Pumpkin Patch Pictures

Last weekend we took Taylor to another pumpkin patch to take some pictures. I've been trying to play with the camera we bought from Clay and Julie. Hopefully over Christmas Julie can teach me some more stuff. :-) Here are some of the picture I took. I made her outfit. The shirt didn't come out as well as I had hoped but you can't tell in the pictures. Also her hair has gotten so long that its hard for me to fix it. She likes to mess with it so much. Half the time I fix it and then in the car she pulls everything out.

 Sorry there are so many pictures but I took like 100 pictures so I had way too many to choose from.

 

Fall Pictures

Taylor is growing up so fast. She keeps me so busy but its definitely worth being able to spend everyday with her. Here are a couple of things I want to remember: Her favorite song since her birthday is the Happy Birthday song which she sings all the time. She sings it to her babies, in the car, at the store, everywhere. Its really cute. She likes to get me to clap and then sing it to her too. She still loves her babies and dollies. She will feed them, cuddle with them and talk to them all the time. She also loves to dance. :-) She is talking a lot. She can say so many words. My favorite right now is "poop face" which is toothpaste. I correct her everyday but I always giggle so she thinks its funny and keeps saying it the wrong way.

We have been keeping busy with fun crafts at home, counting, learning her colors which she knows pink and purple. She surprised me the other day with knowing brown but she's sneaky. Right now she is only wanting to do things when she wants to. I can definitely say she going through her terrible two's. She is spending a lot of time in time out. She loves to say "No", "Mine". We are working on it.

Anyways, here are some pictures. She has a scratch above her right eye. I think she did that while she was sleeping.

 

 

 

 

Taylor just loves Trinity and Emma.

 

Aggieland Pictures

This past Thursday Clint had to be at a Career Fair at A&M so Taylor and I went to keep him company on the drive. While Clint was at the Career Fair Taylor and I went on a tour of Aggieland, took some pictures,  and went to a children's museum. We did some shopping too. :-) Here are some pictures from the trip.

 

 

 

 

She is at an age where it's so hard to take pictures of her. She wants to do what she wants. It was hard to get good ones but at least I was able to capture these.

Napa Valley Trip

At the beginning of September Clint and I were invited on a trip to Napa and Sonoma Valley. It was amazing. We did lots of wine tasting and tours starting Friday morning all the way through Monday afternoon. We flew into San Francisco and spent four days in beautiful wine country. Here are some pictures of the trip.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                    

 

 

This was the wine tasting we had at Simi before dinner the first night.

 

 

 

 

Anthony and Courtney, the couple who invited us. She was celebrating her 30th birthday. He works for Republic so everything was very fancy. Most of the places we went to were owned by the company he works for.  :-)

 

 

This is the house we stayed in the first night at Chalk Hill Winery.

We then met some of Anthony's friends that live in Santa Monica. They were able to hang out with us Saturday and Sunday afternoon.

We took a tour of Ravenswood.

 

Had a wine tasting.

 

 

This is the house we stayed at Saturday night which was in downtown Sonoma and a house of Ravenswood Winery.

Sunday we went to a couple other wineries for tasting and tours and then headed to the last house  which was owned by the Franciscan Winery. It was a beautiful plantation home.

 

 

 This is a picture from the porch.

Here are just a couple other pictures.

It was an amazing trip, I definitely want to go back again.
