A Trip To McCalls's Pumpkin Patch - Oct 2007

Today we took a trip to McCall's Pumpkin Patch. We went with a bunch of our friends. It was a very cold and windy day, but we all had a blast. We went looking for pumpkins and ate a yummy lunch. The kids fed the animals and played around the farm.
Here's the gang!

On the way to find a pumpkin!

Mackenzie found a pumpkin she wanted to take home (of course...she wanted to take them all home, even the ones that were brown and mushy! )

Cameron quickly found a pumpkin that he liked. Not too big...since we told him he had to carry his own pumpkin back to the van!

We found some yummy corn on the cob. We were going to try a bite of Kenny's corn, but it didn't even make it back to the table. We sent him right back to go and get an ear of corn for each of us!
"Look Mom, a chair just my size!"

"Okay Mom, I'm ready to go home now"

Trip to New York - Oct 2007

You can see the spray from Niagara Falls behind us. What perfect weather for seeing the sites around New York!
One of the main reasons for our trip to NY....going to the Buffalo_Dallas NFL game. The "Mother Ship" was calling me home. Poor Buffalo ended up losing by only a point. I wasn't sure Kenny (decked out in his Cowboys jersey) was going to make it back to the car in one piece. Sorry...no pictures of Cowboys gear on this blog...only Bills lovers here!

We also went to a hockey game while we were in town. GO SABRES!!!!!!!!!!

Here we all are at the Anchor Bar - Home of the orginal Buffalo Wing! Unlike Heather (according to her blog they only claim to)...I think they did originate here!

Cameron thought the suicide wings were a bit warm!

Savy was in charge of the register at the museum. She made sure everyone paid for their groceries before we left the store. It looks like Savy might have over charged Cameron.

Miss Mac loved shopping at the "Kids Wegmens" at the Strong museum of Play in Rochester. Mackenzie carefully picked out 7 boxes of mashed potatoes and 4 cloves of garlic (even though there were strict instructions to only have 5 items in her cart). She follows directions as well as her Mother.
The family in front of the famous Charlie the Butcher in Buffalo, NY. He is most famous for his Beef on Weck! YUMMY, YUMMY!

Here we are on the Maid of the Mist boat ride at Niagra Falls. Mackenzie thought being sprayed with water was GREAT. She started to stick out her tounge and catch the water in her mouth!
