At the Tree Farm

We went to pick our Christmas Tree this weekend. Bobby picked a great tree for us! Poppop put Bobby in one of the holes created when they dug a tree - Bobby seemed to have a bit of trouble getting out! Of course, his favorite part of the adventure was getting to sit on the tractor!

Thanksgiving in North Carolina

We took our Thanksgiving vacation this year in North Carolina, to see Mr. Jim's family. We did the usual sight seeing, shopping and eating! Bobby got to see Santa!

Of course, we had to go bowling, it's a sort of tradition we have. Bobby loves to bowl, and actually scored pretty close to Mommy (of course, Bobby had bumpers to help him!)

After getting a few pointers from Mr. Jim and Jimmy, Bobby turned out to be a pro!

And what trip to N.C. would be complete without visiting with the animals - Here are Repete and Charlie!

The Colors of Autumn!

Well, Autumn has finally arrived and I saw this amazing tree outside my school offices! And I've always wanted to try posting a movie, so here goes. Let me know what you think... there's not alot of action, so don't get your hopes up!

The Cows Again!

We took some time to go see the cows again! There are 4 new calves - but they couldn't muscle past the girls to be fed at the fence!

Looks like Bobby is really getting to know the Girls! He thinks they're slobbery - but it looks like they think he's yummy!

And of course, the horse got jealous that the cows were getting all the attention, so we brought her some carrots, which Bobby thought were yummy and he started munching on them too!

Baking with Mommy!

Mommy got the itch to bake, which is one of the things Mommy likes to do best! This time it was Mommom's Pumpkin Bread recipe. Bobby was a huge help - he especially enjoyed greasing the pans, which is good because Mommy doesn't like that part AT ALL! The pumpkin breads came out delicious - even without the cloves, which Mommy didn't have. And Bobby got to use the apron from his Halloween costume!

Happy Halloween!

Bobby and John on Halloween! Bobby was cooking up some Halloween fun, and John looked like a white ranger, although he had some different name for his costume. Bobby didn't mind Halloween as much as last year, which was a little traumatic. Maybe he's growing into it!

The Pumpkin Show!

That's one BIG pumpkin! We went to the Pumpkin Show at the local fairgrounds and found this HUGE pumpkin! It was on a scale, which of course I can't remember now, but it weighed ALOT! Poor Bobby was looking into the sun for the picture!

There were some animals at the Show - not too many though and mostly small ones. Bobby got to feed this little goat up-close and personal! Then they all started talking to each other and it got quite noisy!

Bobby got to ride a pony and he smiled and laughed the whole way around! There were alot of different ponies - Bobby's was very cute and well-behaved! It was a beautiful day to be at the Pumpkin Show - the weather and food was excellent! We ended our adventure with some Pumpkin Ice-Cream! Yum!
