Pumpkin Patch and Grandma

Grandma came last weekend and took Twyla and Cooper to the Pumpkin Patch. Of course, Cooper had to walk the entire length of the patch before deciding on a pumpkin! It was a lot of fun, but very muddy :)

Pumpkins, Pumpkins and more Pumpkins

This weekend, we took Cooper to Pumpkin Fest at Earl May. They had lots of kids activities and a petting zoo.

Cooper really liked the animals, but he was too afraid to touch them. He loved the "pumpkin bowling" and was afraid of the clowns :)

Have a good trip Papa :)

Here are a few pictures of before Mike left.
Cooper already is talking about wanting to see his papa.
We all had a really great time on his last visit.

Camping Trip

Last week we took off to spend time with Matt's dad before he goes overseas. The first few days, they rented a "cabin" at Mahoney park. The cabin was really like a huge house. It was great to relax. We went horseback riding, fishing, drove thru the wildlife safari and climbed the observation tower, and the guys golfed.





The next few days, we pulled the campers to Branched Oak. We had quite a crew that came for Matt's cooking :) It was a really fun time.




Cooper is really starting to want to be more like dad. He was really into helping him fish.




The guys went golfing another day, so Deb and I took Cooper to the beach at the lake and had a picnic. We were the only people there and he liked playing in the sand more than he liked being in the water :)

We all had a great week, and are sad that Mike is leaving. We made some great memories, and I think that Cooper got a lot closer to Grandpa.

Some new Pics

Here some pictures from when Mom and Dad came to stay with us. And, Yes, that really is dad on a ladder with a nail gun :)
