Elmo!

Diana took Erin and Abby to see Sesame Street Live on Tuesday. We met at Burger King so the kids could play together beforehand in the Play Place.  The kids had a blast together and talked the whole ride home all about Elmo.  Bless Diana for taking two kids by herself!

Erin Turned 4!

Almost a month ago! Yikes! I've been terrible about updating. We had a great time at her birthday party. It was Rapunzel themed and Erin's favorite part was her cake. :)

Really Excited to Open Her Presents from Her Mom & Dad!

New Year's Eve

As is our annual tradition, we headed down to Lakeville to ring in the new year with the Weatherly's.  My brother and Taylor made the trip with us. We had a great time with great friends!

Pumpkin Patch

A few weekends ago, we had our annual trip to the pumpkin patch. Unfortunately "our" pumpkin patch on Bertrand closed for good this year and we had to find another spot for our tradition.  I found a half off deal on WNDU for Matthys Farm Market.  We got 8 pumpkins, 8 popcorns, 8 drinks, 8 cornmazes, 8 hayrides and 8 petting zoos for $36 ("Market Value" for this was $88!) So we got a pretty good deal.  The pumpkin patch was a lot of fun and we will probably continue our tradition there this year on.
