It's Pumpkin Patch Time

This weekend we took girls to the Pumpkin Patch. And by "the girls" I mean Camryn and Emery. Beth and Sarah used to be "the girls", but they've been replaced, plus they are young women now and it's time to pass the title on. Sigh.


We went to Moore Farms, which is a family owned farm in Bullard. I used to take my kindergarten classes out there every fall. They have hay rides, a corn maze, and pumpkin fields. They always sat the kids down and read them a story. Plus there were lots of chickens running around and believe me, kindergartenrs get excited when chickens run around. Where was I?

Oh yes - "the girls" and the pumpkin patch. Here they are. Ready to roll!



We decided that the hayride and corn maze were a little advanced for our group, so we opted for a few photo opportunities instead. Plus we've had a monsoon around here the last few weeks and yes, it was muddy. Very muddy. Can I just say that it isn't easy getting babies to look at the camera and smile? Camryn - Camryn look over here! Camryn?


Here's a cute one.
I like this one too.
He's such a good grandaddy!
Don't you just love the hair?
Isn't she cute!
Before I go, I must include this picture! Beth would want me to, I know. This was taken in October,2003 on an ETCA field trip to the Pumpkin Patch. She looks good with a chicken!

Trunk or Treat 09

Here are a few pictures of "Trunk or Treat" or better yet "Emery's First But Not Last Ballerina Costume Night". Or something like that!

She did great for a long time - just looking around and taking it all in, but then it was sleepy time.


EMERY - you know that Snickers are better than Milky Ways!

Emery Elizabeth Madison

Emery Elizabeth is adorable! We love her so much. Here she is just minutes after she was born on August 17. Her daddy is in love with his little girl. This was taken when she was about a week old - oh the beautiful hair! And yes - we think she's a Mini Matt.

Once again - THE HAIR - so cute. Still just a week old here.
She looks good in any animal print! She got dressed up for our Labor Day party.
Her mommy loves her too.
She loves to wiggle and talk!Don't you just want to kiss those cheeks. I can't get enough of her!
