PUMPKIN FARM 2011

WE LOVE the FALL SEASON: Last Saturday we headed to our "Annual Pumpkin Farm Trip". We love our local farm "Bi-Zi" farms. We first headed on a tractor hay ride to get our pumpkins. Mommy had to find the "perfect" pumpkins and Daddy toted them around. Cooper and Daddy then washed them and took them to the van so we could continue to have fun. Cooper and Laney then played, in the hay bale maze, which Laney didn't want to leave. Next was the best part of all... The ANIMALS! They got to feed and pet the animals.

After the farm we headed to our next tradition "lunch" at a restaurant. This year it was Red Robbin. The next evening we carved the pumpkins. Daddy is the carver and mommy is the cleaner. We also made apple crisp for desert and baked the pumpkin seeds for a later snack. Cooper wanted his picture taken in his "Buddy the Dinosaur" costume and Laney was wearing one of Cooper's old Elephant costumes.... Did I say WE LOVE FALL!

We LOVE Soccer

Cooper played on a soccer team fall 2010. This was his first year and he did a good job chasing after the group who were chasing the ball. Most of the kids were 4 years old so he was the youngest on the team at 3 years old. We loved watching him learn and grow in this new adventure. These pictures are of his last game. They got medals for participation. Cooper loves Coach Sydnee. Nana and Papa showed up to see him play his last game. Papa left before we got him in a picture.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Daddy's Birthday Events!

OK... still totally behind on posts... Let's start with Daddy's birthday. Of course this is the one of the funnest birthday's in our family as it falls on Halloween. We had so much fun with carving pumpkins, dressing in costumes (Cooper was an Elephant and Laney a Lady Bug). I made a cake and we had tons of candy from our church's Trunk-or-Treat. We also made chili for the chili cook-off.
