Pumpkins, T-ing it up, and croup

A few weeks ago my sister-in-law, Annie, her younger two kids, Drew and Cole, Dylan, and I went up to Burt's Farms up in Dawsonville to experience their impressive pumpkins. I was completely blown away! They had a HUGE selection and their prices weren't too bad either. They had hay ride that was so nice because it was in a covered wagon (which made it cool) and there were no bails of hay (which didn't make you feel like you were going to fall out).






There were so may pumpkins I'm amazed that I was able to narrow it down to the three I took home.




These are from the hayride, and yes, those are two huge talking pumpkins!


Here are the wiped out boys on the drive home. Dylan fell asleep only five minutes before we got back to my place. So typical!
And here are our pumpkins. A big Daddy, Mommy, and baby pumpkin!

On Tuesday I went to my nephew, Drew's last T-ball game of the season. It was so cute to watch the kids out there playing. My favorite story about Drew playing T-ball was at his first game. When he hit his ball off of the T he started running for 1st, but when he saw the other kids trying to catch his ball, he went for it too! So, he ended up making it to home base carrying his own ball! How funny!


Dylan, the spectator.


Drew ready to hit a home run.


After a couple of attempts, SUCCESS!


Run, run, run!

Dylan wants to join in on the fun!

And, after the kids clear out, he does!

Lastly, a bit of sad news for Dylan, he has croup! But, I took him to the doctor today, and she prescribed some steroid medication that is supposed to make the inflammation go down. He has already started to make some improvements. Thank goodness! I hate top see him sick!

Cute pictures! I also love the story about Drew. It makes me remember t-ball games with Ryan. Cute, but I'm glad I'm past that stage of life now.
