Some October Fun

 Loyd is having fun giving Owen and Maeve piggy back rides around the house now.  He feels very grownup being strong enough to run them up and down the halls while they giggle and try to impeade his vision with their tight grips for dear life.  Silly kids.  :)
 
Maeve and Owen helping Mommy make lots of yummy pumpkin flavored goodies for dinner and snacking. 

Here's just a samping of the many pumpkin themed dishes Owen and Maeve helped me make one afternoon.  We made pumpkin chocolate chip muffins, pumpkin chocolate chip bread, pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, pumpkin dream pie, pumpkin and chicken stew, and roasted pumpkin seeds.  It was a pumpkin extravaganze of yumminess.  :)
