Pumpkin Patch

After our experience this past sunday I don't think we will ever beat last years picture when it comes to the annual pumpkin patch visits. We ventured out to give david an official farm/ pumpkin patch experience this year with miniature horses, pony rides, petting zoo, face painting, and of course pumpkins! Lets just say it was not a big hit.....for David or mommy! He was fussy, we were hot, he was hot, and the girlie-girl side of me came out-mommy and farms don't go well together..ugh! Oh and let's not forget to mention the horrible haircut he got last week...I am seriously going on a haircut strike, but that's a whole other post! Oh well, at least we gave it a shot and we did have a good time with our friends Katie, Mike and their daughter Lachlann...who was also fussy! We are glad we didn't pay the money and wait in line at Dewberry Farms because these kids lasted about 30minutes! Here are some pictures from our adventure.


Note-we are not giving up on the pumpkin picture just yet; we have a fall festival and a visit to the church pumpkin patch next week and are hoping to have better luck!

VEGAS!!

Just got back yesterday from our weekend trip to Vegas. It was much needed mommy and daddy time!! We had a blast, but are definitely exhausted. We flew in Thursday evening and stayed a The Paris Hotel; it had the best deal for the weekend and a great location on the strip. We enjoyed having a little extra time this go around, but had to keep ourselves out of the casino on Saturday night so we ended up seeing Cirque Du Soleil Love at The Mirage. It was amazing!!

Here are just a few pictures from our trip....I did not do a great job of getting out the camera.Thank you Grandma and Tracy for watching our little nugget so that mommy and daddy could have a weekend out to play!


Drinks at Mandalay Bay before we ate lunch at the Burger Bar and hit the tables. Yummy food and the only place we actually walked away with a decent amount of winnings!




The fountains at the Bellagio; our hotel was right across the street and in the three years that we have been to Vegas it was my first time to see them dance to the music. I loved it; could of stayed and watched them all night!



Dinner at Sushi Roku, Caesars Forum Shops. Dave again was a trooper and went out to eat sushi with me. This place had a great view of the strip and excellent sushi.
