Apple Acres Pumpkin Patch

On October 13th, Michelle, Mom & I took the kids to the pumpkin patch. That place was packed! Now I think we definitely need to skip church and go on Sunday mornings. Not nearly as busy. We still had a great time though!

The kids got to pick out their pumpkins and then pick out a smaller one that they could carry back to the tractor. The big one that Josie picked out for Mommy to carry was huge. But sure was a pretty pumpkin.

Josie picked out a little pumpkin and everyone kept poking fun at the little pumpkin she picked out. It didn't even weigh an ounce and Mommy didn't have to pay for it. But she was super proud of that pumpkin.

I got a photo of Riley & Josie on their own pumpkin but Kayla wasn't going to cooperate with me on her own. So the only way I got a photo of her was with the other two.

Josie & Kayla rode some ponies before we left. While they were riding, Josie's pony made a neigh sound and shook, Kayla was behind her on her pony, got to laughing and then asked Josie how she got her horse to do that. Course we all laughed and the people running the horse ride thought it was pretty funny too.

Update No. 1

Well I have lagged again. No excuses, just poor planning on my part and didn't feel like it. :-)

Anyway, I bought one of the little pools at Kmart this spring and it turned out to be a really good idea. Josie thoroughly enjoyed it and it was so nice not having to worry about her, cause she could touch. That doesn't really sound good, I still worried about her but was able to enjoy it cause she could touch. There that's better!

Precious Little Musketeers

I went over to Michelle's on October 4th and took some photos of the kids with the leaves. They all did really well cooperating with me. Usually I have to bribe Kayla & Riley, but they were both into it and kept posing and then yelling take my photo! It makes it so much easier when they cooperate and we got some really cute photos!

Bloomington Fire Department Field Trip - Sherwood Oaks Christian School

On September 27th, Josie had her first field trip with her pre-school. Mommy rode along on the bus and helped with the kids. We went to the Bloomington Fire Station downtown. Josie did really well until one of the firemen went to put on their uniform they wear during fires. She didn't like that all that much. There were a few tears, but it didn't last long once she saw some of the other kids around him.

She said she had a really good time and I was thankful to have a job that I could take off to go share this moment with her.

Merged at Last

Okay, so now I have everyone of my blogs I have ever had all merged here on this one. The photos from Blogger look like doodoo on Wordpress. But it's alright for now!

I'm just glad to have it all in one place. And from now on, this blog will reflect what is going on in "OUR" lives, not just by business. So from time to time, you will see a portrait session that I have taken, or you may see something I have baked. This blog will most definately be a memory keeper of Josie's childhood above and beyond anything else. I hope to have some followers along for our journey, but if not then that's alright as well.

Here's to you Sixtyone20, and I hope to be able to keep you up to date!
