Pumpkin Patch!!!

Yesterday we went to Johnson Farms for the Pumpkin Patch with Nama, Papa, Aunt Jenny, Uncle Rob, Anna and Ashley. It is one of our favorite things to do in Kansas City and it was SO fun! We got there after nap, so unfortunately did not get to play with all the cool stuff they have (cause they closed at 6), but we got to spend a lot of time in the pumpkin patch! We picked out fun pumpkins, rode in the wheel barrels and went on a hay ride!

After the pumpkin patch we went to Minsky's Pizza for dinner and it was SO yummy! They even had a magician who did such cool tricks (he turned 2 bunnies in my hand into 12...crazy)! He also made balloon stuff...I asked for a red sword and pretended like I was a pirate all night long!

It was SO fun!

Swim Lessons

Here are some pictures from before swimming lessons today! I really have so much fun in them! Coach Angie has taught me to hold my breath and go under, to hold my hands just right to swim, to do a stroke and even to try to swim by myself. It is cool! Next week is my last class though...boohoo! Next I am taking gymnastics!!

Mommy's favorite picture of me!!

Mommy loves this picture that Aunt jenny took of me when I was at her house last week. It shows my new wild side!! I love to dance and pretend. Here I am with my hand on my hip (that is popped out). Mommy wants to know where I learned this??

Apple Picking!!

Aunt Jenny called yesterday with an amazing idea...she had reservations for us to go apple picking in a small orchard in Gardner, KS. It was so awesome! Aunt Jenny, Uncle Rob, Anna, Ashley, Mr. Aaron, Miss Laura and Henry all met us there.

We got to pick apples (I even used the BIG picker to get the apples from high in the trees), feed fish (I fed them half of my apple), feed horses (Henry got bit), feed goats (I fed one lots of peaches) and eat apples all along the way!

It was so much fun...I just loved it and spending time with everyone! We got 2 bags full of apples....now we are in the fall baking mood! Mom made an apple pie and we are having an apple crisp for dessert tonight....YUMMY! We will have to post pictures of the pie....it is SO pretty!

We LOVE the fall!

October 18th!!!

My cousin Tom gets to get his casts off October 18th...his femur will be healed!! YIPPEE! I think there is going to be a party (at least there should be) and I wish I could be there! I miss my cousin!
Love,

He will be up and running around like this in NO time! Yay Tom!!

Circus!!!

A few weeks ago mommy, daddy and I all went to the Circus at the Sprint Center. It was my first time to the Circus and the Sprint Center (unless you count when I was in mommy's belly...I heard Garth Brooke's twice)!

The Circus was SO cool. Lots of crazy clowns, animals and people dressed in silly outfits doing crazy things! My favorite was the elephants and the trampoline!

I had so much fun that when we were driving home (at 10pm) I asked mom and dad if we could go to the plaza and hang out! I am a party girl!

Pictures from Mommy's trip

When mommy was in Chicago she did not take too many pictures, but I thought I would share them. Mommy had so much fun playing with all her friends! The first day Amberlyn, Nick and mommy met a sorority sister who was visiting Chicago too (Brooke and her husband Heath). They ate really yummy pizza and caught up!

Amberlyn and mommy did lots of shopping, talking, walking and eating. They had so much fun!

Mommy even got to have brunch with her cousin Colleen and got to meet Colleen's boyfriend Joe. They had lots of fun!

I sure wish I could have gone to Chicago too. Mommy said that next time she goes she will take me. I promised to be a good shopper!

Love,
Kate
