest.  Sometimes when we are pulling out of the parking lot after the event Evan is already talking about his next costume.  His horse was kind of a stinker at this show.  He spooks at a lot of things and was kind of freaked out by the whole thing.  Evan knows him well though so he did his best with him and they did get one really good course in.  He got a first, second, third, and fourth place.  His costume was the 11th doctor and the TARDIS :).






Last weekend we went to a pumpkin patch.  Pumpkin carving happens tomorrow night so I'm sure I will have more pictures!  We found a small pumpkin patch that was not at all crowded.  It didn't have all of the bells and whistles of the bigger ones but it was free and it was fun....good enough for me!





Today was the 50th day of school so all of the first graders came dressed in clothes from the 50s.  I found this great idea on Pinterest to turn a pair of white canvas shoes into saddle oxfords using a sharpie!  I think she looked adorable!

 
 
 

OK I'm off to hang out with my family.  I'll update with pictures again soon and at some point I need to fill you in on Oksana.

I will have to show Zola this as she loves Dr. Who. Loved the pictures and that was such a cute idea you did with the shoes -- I will have to remember that.

Oh. My. GOSH!!! I LOVE Evan's costume! What a great idea. I love Doctor Who! I'm headed to a convention in 2 weeks and I can't wait :)

The pumpkin patch pictures are really cute too, but what I love most (next to the Doctor Who pics) is Anya in her '50s costume! She's adorable! That's a neat idea about the shoes, I love it! :)
