Surprise visit from DADDY!

Erik drove with a few other guys from Fallon this past weekend to surprise us with a weekend visit...the drive took 7 hours, but it was well worth it to see his face and to spend some time with him...he was super-excited to see hislittle girls!

Yummmy! Spaghetti!

Baxter, Madison, and Jack...

A few months ago, all my friends were pregnant, then all at once, all these babies were born! Baxter (in black) is Courtney's baby and he was born first, then Jack (in yellow) is Janelle's baby, then Madison (in the middle) who is Michelle's baby girl...

Happy Birthday Michelle!

We celebrated last Wednesday with a little party here at the house...There are SO many October B-days! Erik's was on the 23rd, Joe was the 25th, Michelle, the 24th, Kip was sometime last week and Jake's was the 28th! Crazy....

Passed out....

Lucy wanted to ride by herself!

Sharing a ride...

Stopping to smell the roses....uhh, actually i think those are azaleas!!

Walking the streets os Visalia with Grandmommy...

How tall this fall??

Hmmmm, according to this, a little over two feet!!

Our Official "Fall" pic...although I couldn't get them to look at the camera!! The scarecrow was MUCH more interesting...

Lucy, peering over the side!! She kept playing peek-a-boo with me!!

Ready to set off in the wagon to find the PERFECT pumpkins!!

Oh my gosh!! Casper, the ghost was sitting in this pumpkin patch!

What's this huge pumpkin face doing here??

Walking through the pumpkin patch..

The Pumpkin patch we went to was up the road, past Hanford, in Visalia...It is called Vossler Farms and it was this super-cute place with little red wagons to carry around your kids and your pumkins, a hay ride, petting zoo, tons of pumpkins, and a HUGE maze...every year they make the maze into a different theme...I think this year's maze was an Egyptian Sphinx?? I am not sure cause we did NOT brave the corn maze...Michelle, Madison, and Ben did and it took them an HOUR!! so we didn't think the girls would last and I didn't think being stuck in the middle of corn stalks with two screaming babies would be too fun!! But we had a good time running around and taking pics...here they are posing as mice!

Lucy and Grandmommy!

Lucy liked the pumpkins too!

Here is Sophie, checking out some pumpkins!!

Pics from the Pumpkin Patch!!

She did cheer up for her Mommy one time!!

Sicky Lucy...

Finally the girls are getting over their little colds...this day was probably the worst for poor Lucy...she just sat there and looked like she lost her puppy!!! Poor baby...

Lounging on the couch..

Lucy standing and looking sicky (they have been suffering from a little cold this past week)
