Thanksgiving

What a perfect holiday we had. 2 of my older sister sand their families were able to come and it was my first time meeting Madeline- my sister's first baby. Ava was obsessed with the baby. When is good news when we finally get baby number 2at least I know she will love it. After a fantastic dinner all stuffed miss Ava took a nap and Russ and I were able to sneak away for a date to see Breaking Dawn. Russ and I had SO much fun. He is so amazing to me. As we walked in the dark theater he put his arms around my waist and pulled me in for the most romantic kiss ever! Seriously he is so hott! The whole night we were acting like a couple of teenagers and I loved every second. I fall more and more in love with this man every day. He knows just how to make me smile and make me feel beautiful and loved. We have always had such a special relationship. I a,nso glad I met him so young and that'll the memories we have together and now our own little family. Being with Russell was my teenage dream that came true and I couldn't be happier with my life with him.

Day at the Farm

A few weeks ago we decided it was a perfect fall afternoon to take Ava to Thanksgiving point Farm to see the animals. The Barnyard was decorated for Halloween with witches all over the place.
Ava was in heaven petting the goats, lambs, horses and ponies.
They even had rabbits. We got some dried corn and Miss A would hold out her hand flat with some on top and the goats would eat right off it. She loved it and would giggle saying it was tickling.

She got to go on a pony ride.. but the one she picked was huge and not a pony at all. I was nervous the whole time since she would slide back and forth on the saddle as the horse walked.



We went on a wagon ride. Love the pic below of her and Russ :)

Happy as can be!

The sun was setting and a gorgeous Fall afternoon together!
