This little boy has Lego issues.

We let Quinn pick out any stuffed animal he wanted and he chose the buddy. This stuffed animal was given to Don and I by mom after Apollo died in 2003 (?). Don and I used to have so much fun with this buddy hiding him in each other\’s suit cases and other funny places to surprise each other. Quinn has also taken a liking to him and was very excited to take him to school for a picnic. He even wore a special tie shirt for the picnic 🙂
It was sprinkling just a tiny bit the day of the picnic and Quinn asked me to use the umbrella, which we didn\’t have in the car. Instead he zipped the buddy up in his jacket to stay dry and warm. This camera-toting mama was sorry I didn\’t capture that image but it was very sweet. Quinn and the buddy had a great time at school and enjoyed a great big cracker for their picnic.
Today when I picked up Quinn from school I found this in his cubby.
Just one more reason to love Sundance.

We are having some unseasonably warm weather so we all went outside to enjoy before it started raining. Our street is a mess with leaves and branches waiting for the town to come by and take them away. But Quinn and Lucas had a great time racing down the driveway and crashing in to the giant leaf pile at the end of the street.
The pumpkin that Quinn painted over a month ago at Terhune Farms has survived the weather and the squirrels. He\’s been asking to make a Jack-o-Lantern so tonight we finally got around to carving our pumpkin. Quinn was telling me exactly how to carve it. The pumpkin had to have two triangle eyes, a triangle nose, and a happy face not a scary one. It was alot of \”Miss Bess said to….\”. And \”Mrs. A said to never touch the stem…\”. It\’s nice to hear him relay what he\’s learned from school.
Here are our two little pumpkins.
