Pumpkin farm

Another busy week behind us!

I have been projecting around the house this week. Purchased and painted/stained some old furniture , built a headboard for us, and of course got the fall decorations going around the house :)

The beagles continue to shock us! After letting them outside for 30ish minutes I realized I hadn't heard them. Turns out they dug their way under our fence to our neighbors backyard so Lola could play with her boyfriend patches. THEY are crazzzyyy! Good thing we are friends with our neighbors otherwise that would be awkward. Escaping beagles at it again...

This week was the week that we were waiting for news from the doctor on the genetic disorder test. They said that no news was good news so the absence of a call be Wednesday was very relieving :) looks like Kane is healthy as can be, but we will find out more at my appointment next week. Thank you all for your positive thoughts and prayers! The power of prayer is amazing .

Steve is about to finish up BWS next week which means we will find out when he begins apache school and hopefully come close to a graduation date woo hoo! Tuesday is his big checkride so keep him in your thoughts :)

Today was possibly the most beautiful day of the year so far here in Alabama ! I started my morning to a brisk 10 mile run in 37 degree weather ... Man was that cold! After relaxing all morning we spent the day at a local pumpkin farm. You never know what to expect around here when it comes to.. Well anything really ... But the aplin farm was really really neat! We went with a bunch of other families that we are friends with and all of the kids had a blast, adults too of course :) there were really clean petting zoo animals , fresh local produce from their farm, rides, and a fun hayride that takes you to the pumpkin patch to pick your own pumpkins . Not only are there tons of pumpkins but it is a MASsIVE sunflower field as well. We all spent quite some time just playing in the fields, taking some pictures of course , and picking flowers and pumpkins. The perfect weather made it just that much better too. Before leaving we purchased some of their local honey, tomatoes, and cucumbers ... Yum! It was really a fun day with some great friends :) followed by large amounts of food at five guys and frozen yogurt . The best part of the day was spending time with Steven and seeing him taking in all of the animals and fun new things at the farm. Seeing him develop into such a neat little human amazes us every day! Tonight he learned a new trick, if we say "touchdown!!!" he raises his arms up for the TD :) it's hilarious.

We have a lot of videos to upload to so hopefully tomorrow I can get around to it along with some great pics from today.

I hope all is well with everyone , we miss you all as always. Would love some visitors anytime this fall/ winter ;) pictures and videos to come tomorrow! Have a great rest of the weeked
