hello October... oh and goodbye...

Wow, October has come and almost gone...
I haven't even posted pictures of the girls starting school, or of our yearly pumpkin patch trip. So, this is the post folks to play catch up in photos... Here it goes:


Starting School...
 Fall blew in like a breeze (hurricane) that I wasn't expecting and blew me right on over... September began the school year. Here is Miss Bella starting her 3rd grade year of school. I was allowed one photo (no more) it happens to be blurry, but I was also reminded that we get what we get and we don't get upset... (so there ya have it!)

 Unlike her sister, Meritt Rose was more than happy to ham it up for the camera! Starting your second year of preschool is BIG business don't you know.


 What a cheese ball... take another picture Mama. I'm going to soak that up as long as I get it! Because apparently in 4 more years you will be too cool for me! :)


 Meritt is indeed having roaring fun in the 4 day 4's. She is doing so well. If you would have told me a year ago, what a year could bring, I would have told you that you were CrAzY! She is making friends, she is excited each and every day about school, and she loves both of her new teachers...
 Seriously, look at that smile - could she be any more excited? This was her first official day without mom (the first day is a short meet and greet with Mama's by their sides!)
 She requested I take her in, and we got there, and I got a --- bye mom, see ya later...
(a bit different than a year ago...!)
 Each day I pick her up, I love hearing all the stories. What fun to be four years old!



The Pumpkin Patch...
 Something we do every year, is go out to the pumpkin patch...

This year I put my big girl (mama) panties on and took the kiddos by myself out to my hometown, for some good old fashioned fall fun!

There were piggies to pet (okay watch sleep)

 Goats to feed...

 Meritt loved this part a lot... she made friends with the boys (as she called them)!

 We took a hay wagon (tractor) ride through the corn to the pumpkin patch...

 What a beautiful day we got. What a lovely place.... sometimes I miss the country and itty bitty city I came from!

 tromped through the field to check things out...

 Smiles were all around...
 I said hello to the egg laying chickies...


Then we found a Daddy pumpkin, a Mama pumpkin, a Bella pumpkin, a Meritt pumpkin, and 4 small animal pumpkins... our porch is filled!

Can you believe September and October have come and almost gone already??? I'm in a bit of disbelief!
