Saturday Farmers Market

This picture sums up the entire morning...


We got delicious organic produce for a fraction of what we would pay at whole foods AND found an amazing local sauerkraut stand AND the kids got to meet the people that grow our food. The kids cuteness always seems to score them free veggies and fruit to snack on too.

Then as we were leaving a balloon artist wanted to know if we knew anyone who could give a good home to some stray balloon flowers.


Later that day, the girls set a trap and snagged a bunny!


And we all fell desperately and hopelessly in love.....

What holiday isn't again?

We skipped the ferry market on saturday because a food blogger convention was in town and we avoid crowds that big ;)

Instead we drove to the farms along the coast.

Pelicans- they got so close to us, but I missed getting a picture because was busy looking with my eyes :)


Bumble enjoying the view...


Ira informing me that the farm fresh strawberries were delicious!!!!








Then we made an impromptu trip to the Santa Cruz mountains--- REDWOODS!!!

They were velvety....












After our little trip we stopped at target and found costumes over 75% off!

Our little garden gnome...


Knight...


How awesome is her face?





Sister wardrobe assistance...





This is the face that Ira said knights make "when they do something cool"





We jumped back into Halloween mode to make treats...








Then they drew spooky pictures...








We ended the night with toy story 3. WATCH IT! We laughed- really hard.... And cried- really hard!

Wednesday!

I pulled a muscle in my neck- I was in visible pain... My girls are so sensitive they picked up on it immediately. Then it became part of their play.


Ira and liv were playing with Madeline... Ira said "look! She is hurt because a lobster pinched her!!!! She's screaming!"





Liv said "oh no! We have to make her feel better!" she was so upset!











Ira said, "I don't want to see this!" and shoved it away.





Then we played catch....





Liv pulled out some dr seuss books...

I read cat and the hat...





When we got to this part where they are upset with the cat in the hat, liv said, "he didn't mean to mama. He didn't mean to fall"





When he left after cleaning up, liv said "look he is so happy now! He's happy mama"






Liv is always like this with books, statues, paintings, etc.

Her first question is "is he/she happy mama?"

Sweet girl.

Strong man...






I read the girls the apple story





Then we peeled and sliced apples...





Revealed the star within...





Made applesauce...





Blackberry applesauce...





Daddy rescued me shortly after...
Making rings out of dollar bills...











And bringing me fresh produce....don't know what's weirder- that jared said "I got you a present to cheer you up!!!" and present me with this-





Or the fact that it worked!

Storytime- it was a seasons/autumn/apple/fall/tree themed night...except for wallE... That just got tossed in.
