Perry Pumpkin Patch

We had a great time picking out our pumpkins this year. Sydney went wild at the farm and really got into all the fun.
She loved the maze and kept sneaking off to go through again
She and Pete climbed the hay pyramid,

had wheelbarrow rides

Gracie was smaller than most of the pumpkins, but was not intimidated.

Sad to leave-look at that pout!

Little Buddies

These two are so sweet together! Gracie loves to watch Sydney and Syd loves to put on a show. Sydney also loves looking out for her little sister. Pete and I get such a kick out of watching them interact.

GG's first camp out

We camped just off the coast last weekend for GGs first time. She did great and slept in the same Halloween costume Syd wore her first time camping. The pea pod is the best infant sleeping bag ever-who knew?

You asked for it:

More GG pics. She is growing so fast!

I love that smile!

Couldn't you just eat her up?

Indian Summer

After a fairly cool summer we finally got the hot weather we wanted at the end of September and spent almost every day at the pool for a week. Here are my bathing beauties:

GG's Blessing

We decided to bless Grace in Utah while we were there so both of our families could attend. It was so neat to have our parents and so many of our siblings there. We had a lunch with our families after and Grace got the most attention she has ever received. She loved it and smiled at everyone. Here are some pics of our little angel.

Whirlwind trip to Utah

We were in Utah over labor day for another trip that was just way too short. I think this pic of Pete manning four little girls on the swing-set represents our whole trip-trying to do it all. We always wish we had a little more time to spend with both of our families. We packed in the fun, spending almost the whole time up in Logan, mostly at the pool and the pond. What a great trip!
