BUSY OCTOBER

We have had a very busy October. Things just seem to be going so fast. This past weekend we didn't do a whole lot. Saturday we managed to make it out to my nephews football game, and lunch with my dad. Then, daddy decided to try to make chicken fried steak for dinner. It was a great meal. On Sunday, my mom helped us clean and watch Maggie. Then we met up with our friends at the pumpkin patch. Maggie didn't take a very good nap so I was worried. She is such an outdoor baby. She did great! Here are some pictures of our fun time. This weekend we are preparing for our big birthday party! Stay posted for some pics of that great adventure! We hope everyone is doing well.

Maggie and her boyfriend Will. They really had a great time digging and playing in the dirt.


We went on a hayride. Maggie really had a fun time. She just loved the wind blowing through her hair!


A fun family photo.


Here is Jenny and Will, Maggie and I, and Stacy and Michael. Stacy is expecting little Jonathan any day now. She was a trooper for hanging out with us.


We had a great day with our friends. I can't wait to do it again next year.

AND THE WINNER IS....

We have officially sent out the winning invitation for Maggie's first birthday party. I can't believe that my baby is almost a year old. It seems as if just yesterday she was born. I remember this time last year sitting and waiting for the big day to arrive. I didn't have anything planned, so I didn't know when the date would come. I do remember all the anticipation of getting ready. Now, I have all the anticipation of getting ready for a party. I am very excited about it and feel it will be lots of fun. I can't wait to celebrate something so special. Take a look at the invite below. The first picture is of the day we left the hospital. She was dressed as a witch. Someone had the nerve to call her a boy. Can you believe it? She doesn't look like a boy. The second picture is of Maggie in her Halloween costume. She didn't like the hood part to much. I got about 3 pics out of her before we went into meltdown mode. The last pic is of her in her Halloween outfit. She loved it, but didn't like the bow. Oh well. We got some good pics, a fab. invite, and a great party planned. I am so excited, and can't wait.
