BEGINNING OUR PUMPKIN PATCH

MARCUS STARTED PLANTING OUR PUMPKINS LAST NIGHT AND THEY LOOK AMAZING - WE ARE ALSO GOING TO DO ZUCCHINI AND SQUASH. WE HOPE THAT AT LEAST ONE OF OUR PUMPKINS GROW - WE STILL HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO AND PUT OUR FENCE UP SO THE DEER DON'T EAT THEM ALL :)

D-DADDY AND HIS GALS

I JUST LOVE THIS PICTURE - MY DAD SURPRISED MY MOM AND MY GIRLS FOR LUNCH A COUPLE OF WEEKS BACK - THEY JUST ADORE HIM AND JULIA CALLS HIM HER PRINCE CHARMING!

SIX FLAGS AND HEAT!

WELL WE TOOK OUR BIG GIRL TO SIX FLAGS ON FRIDAY AND WE MET OUR FRIENDS THERE. WE STARTED OFF WITH RIDING THE DELONIGA AND WERE DOING GREAT THEN WE DECIDED TO GO ON THE SCREAM MACHINE - YUP I SAID SCREAM MACHINE. I COULD NOT BELIEVE THAT MEGAN WAS GOING TO GO ON IT - WELL HALF WAY THROUGH THE TOP HILL - SHE FREAKED AND SO DID I. WE FINISHED THE RIDE AND I STARTED TO FEEL BAD - SO I ENDED UP IN THE INFIRMARY AT SIX FLAGS WITH HEAT ISSUES - PROBABLY DID NOT HELP THAT WE HAD A HEAT INDEX OF 105 WHERE WE WERE AT. WE HAD TO LEAVE EARLY SO MARCUS IS GOING TO BACK WITH MEGAN IN THE FALL!

SWEET FARMER NEIGHBORS

WHEN I GOT HOME LAST NIGHT I WAS CHECKING MY MESSAGES AND GOT A MESSAGE FROM MY SWEET NEIGHBORS. THEY HAD LEFT US SOME GOODIES AT OUR FRONT DOOR. ONCE I OPENED THE BAG I FOUND GREEN PEPPERS, CUCUMBERS, ROMA TOMATOES, SWEET VINE TOMATOES AND HOMEMADE PICKLES WITH DILL. WE WERE THRILLED AND EVERYTHING WAS SO BEAUTIFUL. THIS YEAR WE ONLY HAVE GROWN HERBS AND NOW ARE READY TO GROW PUMPKINS AND BUTTERNUT SQUASH FOR THE FALL - SO THIS WAS A TREAT. I LOVE HAVING NEIGHBORS WHO LOVE TO GARDEN :)

GLOW IN THE DARK GIRL

WE HAVE BEEN ON THE HUNT FOR GLOW IN THE DARK PJ'S FOR JUJU - AND WE FINALLY FOUND SOME. SHE JUST LOVES THEM - ACTUALLY IT HAS BECOME HER NEW UNIFORM. THE FIRST NIGHT I WAS A LITTLE FREAKED CAUSE SHE CAME DOWNSTAIRS AND I WOKE UP AND ALL I COULD SEE WAS A HEADLESS SKELETON - HA HA HA! ANYWAYS HER NEW NAME IS "SKELETOR"
