ghost and goblins oh my

This is my favorite time of year. The fall air is crisp, the threatening clouds move quickly overhead. Halloween is coming soon and there are so many fun and spooky things to look at in the stores and even on front lawns.

Today, Tara went on a field trip to a petting farm. I couldn't wait to get home from work to hear all about it. She went on a hayride and picked out a little pumpkin. When she told us she "milked a cow," we figured she just watched a farmer do it. But then she explained in detail how the milk splashed on her pants. Wow! She actually milked a cow today. How many of us can say that?

Now we are trying to decide on a Halloween costume. She's pretty sure she wants to be a cheerleader, but a friend at school is going to be a ---yes it's true---butterfly princess. So now Tara is uncertain. She was that last year, but it always sounds good to a pre-school girl. Stay tuned. I promise this will be exciting.
