Happy Halloween!

Darth Vader, a dinosaur, 2 pirates (one sporting a light saber), a lion, and a bumble bee who refused to put on her costume 

 

 

Enjoying the booty!!

Abby Joy

 

Emily took this picture of Abby and I just had to share it with you. 



A Peek

 

Bob just recently took down three pine trees across our back yard to allow more sun into our garden for next year and this is what we saw...

 

...a peek at the ridge across the river.



One Month Old

 

 

Our little Drew is a month old today and here he is!

 

 

And his big milestone for his first month was taking a bath!  His cord finally fell off after 3 weeks and into the tub he went.

 

Drew's first bath

 





The Pumpkin Patch

This year we picked over 70 pumpkins from our garden!  The funny thing is, we didn't plant a single pumpkin seed!  We composted the seeds from last years jack-o-lanterns which Bob then spread on the garden and up came our pumpkin patch. 

 

Here is a picture of Samuel standing in the sea of pumpkins that ended up taking over most of the garden.

 

 

We had enough pumpkins to decorate the house and yard with (thanks to Bob and his mom while I was in the hospital with Drew) and to decorate and give away for our fall party.

 

 

It is just so neat how God preserved seeds, provided them with sun, soil, and water and made them grow even after we had pretty much discarded them a whole year before.
