It's The Great Pumpkin....

William went to Wooden Farm this weekend to pick out his first pumpkin! He was a man on a mission for the biggest pumpkin there...

This is the first one he chose!

The second one he thought was a little more manageable and he attempted to pick that one up.

As you can see, he settled one more his size.  

He LOVED riding in the wagon through the pumpkin patch!

The owner thought William was so cute she gave him a mini pumpkin, which he thought he could eat! He was still telling his Dad about the mini pumpkin the next day and insisted on taking it to church!!! 

Fun Times with Visitors!!!

William had visitors this Labor Day Weekend and he had a blast! We hope they did also! Uncle Chris, Aunt Jodie, Kaleb and Brenna came down to Kentucky for some military and animal fun!

William and Daddy at the Patton Museum on Fort Knox....where we were told by the visitors' center "You can't just drive on post, sir" Ummm, why is a one day visitor pass one of your pass options?????

Willie enjoying a little fishing in the back yard with his new Lightening McQueen Fishing pole!! He didn't have a hook, but Kaleb did and he caught The Big One!

We also went to the Louisville Zoo and it was FABULOUS!!! A little rain and cool weather and ALL the animals were out and about!

All the kids checking out the Elephants!

Willie and his new best friend, a baby gorilla!!! He was just sitting there staring at all the little kids!

William and his usual favorite, the Fish!!!

Next trip, Bourbon and Bats!!!

Stickermania!!

  William's sticker habit is getting out of control! This is what he did while I was making lunch today! At least not so many go on his face these days.  I think he got tired of the pain he felt pulling them off his face! Now he just covers everything that isn't moving and on occasion, the General.

An Evening at the Ballards...

William and I enjoyed a little pool time while poor Daddy had to mow the yard from being gone all weekend.

William's graceful pool entrance...

Up close and Personal!!

Trying to dump a bucket of water on Mommy.

Lastly, William's pool exit!

Last but certainly not least, poor Daddy cutting the grass...

Mr. Independent

He has his Daddy's sense of style!

William picked out his own outfit! Thank goodness we didn't have anywhere to be!

William vs. Toy Garage

Garage won...

Busy Week in West Virginia...

William and I went home to West Virginia for a week to visit and go to his cousins Kaleb and Merryn's Birthdays. He had an exhausting but fun time as you can see...

He played a little Cornhole at his Uncle Chris' and Aunt Jodie's.  William loves anything that requires throwing!

 

He played in his cousins Kaleb and Brenna's playhouse.

He enjoyed alot of cupcakes and ice cream!

He did a little relaxing at Nonna and Grumpy's pool...

He even taught Aunt Becca what a Beaver does...

Lastly he learned to climb the "mountain" in Nonna and Grumpy's backyard! The descent still needs some work, though...
