Aiden Fall '08

One of our friends is starting to get back into photography and wanted to take some pictures of Aiden.  I was so excited how they turned out.  I had a hard time narrowing down which ones I wanted to put on here.  I know there are a lot, but I just wanted to share.  I thought he did a GREAT job capturing Aiden's personality.

If you are local I would HIGHLY recommend using Photo Joe Productions www.joehendricks.com.  He did a wonderful job and was great with Aiden.  Thank you Joe for capturing such special memories.  

Pumpkin Patch and more.....

We had a wonderful weekend.  It's so nice to actually have fall weather and be able to enjoy being outside.  We went with some friends to the pumpkin patch on Sunday.  It was so much fun.  They had so much for families to do with the hay rides, corn maze and tons more activities.  We got there kind of late so we weren't able to do too much, but here are some pictures of what we did get to do.  

Please look at Aiden's face.  He was so excited on the way up there.  He kept turning around and smiling at us.  It was hilarious.  

Still smiling....

We let him out to see the goat.  Every time he sees a four legged furry animal he thinks it's Boo. So he's standing here saying "Boo Boo" and wondering why it won't come up to him!  

His first John Deere ride

"What do I have to push to get this thing to go?"

Happy Birthday Isabella

Our sweet little niece turned 2.......3 weeks ago!  We went to Memphis to celebrate and I'm just now getting pictures up on the blog.  I know, I know you're probably thinking "why even bother?", but we do have some loyal viewers that like to see what's going on even if it is 3 weeks late (thanks Mom, thanks Margie).  I do promise to get better at posting things right after they happened.  Here are some pictures from the party.

Aiden LOVED this slide and swing set.  He couldn't get enough of it. 

"Can somebody please just help me up?"

"Wow Isabella, how'd ya do that?"

Laughing at his cousin some more

Isabella giving Aiden a kiss......so sweet

Kristen made these adorable aprons for all the kids with cupcakes on the front and all the kids decorated their own cupcakes. Aiden was more interested in the sprinkles though than the cupcake.

"HEY MOM!"

Isabella got this neat tricycle and she was telling all the other kids to wait their turn...

Of course Aiden had to try it out, too.  I think he has some growing to do before we get him one!

Florida 2008

Here are the pictures from Florida. Sorry it has taken so long to get them on here. Jonathan's parents are home on furlough until March and decided to take the whole family to Florida in September. We rented a beach house in Destin and it was amazing. I'm still missing it and it's almost been a month since we went.
