Fall Fun!

We have had a great time so far this fall!! We have gone to the pumpkin patch, the state fair, Blue Bird Gap Farm (again), Newport News Park Fall Festival and apple picking to name a few. We also got to celebrate Daddy's birthday, twice!!

Pumpkin patch time! They loved pulling the pumpkins off the vine!


That looks like a good one Daddy! 

They had a hay maze that the girls loved!

Anna Kate loved picking the hay off the bales.

"This way Anna Kate!"

Cutest UVA cheerleaders, go hoos!


Looking at the baby chicks hatching at the state fair.

Gobble, gobble!

A lot bigger pumpkins then we saw at the pumpkin patch.

Playing in the corn!

Claire got to pick a ride...Dumbo!

She loved it! 



Fried oreos...yum!

Playing chase with Daddy!

Visit to Blue Bird Gap Farm. 

Hello there llama!
Lots of swinging!



Grammie found Kristen and I's old baby doll carriage and Claire was in seventh heaven playing with it!

Visit to Newport News park for the Fall Festival. It was gorgeous out on the lake!


Here they come!

Love these girls!
Visit to the petting zoo at Maymont

We even got to see a real bear at Maymont, not in the petting zoo! 


Daddy Birthday party #1 with Mema and Pepe!

Apple picking in Charlottesville at Carter's Mountain!


Aunt Kristen even came all the way from NYC for the fun!!

Grammie wore the perfect shoes for the muddy hills :)

Apples!!!



And the best part...the apple cider doughnuts fresh and hot!

Anna Kate was a fan too!

And apple cider!
The gang!

Cutie pie!

Sweet sisters!

Anna Kate is 15 months old!

Anna Kate turned 15 months on September 27th, 2014. She is such a happy, fun toddler!

She is talking up a storm! Some of her words now are: apple, ball, sissy, mama, dada, bubbles, balloon, up, eat, book, walk, cheese, egg, and please.

The animal sounds she knows are: baaa, moo, tweet, meow, roar, oink and ruff.

She loves to hold Molly's leashes on our walks, go down the slide,swing, play with baby dolls, read books, push the toy lawn mower outside, pick flowers and baths!

Favorite foods now are raisins, eggs, pancakes, puffs and apples.




Playing school with sissy!

She looks so big!!!! Not ready for that at all yet!

Happy, happy girl!
