and on sunday

we headed to avila barn to take a hay ride and pick out a pumpkin. the weather was beautiful, we got there earlier enough so it wasn't too hot or too crowded. then when we got home, we decorated the outside of the house for fall/halloween, i'll post those pics later. we ended the day with a delicious dinner at papa and sam sam's house. what a wonderful weekend.

love this pic, but i wish she was looking at me

i could never get maisy to look at the camera. she would smile a great smile, but she would look off in another direction.

maisy loved riding on the hay ride to the pumpkin patch

she was busy looking for the "perfect" pumpkin

my friend joanna and her family were at the barn at the same time we were, so we hung out together. miles and alley got to hang out on saturday at aubrey's birthday, so they hung out again on sunday. i think if they hung out more, there might be a little budding "romance". they are so cute together.

 ok, let me explain this amazing picture of my crazy daughter. she LOVES to jump on things. at home, she'll climb on a chair near the couch so she can jump onto the couch. at avila barn there is this neat little hay play area. maisy climbed up on the edge and next thing i knew she was jumping. i snapped the picture thinking she was going to jump and land on her feet. oh no, she jumped and landed on her stomach. OUCH!!!! she didn't cry, but she came to me... "mommy, hurt tummy" ya think?!
