Pumpkin Patch 2012

This year was just like the other years... Our annual trip to the pumpkin patch. Every year I think I get that much more excited. Layla is getting to the age where she is more aware of her surroundings. Although she is still hesitant about riding ponies, or feeding goats, she has that excitement in her eyes like its all new all over again. The innocence that Layla has in her is amazing. To think she she has no clue about the big world around her lights up my heart. You would think that after coming here year after year it would be the same old same. But its not. The pumpkin patch evolves. The first couple years Layla couldn't walk. She would ride the ponies, go on the quad rides. The all of a sudden she had this fear about the rides, goats, and ponies. Its always different and I never know what to expect. This year was all about the bird section and the corn maze... Even the pumpkins didn't strike curiosity. We made it through another year.

Egg Coloring

The last few weeks have been off and on for us. First I caught a cold, then just when I thought Layla wouldn't catch it... she did. It has been hard to plan activities for us because I want to be a good person and not get other peoples children sick. So we stay home. 

That is until I feel we are well enough to head to the store to get some eggs to get festive and do what traditions call for. Egg Coloring! 

Not only to mention so far we have been able to do a egg hunt, take Easter pictures and get the egg coloring done. We still have many things planned in the next couple days to come! Hopefully we both stay in good health to be able to embrace this Easters season! It also marks one year since Layla and myself have been baptized. So much to be thankful for! Happy Easter Weekend!
