Apple Country Festival

Last Sunday Avery and I went with some of our good friends (Amber and her sweet boys) to the Apple Festival in Idalou! We had such a great time, and Avery got to know her boyfriends a little better! Here are some fun pics. that I took while we were there...

Braydon, Bryson, and Avery off to Idalou!
Avery had never sat by a car window before...she kept sticking her head under the pull down shade to get a better view!



Who would've thought there were so many fun things to do in Idalou, Texas? :)

The kids got their faces painted-they were so good! They didn't even touch their art work after it was applied!





We got our picture taken by a pretty, but kind of stinky waterfall....



We saw sheep (tried to pet them, but the sheep didn't like us very much...we were too cheap to buy food for them!)



We met Johnny Appleseed!!



We went on a hayride (my personal favorite even though I got swiped in the head by an apple tree!) :) Oh, and by the way, these are my back-up sunglasses...my other upteen pairs of sunglasses have either been broken, hidden, or ran over by Avery! These are not my favorite...so embarrassing!



And...last but not least, we picked out baby pumpkins (which the stem on ours has been biten off by a teething toddler)a pumpkin is a type of vegetable right?!

Gigi and Mu

Last weekend Ben's mom and grandmother (A.K.A. Gigi and Mu)came for a visit! We had a great time chilling at our house, and managed to get a few pictures...Avery's getting very hard to keep still during picture time!

Avery and Gigi


Come with me, Gigi!


Look what I can do, Gigi!


Unfortunatly I didn't get any pictures of Mu-Mu :( Sorry Mu-I'll do better next time! What's important is that Avery had a great time bonding with her grandmother and great grandmother! We were sad to see them leave.
