Pumpkin Patch 2012

Monday afternoon was beautiful, so we decided to head to the pumpkin patch as soon as school was out.  We headed to Pome on the Range in Homewood this year, since it was just down the road from where Clint was working.  It was a bit of a hike to the patch, but we got some great pumpkins!  We also picked up some mums to put with our fall decorations, as well as some apple wine!








 
After we left the pumpkin patch, Robbi went back to the farm with Daddy to help him finish up his chores.

Grayson turns 2

Robbi attended her cousin, Grayson's, second birthday party this afternoon!  He had an Elmo theme, with lots of fun activities!  The weather was perfect, so Robbi was able to play on the slide in the back yard, and then eat out on the patio.  After the cookout, we moved inside to create birthday hats, color, put on tattoos, face paint, eat dessert, and open presents!  It was a great party- Robbi had so much fun!  Happy Birthday, Grayson!

All done!

And some more dessert... she loved the marshmallows!

 
Ready to sing Happy Birthday!

 
Make a wish!


 
I tried to keep Robbi awake long enough to see her Daddy when he got home, but you can see here that she was clearly too tired from all that partying!

Can I have S'more please?!

Tyler and Kasi attended a wedding Saturday night, so Robbi got to hang out with her cousins, Ryen and Avery.  We had planned to start a fire in our new fire pit, and we were determined not to let the rain stop us.  Ryen and I headed to Wal-Mart and bought our supplies, and returned home just after the rain stopped.  We knew we had just enough time to get outside and make some smores before the next set of storms rolled through.  I took the pictures on my phone, in the dark- so they didn't turn out too well!


Here is Clint starting the fire...

 
And Ryen posing for a picture with his marshmallows

 
Sorry, this is the best one I got of Avery!
