Asbury Pumpkin Patch...Take 2!

This afternoon Avery & I joined the Little Leaguers at the Asbury Pumpkin Patch. Since today is her 11 month birthday, we took her picture with the pumpkins. She really loved the hay the best.









Random Fun Shots

Avery LOVES getting into my many bags & pulling everything out. Notice how happy it makes her. :) We love cute bags!


Here she is with Luke, another boyfriend. :) Their date was at Kiko's. Neither of them look too sure of what's going on but they really do love each other!


Aunt Misty has this really cool convertible in her house that is the perfect size for A. Wonder if she will share my love of convertibles too???


Yes, it's a dog bone. Gross, I know, but it was too funny not to take pictures. Maybe she has been watching Ace too much? She loves to get into the pantry & pull bones out of the box.

Asbury Pumpkin Patch

On Saturday, Oct. 17th, we went to the Fall Festival at Asbury Church. I was really excited about taking pictures of Avery in the pumpkins-LOVE fall & all the things that come with it! Here are some shots of her & some friends. The little girl in the pictures with Avery is Alice, her new friend. Alice adores Avery & is so sweet to her. Seeing them together melts my heart.





Isn't this the sweetest?

Mel, Tommy & Baby #2 joined us too!

It's True What They Say...

Time flies when you are having fun! It's been an extremely busy fall season-thus the reason I haven't had the extra few minutes to blog. I failed to make the "I am 10 Months Old" sign for Avery & take her picture & didn't realize it until last week. :( But, below is a perfect shot of her for her 10 month birthday. Every time that she comes into our room, she goes straight to my jewelry box. On this particular day, she even chose a necklace that matched her outfit. Such a fashionista! Other things that she is doing are: cruising along the couch/coffee table, getting into EVERY drawer in the house, babbling constantly, standing on her own for long periods of time, talking to Ace through the window, drinking thorough a straw, & typing. :) She has 3 teeth & is working on getting 3-4 more. Her birthday is one month from today...wow...cannot even believe it. She is an amazing child & continues to be a huge blessing to us each & every day.

Texas Road Trip

We took a little road trip a couple of weeks ago. Our first stop was Austin. We toured the Capitol & had yummy pizza at Brick Oven. Here are some highights!

Patiently waiting for Daddy to check into the hotel


God Bless Texas!

Avery slept all night in the hotel crib!


Messy face


On Friday morning we headed up to Grapevine to visit Aunt Dicey & Uncle Larry & to also go to Grapefest. We enjoyed spending time with them as always!

Mmmm...Can I have a steak?


So sleepy-someone please put me to bed!

Fun times with Aunt Di






Our trip ended with a visit home to see family. Unfortunately, I didn't take pictures there. What a great time we had on our Texas road trip!
