Pumpkin pickin’

This year we decided to try out Hillridge Farms, Youngsville, NC. Apparently, EVERYONE else did too. We’ve since heard that its like this for the entire month of October so apparently it wasn’t just the fact that we picked the same weekend as everyone else – apparently – we picked the same pumpkin patch as…

Goin’ green

Because of the circumstances surrounding this project its been difficult to actually write about it – but planting grass and getting rid of the weeds, rocks and pine needles has been something we have long wanted to do in our backyard. We had gotten advice on any number of ways to do it – all…

Jumpin’ 2 year old monkey

With all the fun of the birthday behind us, we almost didn’t know what to do with ourselves on Cailee’s actual birthday. So we packed up the gang, Aunt Beth included, and headed to Monkey Joes. As usual, Cailee wore us adults out, far out jumping, and sliding us. She loves that place! But if…

Happy 2nd Birthday Cailee!

I haven’t posted in a while, and with good reason. I have been busy planning Cailee’s pink and black polka dot princess party (yea, I couldn’t decide on one theme, so of course she got it all). Today was the party and we had a blast – but I think I am more tired then…
