Our trip to the Pumpkin Patch.....

I took the kids this morning to a pumpkin patch at a church near here. It was cute and fun to take pictures of them. Hudson picked out a pumpkin the moment we got there. His name is Spooky the Pumpkin. He wants us to make a Jack-O-Lantern out of that little thing. I guess we'll give it a try! This week is busy for Matt. He's been in Waco and now Houston. So it's been just the 3 of us. We are doing our best to stay busy! After the pumpkin patch we went to La Cantera and walked around for a while. I got Harper some really cute shoes and shopped for a dress for her. We are having our pictures taken in November so I am trying to get our outfits figured out. The problem was that every dress I tried on her looked sooooo precious. It's pretty sad when you seek advice from a 3 year old. I asked Hudson which one was his favorite, and he looked at me like I was nuts. He obviously did not care much. He was like me and said 'all of them." They put all 3 on hold for me to let me decide and come back tomorrow. Ohhh the decisions! We have ladies class at church tomorrow (which I LOVE) and then I'll be busy getting us all ready for ACU's Homecoming. It's our BIG 5 year reunion! I am looking forward to seeing friends and family. It'll be great catching up. We will be hitting all the highlights of the weekend...carnival on Friday, parade, chapel, football game, and our reunion dinner. I have not decided whether or not I want to go to the Kojie breakfast.........I remember last year everyone saying don't bother that it's lame. I may decide last minute to go, but right now it's up in the air. We are so excited to go back to our "home away from home." Some of my best memories are there.

Sooooooo here are the pictures from this morning. A few of my favorites!! I took 59 pictures. I could not believe it when I got home to download them.....what did we do before digital cameras???? That would have been a lot of wasted film!


2 pictures of me with the kids. Such a rare opportunity!



My little pumpkins.

I love this one.....she looks so sweet in it.



Sweet Hud and his goofy grin with the frown. He really was so good about sitting for me and 'smiling' for the camera!



She really did like him holding her.......yeah right!

Hud with Spooky.

My handsome Hud!

This picture I told him to hold up his pumpkin so I could take a picture of him with it. Well this was him putting it on his head and letting it fall to the ground. Boys will be boys!!!

  2. LOVE the pictures! So I guess Hud knows what a "patch" is now. His half smile/frown reminds me of Matt's nerdy face he does. :) I love Harpers little pigtails. Looks like y'all had a great time! Good luck carving 'Spooky'.

  5. So fun! I love the pumpkin patch!
    You sound like me. We are getting our pics taken in Nov. and I have been shopping for dresses also. Where did you find some for Harper? Yes, we are coming out on
    Sat. for Homecoming. I don't know if I am going to muster up enough energy to go to breakfast on Sat. either with 2 kids. I have had some people to tell me to go and some people not tell me to go. Not sure what to do. Any advice??
    What a fun weekend and a fun Thursday! Sounds like lots of fun! :) See you this weekend.
