We made it afterall...

Well, we made it to the pumpkin patch afterall...and KATE LOVED IT! She was running around trying to pick up each of the pumpkins. It was hilarious seeing as to how all of them weighed about as much as she does. I tried to post some video, but now that I've had the third error screen pop up, I am giving up.

Fall is absolutely my favorite time of year in Arkansas. The trees are finally changing into vibrant reds, warm oranges, glowing yellows, and the temperatures are sweet relief after a humid summer.

It's strange to think this is only Kate's second fall--ever. May God grant her 100 more. She is amazing. She's walking and talking like crazy. She has more than 50 words now and has become quite opinionated (I have no idea where she gets that).:) She is pure joy and we can't imagine life without her in it.

Pumpkin Patch???!!!

Ok so I think I am the worst mama ever. I really have thought about the events you should take your toddler to--library for storytime, the park to feed the ducks, play groups, church of course, and not to mention all the the seasonal things--swimming, the splash park, the playground, the PUMPKIN PATCH for those oh so sweet orangy pics, to visit Santa at the mall, the square downtown with all the Christmas lights, etc etc.

Here it is October 24th!!! I had really good intentions of taking Kate to the pumpkin patch to snap some cute pics but it seems life just keeps passing me by. I woke up Sunday with a cough/cold that I still can't seem to shake but is getting better. That came after I threw my neck out and had to visit the chiropractor who informed me I was 26 years late for my first appoinment. This on top of being out of town, then being in town with company, and a filthy house. Not to mention I haven't blogged in a month. Plus, on my to-do list: get broker's license, send care package overseas to friend in Iraq, get stuff together for camping trip with group this weekend, do Bible study for Tuesday night, Wednesday morning, and Thursday night. Find babysitter for docs appointment tomorrow. *YIKES*, get groceries, go to bank, blah blah blah.

Anyway, I guess I should just plan to grow my own pumpkin patch for next year--yea, that would make it easier to make time to get there...:)
