We made a last mintue decision NOT to go to Dallas for the Baylor-Tech Game at the Cotton Bowl this weekend. While we were sad to miss out on the fun of the fair and football, we needed a restful weekend at home with just our little family!!!
Saturday morning we headed to the Pumpkin Patch! We got there bright and early so we could beat the crowds, and so we could get home in time to watch the BU game on TV :)
Our Punkins
Caroline LOVED all the scarecrows everywhere
Her first ride on a horse! The horse's name was Kitty, and Caroline had the time of her life riding her!
The hayride
The barrel train ride.
feeding the goats
A failed attempt at a picture of the kiddos. This is when we realized it was tiem to go home ;)
So we loaded up our pumpkin purchases and headed out!
After the pumkin patch, we came home and fired up the smoker. Jon made ribs, a pork butt, and homemade mashed potatoes! We spent the res tof the day with the doors and windows open, playing outside, and watching football. If only the Bears had won, it would have a been a PERFECT day ;)
After her nap today, Caroline only wanted her DADDY to get her out of bed, so he asked that we document "the day she became a Daddy's girl" because she chose him over me ;) Of course, she has actually ALWAYS been a daddy's girl!
*A few disclaimers about this pic:-Jon is sweaty because he just finsished mowing the yard.
-The walls in Caroline's room are currently painted in a blue cammo pattern. Soon, they will be repainted green :)
-Yes, Caroline was still wearing her PJ's at naptime. We had a bit of a lazy Sunday due to a fairly sleepless Saturday night :( Miles has a cold and is teething, which meant no sleep for Mama. Luckily, After I fed him this morning, Daddy took over all partenting duties and I got to sleep in and read in bed until 11:30!!!!!!!!! We didn't make it to church, but it was AMAZING to get caught up on sleep so I can function this week :) Thank you Daddy!!
-Don't you just love the way C is looking at her Daddy in this pic? I sure do love these two :)
That's all folks!
