The PUMP-KIN PATCH!!!

Fall is my favorite time of the year! All the vibrant colors of orange, the warm(not hot and not cold) weather and crock pot Sundays :) Today we went to the Corona Pumpkin Patch off El Sobrante between Sixth St and Magnolia. There were so many rides there for the older kids but Addie baddie enjoyed walking through all the pumpkins :). Being the little princess she is, she didn't like all the hay on the ground, so picky!

Getting a great shot was challenging at first, then Daddy gave her a mini pumpkin and I couldn't stop taking pictures!!!

It was about 5pm when we went and the weather was perfect and the sun added a nice glow to Addie :)

The River!

After 'many' planned trips... we finally made it out to the river Labor Day weekend. We arrived Wednesday night and enjoyed the river to ourselves Thursday and Friday :)

First day on the river :0) It was HOT but we tried to stay cool...Addie wasn't sure about the rocks and didn't want to walk around at first, let alone get in the water...

First night before dinner.

Second day on the river... we were the early birds!!! We were there for a few hours before anyone else came down to the dock, YIPPEE!

Addie baddie kept a close eye on her Daddy out on the river

The stud muffin !

Look at me gooooooooo! (Probably 5 mi/hr, but at least I was moving!)

Here we go! The second day Addie was brave and wanted to go into the water!!! Here she is a few steps in...

Ah Daddy, the water tripped me!!

Oh man! MY hair is wet!

I'm A-OKAY! Here we are playing slap the belly :)

It wouldn't be a complete trip without Dora! Not just on her pajamas but also on DVD... and just like home, there is Eddie right next to her.

Mmmm Ice Cream!

We ALL love the ice cream cones at Chick-fil-A. They are sweet and creamy and delicious :)

uh oh... did Eddie get a lick??? hehe looks like it!

Addie's "Neat & Tidy Cottage" :)

Addison saw this cottage at the store and absolutely loved it!!!

Addie is always on the phone... such a young age!

Hi Sugar!!!

Always trying on shoes!

Watch out Daddy's wallet :) Addie baddie loves shoes!

FATHERS DAY!!!

This Fathers Day we went to the Angels/Dodgers game. It was the third game of the series and unfortunately the Angels lost. What an experience! A rather large man ran into the outfield... and KOBE BRYANT was sitting in the section below us! We were in section 225 right behind 1st base. We loved our seats!

There is KOBE! HEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYY!
