Little Pumpkins






It's that time of year to give thanks and enjoy the oranges, reds, browns and golden yellows of the season - even though it doesn't feel chilly out at all. Lucy and I went to a pumpkin patch on our way home from the Ag EXPO in Moultrie on Wednesday. Her head looks like one of the pumpkins and I had such a fun time picking one out for Dandah's house.

Ag EXPO





Papa, Mama, Lucy and I went to the Ag AXPO this week. It was so much fun. There were tractors and trailers, horses and llamas and a mud puddle. I climbed on all of the big tractors, splashed in a mud puddle and helped Papa look at new harrows. I saw sheep and mama showed me the Llamas (I called them "sheep Mamas" until my mama corrected me and then I just called them Mamas). I ran and ran all day and at the end I was pooped - but as I told mama "oh, dear! This is my favorite!" Besides the Ag Expo here are a few other things I said that Mama thought were noteworthy this week -

We've been picking up pecans and in the fields near the house they are harvesting peanuts. In the front of the house under the oak tree I found some "p-corns". Mama said they were acorns but I must have heard her wrong because all nut like things must start with a "p".

Often heard "I do it all by myselfs" or "I do it my own way!!!!"

Farm, Food and Fun


I love Fall! Yesterday out under the pecan trees I flew over mama and enjoyed the beautiful day. We rolled around in the grass, watched a spider build her web, sang songs and picked up pecans. I




TRACTORS!!!!



Love that smile! Lucy is "sweet girl" - I like playing with her and giving her hugs and kisses. Mama says I have to be careful because I like to give her snacks too but mama says Lucy can't have goldfish yet.



Lucy's sitting up all by herself now. She's still a bit shaky at times but really likes it - and we like being outside. The pecans are starting to fall so we will be spending lots of time outside picking them up.



Lucy is starting to get the hang of eating from a spoon - though it's still a messy process.
