Pumpkin Patch


This weekend our family went to the Pumpkin Patch! We traveled to Burt's Farm in Dawsonville, GA.



The boys had a great time running through all the pumpkins and seeing the different shapes, sizes and colors of pumpkins that were on the farm.




The best part was the hayride. We rode through the popcorn and pumpkin fields. We saw some pumpkins still growing on the vine. The Autumn air was breezy and cool. The tractor carried us over the mountain streams and we even stopped by Autumn and Gourdy's house. Autumn and Gourdy are Burt's talking pumpkins.


We then proceeded on a two mile trip down a winding mountain road. The hayride ended looking down from a panoramic hilltop view of Burt’s farm and Amicalola Falls. We had so much fun as a family...Thanks Daddy for taking the day off so we could all go together!!

I had to add this picture of Jacob so he could have an equal amount of "facetime"

Josh's 2nd Birthday!



This weekend our sweet Joshie turned 2! Friday was his birthday...the five of us woke up and headed downstairs. To Josh's amazement there were balloons, banners, gifts and a singing bear to greet him. We had a great day playing. Mommy's Aunt Prissy came over to help her make Josh's cake for his birthday party. By 4:30, YahYah and Papa were here to continue with the clebration. We had dinner and cupcakes with more presents to open. By bedtime we were exhausted.

Saturday morning we woke up and began preparing for Josh's party. Our friends, Trevor, Mary Catherine, Sarah Frances, Avery, Sebastian, and Audrey came over. All the children had fun making crafts, playing and eating cake. Papa and YahYah stayed until dinner and then went home. We had so much fun...thank you to everyone for helping Josh celebrate.
