Pumpkin Patch

Let me first start by saying that this will NOT be our only trip to the pumpkin patch this year.  It is tradition that we go with the Perry family and I refuse to break tradition :)  Why did they not come with us yesterday?  Well....let me state with ABSOLUTE JOY and OVERWHELMING LOVE...that the reason they were unable to join us yesterday is because they brought their beautiful baby boy Zachary home yesterday!!!!  Zachary's Mom, Amy, was admitted to Duke at 23 1/2 weeks pregnant due to her water breaking.  Through sheer strength and faith, she was able to carry Zachary to 28 weeks gestation.  Check out Zachary and his big brother Andrew's page on the right hand nav bar....be prepared for an endless amount of cuteness!!!  Andrew is 1 week younger than Hayden and Zachary is one week younger than Landon!  Coincidence???  Amy, I am sooooo incredibly proud of you and Robbie for the strength and faith that you have shown.  This is undoubtedly the reason that you have 2 healthy and beautiful boys that I love dearly.  Andrew and Hayden are the best of buddies and I can not wait to watch Landon and Zachary become the best of friends too!  You are a great mother and a wonderful friend...Can't wait to take all 4 boys to the pumpkin patch together!!!

So, yesterday we went with several children from Hayden's class to Hill Ridge Farms.  We had so much fun watching the kids play together.  Hayden and Vance are T-R-O-U-B-L-E together...hahah!  Vance has 2 older sisters who adore Hayden and carry him around like a baby.  Hayden actually calls them "sister."  

Below are some cute pics from our day!!!

My sweet little men with the perfect pumpkin...
Can't believe we are a family of 4 now
Here they all are on the hay ride to pick out their pumpkins
Here is one of Mommy's PERFECT PUMPKINS
This is the best that we could do getting all the kids together.  Even the teachers, Mrs LaVonda (with her 2 kids also in the pic) and Mrs. Debbie came out for the fun

You made me cry. You are a wonderful friend and I am blessed to have you and your precious family in my life as well as my family's life. We look forward to our annual trip to the pumpkin patch. Zachary can't wait to meet you all!
