Whitfield Pumpkin Patch
We wanted to get some pictures of the kids with pumpkins, so we dressed them up in cute, matching Halloween outfits, loaded up, and headed out to Whitfield Farms, which is about 20 miles north of where we live. We had a good time, and each of us got a few pumpkins to take home. We'll definitely return next year!
Brett has been out of town since Thursday, so it was all of us, minus him. He went to Dallas for the Neil Diamond concert. That was his birthday present from his parents. Today, he went to the Stars game. Except for the fact that he hasn't been with Ayla and me, it's sounding like it was a great birthday weekend for him! Since placing these tiny pumpkins out, Ayla continually goes over and takes them all out of the basket that's on the floor. The other one is higher than she can reach. Another day or two of this and the existing one that's on the floor may be too high to reach, too. :+} She tries to say pumpkin, but it sounds more like "umpin." 






They had horses, a donkey, geese, goats, and a variety of other animals. The horses were close enough for the kids to touch. 
The long road beside Whitfield Farms. Obviously, not a heavily traveled road or else we would not have allowed our children to wander aimlessly down it. :+]
Jackson was sweet and wanted to hold Ayla's hand!
One of the few pictures we have that both of them are actually almost looking at the camera. Gone are the days when we could place them some where, and then just make funny faces to get them to smile for the camera. They now have a mind of their own, and they are able to get up anytime they are "over" our photo session, which happens quite frequently I'm afraid! :+}





Picture #2 where they are both looking at the camera. :+}






After the pumpkin patch, we had dinner at a recently opened cafe in downtown Milton. As you can tell, the kids had their dinner in their strollers. Don't mind Ayla with her leg propped up... she's going to be comfortable while she eats her grill cheese sandwich!
They were having a "Music in the Park" night off the boardwalk that fronts the river. We headed down there for a little while, but it was much cooler than we anticipated and the kids were pooped, and so were the adults!
Ayla is trying to "figure out" her glow stick!
Here she is "rockin" with Uncle Justin, who decided tonight that he was going to be the one to take her to her first concert! :+)

Hi! Thanks for the kind message! I am delighted that you are putting our blog on your page! Thanks! I will add you to my page too. None of our friends have a blog so you will be the first one I add! I love all the pictures you post. Ayla's adorable. . . I do hope we can get together in the near future. I'm in the midst of figuring out when the next time I'll be able to go to Texas will be. Maybe we can coordinate something. :-) A mini reunion!
Love, angela
