Pumpkin Patch 2009

We went to the pumpkin patch today to get Jacob & Addison's Fall pictures

It was very hard to get a picture with both of them smiling at the camera but I tried....

Baton Rouge Zoo

Lance has been working in Baton Rouge, so we drove over one Saturday for a visit.

Took a trip to their local zoo, was a little disappointed (a lot of walking with very few animals) - but we had a great time anyway.

Jacob & Lance

Addison & me

We espically liked that you could pick up some grass and the giraffes would come to the fence so we could feed them and pet them.

Addison - monkeying around

Addison - swinging like a monkey - she is so strong!!

Labor Day Weekend

We were so excited that Egg, Angie, & Evan decided to come for a visit for Labor Day weekend.

Evan & Angie hanging out

Addison loved helping Angie feed Evan (and eating some of it too!!)

Abby loved Evan too

Jacob with Angie & Evan (and scrappy too)

Can't wait to see you guys again - We miss you

Summer Fun

Just a few pictures from the summer

Jacob's last T-ball game

Zoo Trip for Addison's Birthday

After Addison's birthday party, cousin Sophia stayed the night and the next day we went to the New Orleans Zoo. It rained some that day so I didn't get a lot of pictures.

The kids playing follow the leader

Snack time - waiting on the sea lions to come out

Baby Girl turned 2

I can't believe our baby girl turned 2 (in August)

She is such a big girl now.

I didn't get a lot of good pictures from her party

Here's the star of the show in the birthday hat that I made for her.

I just realized that I didn't have any pictures of Jacob from the party -

this is the only one I could find

Moving on to August

From my list of items that I posted previously to get caught up on, I'm now on August -

First Five Flags speedway in Pensacola to watch some racing on asphalt.

playing with cars

Lance bought Addison her very first late model - which happened to be Bill Elliott

A few minutes later, we see Bill Elliott walk through the stands - his son was racing

Addison & I snuck up to the spotter's box and got Bill to sign her car

My camera was put away when he started walking out - here is the best picture I got.

Here is Addison the next day with her signed car!!

Lilly & Boop Visit.....slideshow

Here is a slideshow of pictures throughout the week.

We are so happy that Mel, Lilly & Boop came for a visit.

We miss you guys so much - and can't wait to see you at the races
