Fall Fun 2011

Saturday, Oct 8th Lucky Ladd's pumpkin fall festival

Eagleville, TN

Annalane's baby pumpkin


It was a fun day as we started with our dance class and then traveled to the festival with petting
zoo/ animals, hayrides, corn maze, activities for kids, swings, and pumpkins

on the move with the animals...

mini trip to Chattanooga, TN- labor day wknd

We decided we would head to Chattanooga for a 1 night stay for the choo-choo and TN aquarium on Sunday. We left after annalane's dance class on Saturday, sept 3 and did a little sight seeing on our way.

happy smiles to see and ride a train on Saturday

gotta ride the carousel , rode every color horse you see...

an after dinner treat, ICE CREAM CONE, mainly the cone part...

Then about 2 am our little one got a high fever and ended up in the ER that morning with an ear infection/croup. We ended up not going to the aquarium and will have to go again. Just glad she is better!

Overall it was a good mini get away with the family before we add to it in December.

1st day of school -Sept 1st

as you can see annalane has on butterfly wings, each day it's something new she finds in her room and wants to wear. at least i talked her into leaving them in the car with me while she went to school. she had a fun day and i think she's excited to be back (mommy is glad school is back in session on tues./thurs.)

All smiles for my teacher's: miss wendy and miss judy

the catches of the day

loving the waterfall

swimming fun

had to get a "pink" glove like cousin parker

Annalane had a fun time at the family beach gathering. She really loves the ocean and was not afraid of the water. Can't wait to see how she does next year. It was a fun time with great weather!

our summer fun continues...

So annalane finished her ballet class last week and parents got to view inside the classroom as we've been watching it on a TV screen. It sure was a eye opening (of how big she is getting) event and neat experience to watch for sure. Unfortunately, we were not there the week before for me to get the memo and I did not come prepared with the flip video.

Stretching time... and she now loves to do forward rolls. i'll have to get one on video for you all to view her tucking her chin to her chest and the perfect placement of your hands on the floor.

on her toes...

minnie and me (she calls her mickey becasuse she 's not in the normal pink and black attire)

This huge doll came from a ymca worker who knows amb loves minnie and mickey

Finally, last Sunday night, annalane got her big girl twin bed put up and seems to really like it and continue to sleeps well: naps and nights. Cross our fingers that it continues to happen! She is also counting into the twenties and counting in spanish (thanks to dora).

Hope you are all doing well too and have a happy and fulfilled summer to come, fall is coming!

Our girl is growing up!

One Sunday after church

Our princess day- all day long
