pumpkins!!




It's the team annual trip to the pumpkin patch!! Alex's third year (check out that flashback! wow has Alex grown up!!) to go and Ellie's first. And this year we were joined by Nani and Papa Wes and the Choudhrys! I do admit that I tend to stress about getting "good" pictures BUT I made a mental effort to let go and enjoy the fall fun! Alex wasnt really feeling well but we made him suck it up, sadly. He was a trooper and had fun overall! We bought a pumpkin for each of us and look foward to carving our jack-o-lantern! It happened to be the day of the fall festival there at the church and so they not only had the pumpkin patch but vendors, a fire truck, and a drum school performed. This was the highlight for Alex. He won't stop talking about it! He loves drums!! I suggested that maybe Papa Wes's house be the host for his future drum lessons. ;)



Ellie is just a precious pumpkin! I made her shirt and headband for fun...you know, in all my free time! :) But really, I do enjoy a craft once in a while.
Trying to get a picture with the Grandkids is near impossible...quite humorous really. And so were the cheerleaders!
How much for these pun-kins!?

And I REALLY wanted a picture of my two kids together but that attempt failed. Its a no go. Next year!
