Gma and the Pumpkin Patch


Gma came to visit while Papa was in meetings for work near the airport.  She took us to the Pumpkin Patch to pick out our favorite pumpkins for the holiday. There were big pumpkins, small pumpkins, bumpy ones, tall ones, and even fat ones!  We had so much fun looking and walking through the huge variety!

When the pumpkin patch is over and the leftover pumpkins are getting too ripe, the church will have a huge catapult where you can buy a rotten pumpkin and enter a Pumpkin Chunkin Contest to see who can chunk the rotten pumpkin the farthest.

I loved this sign the church had at the entrance to the pumpkin patch.  Thank you Jesus!!!

James' 3rd Birthday

James turned 3 on August 31, 2010.  I can't believe how these past 3 years have flown by.  I catch myself saying that quite often these days!  I just want to cherish every last moment.  I guess that's why I take an incredible amount of photographs.  I had to buy an external terabyte just to store them.

Back to James...his birthday was packed full of dinosaurs and fun!  We had dinosaur balloons, wet slide,  swimming pool, water balloons, pinata, and of course the "cold" tub :)
Thank you Moe and Roe for bringing your slide!!!

Thank you Gma and Papa Hoenerhoff!

I love Monster Trucks!

Garrett and James

James had a blast!  This was the first birthday that he really understood.  He played with his friends, ripped open his presents, and stuffed himself silly with cake!  What more can a 3 year old want?!
