Fall Festivities

This weekend started off with my baby boy turning a big 3 months old. We went and had his milestone pictures taken by JCPenney Portraits. Although he decided to smile and giggle before and after the picture shoot, but NOT during; we still managed to get some good pictures. Two of his bigger cousins Z. and N. also came along and had their pictures taken with him. They looked so handsome sitting there together. Not sure why, but the photographer only got 2 poses with the 3 of them.

Z., Kyler and N.:


On Sunday, we headed north for the annual Pumpkin Patch Festival at Hunsader Farms with Gramma; Uncle T., Aunt T., and the "C" cousins. The past few years it has gone from rainy, to sticky HOT and now windy and cold. Of all the others, we will take the cold and windy any day compared to hot and sticky or cold and rainy.

Gramma and Kyler:


BBug just HAD to dance and so Kyler and I just HAD to join her. She was doing moves I've never seen before and having such a ball with it. After dancing we went to feed the animals. The goats were loving Buddy Roe and kept licking his hands....(Buddy Roe does taste kinda sweet..that's why Aunt Sherbee loves to give him kisses!!) Then they fed the rabbits (I stayed clear so I didn't have an allergic reaction); then the chicken and peacock and BBug let out a loud scream when the horse took the food from her hand.


She was 'twirling' Kyler and me:

From there we went and let BBug and Buddy Roe ride the pony's. I wasn't standing far enough back and took off the head of the horses on some of the pictures...sorry. But the main focal was the kids enjoying their pony rides. Like Aunt T. said...Papa Pat needs some ponies at his house! Kyler slept through the pony rides and even though he is big for his age, I think he would have been too small to enjoy them.

After the pony ride, BBug needed to have her face painted. She is ALL about the Florida Gators, so she chose one that had Orange and Blue. It was so cute on her. While they were standing in line to get her face painted, Gramma, Chris and I took the boys for a stroll through the arts and crafts and found BBug a purple "crown if you will" and a matching bracelet and Buddy Roe got a blanket. Kyler was too small for any of the toys they had and since he has a gazillion blankets, we didn't get him one.

We then headed over to the pumpkin patch to take some family photos and to find a pumpkin to take home. We got a couple good pictures of the family and then went to find our pumpkins. We found Kyler "THE PERFECT PUMPKIN" all around, size, shape, color, stump...It had the works. But somehow it fell off the stroller and none of us saw this happen, including me who was pushing the stroller and so the pumpkin fairy took it away. Thankfully Kyler is too young to even know so that he wasn't upset, but Mommy sure was. I wanted to have his picture taken with his very first pumpkin. Daddy said we will go to the store tonight and find him one that is 2nd best! I just wish I would have gotten a picture of it cause it really was the perfect pumpkin.

Uncle T., Buddy Roe, Aunt T., Mommy, Kyler, BBug and Daddy:




As we were getting ready to start winding down for the day, we moseyed on over to enjoy a hay ride (even though I'm allergic to hay). While standing in the long windy line, we were trying to put two boys to sleep and I played peek-a-boo with BBug. She wanted to take a ride in Kyler's stroller. Kyler went to sleep right before boarding the wagon and the hay ride put Buddy Roe out. While we were standing in line, there was an old firetruck that had a pumpkin launcher attached to it. The sirens blared and off the pumpkins went. Uncle T said it was so cool, that he needed one of those toys for his house, but the noise of the air compressor did not agree with BBug and she will NOT be having that at her house.


BBug playing peek-a-boo:


We went back for one more dance or two and then headed home. Chris, Kyler and I took Gramma home where we met up with Papa Pat. Kyler had to tell him all about his day. We ended the evening with dinner out and headed home. It was a great weekend.
