VERY long post with pics...




I caught Charlotte chillin on the couch the other day and wanted to capture the moment.



 
Cameron was a little shy while Charlotte watched tv.  Oops.  I'm a good mom.



 






We got free tickets to a dairy farm through the UW (love all the family-friendly things around here).  So we bundled up and went yesterday morning.  It wasn't too cold outside, but the wind made it a bit frigid.

 



Cameron freaked out about everything there... even this big tractor that didn't move or make noise??
 









 



 



 



 
 Feeding the goats



 
 This poor turkey  has no idea Thanksgiving is just around the corner.





This bunny was so soft.  I just kept thinking how nice it would be to have a makeup brush this soft...
 



 



 




Chad and I got to milk a cow.  Cameron was too afraid.  In his defense, Cameron is home from church today cause he had a fever last night.  Let's hope that's why he was being such a bungus yesterday.... that and he probably gets his fear of everything from me.  I'm a scaredy cat.

 



 




We got to go on a hayride and pick out a few pumpkins.  It was nice to sit down!
 

 

 When we showed up for the tour, we saw our neighbors, the Cowans, there!  Weird.  We hadn't planned anything with them.  They just got the same tickets we did and decided yesterday would be a good day to go.  It was fun to go with them.

 




Charlotte was hungry and cold.  So the last hour or so, she was very fussy.  But every now and then, she would just give up and fall over asleep.  It's like a switch was turned off.  Funny. 
 




I thought Haven (our neighbor) was so cute picking a pumpkin with her purple hoodie on.
 



 



 



We had a lot of fun.  I haven't been to a pumpkin patch since I was little.  That's why I wanted to go... to give Cameron the experience, although I'm sure he'll get more opportunities in the future.  But it was nice to spend the morning together as a family.

Looks like loads of fun!!! Maybe next year Cam won't be so freaked out. Bet he just didn't feel good yesterday. Char's so cute in her pink sack.

Those are some pretty sweet pictures. I especially like Char's modeling...

Hope Cam (& you) are feeling better.

Love you guys,

Fun pictures of the farm and of the kids. It's always fun to create memories, even if they are scared of doing anything. I hope Cameron feels better.
