halloween & hurricane sandy

we love to visit corn mazes in the fall. we usually go to a big one, but with all of the stuff going on this year, we opted to visit a small, local place with some friends. at the end of the maze there was a big slide that went into a pool full of corn. wes loved it!


it was even more fun once it got dark.


while the kids played, we checked out the pumpkins, gourds and apples.



on the way home, we made a quick stop at aunt tracy's house. she was having a halloween party at her house. 


a couple of days later, hurricane sandy brought high winds to our area. even though the coast of NC is about 250 miles away, we still had extremely high winds and cold temperatures. we came home monday evening to find wes' swingset blown over. it was 6 years old and not the best quality, but i was able to swing on it - so it had to be ok :)


 it also blew everything on our porch into a corner.


sunday & monday night the winds blew super hard all night. the big trees around our house were swaying and we were praying that one wouldn't fall over on our fence or house. 


 we're trying to stay warm and getting ready for trunk or treat tomorrow night! i'll be a pirate and wes will be a clown :)
