Pumpkin Patch



 Of course we had to do it...the proverbial pumpkin patch with the kiddies/petting zoo for fall. It was definitely a hit with the little guy! Top things we liked about our outing:

1. Nash loved the hayride. Loved.
2. Fried apple pie, apple cider and our first boiled peanuts (apparently a southern thing everyone says you have to try, it tasted like salty potatoes...still deciding on that one).
3. We picked out three big ole pumpkins for carving.
4. The baby animals Nash was enamored with.
5. And lastly, the people watching. Nash decided to throw a baby pumpkin at a toothless southern gentleman. After I told him I was sorry he said something I couldn't understand. Sometimes "southern" is it's own language. Also there was a family there taking pictures all dressed in the same variation of an orange getup the mom had made ...mostly I wish I had gotten a picture of that.


 




My little sister Carleigh came with us too! Her an Nash are besties.

Summer happenings




We had a great summer with lots of time together, which was nice because Andrew's schedule is crazy these days. Most days he is at school from 6am to 11pm...gross. But his hard work has been paying off and he has been doing really well. I am so proud of him! It has been so nice to be able to live in my parents basement apartment because Nash and I get to hang out with my parents and little sister at night. Nash is totally obsessed with his Papa. Other current obsessions include watermelon, green drink, vaccums, lawn mowers, really anything that makes loud noises this kid is in heaven.

I have been doing hair a lot at night when I can find someone to watch Nash which has been awesome. I'm finishing up my degree online with BYU-I so that has been keeping me busy as well as doing side jobs for my mom's gourmet cookie company, Heidi's Heavenly Cookies.

Here are some pics from our trip to FL to visit Katie, Steen, and the Kids for Katie's bday. We had the absolute BEST time. They are the best hosts ever and can't wait to see them again. Thanks again!
