Grammy Ellen & Pumpkin Picking

Sorry it's been a little while since the last post. We've been pretty busy lately with the passing of Grammy Ellen. Between the services and the company in town for them we have had a lot going on. It was good to see everyone again, even under the circumstances, and while Grammy is probably in a better place now we're going to miss her. This is one of the few pictures I have of her and Brooke from about a year and a half ago because she hadn't been well enough to attend family gatherings for a while but it's a good one of her smiling so I thought I'd put it up. If you'd like to read the obituary or sign the online guest book you can do that here.

Saturday afternoon after spending the morning in the ER with Brooke's first big boo-boo, from diving off the couch head first into the coffee table while trying to feed the cat, we went pumpkin picking to take her mind off of it. Well, more like picking out, but we got pumpkins all the same. We liked Cider Hill so much we went back this time to get pumpkins and of course some cider and hot cider donuts while we were there. Brooke got to visit with the animals again as well as go through the hay and grass maze they have there and ride around in a wagon. The maze was a dollar a person, even for Brooke, but it was fun and worth the three bucks. The donuts were even better than last time and the cider was still great. Anyhow to see the pictures from the trip and a few other recent ones click here or on the picture above. Enjoy!
