Lame Pumpkin Patch

Yesterday (Thursday) i decided after nap time, to take the kids to a pumpkin patch. We were just going to go to one near by and meet up with my parents for supper. Well it was a complete bust. Actually the kids really didn't care but i didn't even feel safe there. Granted the corn maze was all blown over after the hurricane gusts winds we had a couple days ago, it just was not enjoyable.

Both kids are scared of anything and everything. Aside from the pumpkins, which some can scare C'man, they just don't like it. C'man is totally freaked out and Miss A is too b/c he is. Here's a video clip of us in the corn maze.






Today we will go trick or treating. I don't like Halloween either, but it's what kids do. Miss A will have a blast. Here she is trying on her costume this AM:

C'man is 'supposed' to be a lion, the same one he was last year. But i truly don't think he'll get near the thing. I suspect he'll stay in the car while Miss A and I go around. No amount of candy will get him going I'm afraid. Poor child.

And then, at the risk of loosing whatever i can loose by doing this, and at the request of umm..a certain SOMEONE, no names, TIM, I'm posting the video of the afternoon we had a mouse in the house. But first let me say, a mouse in the house, on a farm, is not an unheard of occurrence. They get in thru the tinest holes. I don't set traps (DH's job) b/c if they go off I'll scream so loud you'll hear me where ever you're reading this. BUT i will use a sticky trap. Taren't the best of options b/c the mouse can still get away with that thing stuck to them. With the help of Kdee 'aka' Fat Dog, we caught the damn thing. C'man was no help. There he stood on the chair telling me to get it. After i caught it it was still alive and hanging by its tail, i showed C'man. Now you can watch the video. Now seriously you all HAVE to leave a comment after this. I'm baring my messy house, the rodent in my house, and me freaking out. That ought to warrant something, besides my arrest, right?? Happy watching!!

I'm sorry i can't get this video downloaded. I already had it downloaded prior to trying here. So here's the url and you'll just need to copy and past it into your browser. Trust me it'll be worth it.
