Halloween Horse

Dana's sister, Aunt Rene, sent Bailey the cutest horse costume. She bought it at Keenland Horse track in Lexington, Kentucky. (Keenland is the best track in the entire world if you ask Dana.)

It even has a tail!!!

The pictures don't do the costume justice. It is sooooo adorable!

!!!!Thanks Aunt Rene!!!!

Blizzard in October...

It started snowing Tuesday night and when we woke up Wednesday morning there was 16 inches of snow. Dana shoveled off the back deck as Bailey looked on. For Dana's birthday, he got a snow blower... It was the perfect gift and was finally put to the test. Dana loves "mowing the snow."

Bailey loves looking out the sliding glass door at all the snow!

It is now Thursday night and it is still snowing... we just took the yardstick out back and there is 26 inches. It is a great night to be curled up on the couch with my sweeties watching it snow!!!

A second trip to the Pumpkin Patch...

We had so much fun the first time, we had to take Dana. Dana, DJ, Jessica (DJ's girlfriend), Bailey and I spent 3.5 hours there. We got lost in the corn maze. It is 6+mile of cut corn in the shape of a T-Rex. We all had so much fun in the corn!!!!Family Photo
Jessica, DJ, Jill and Bailey

Daddy and his baby girl. He had to hold her feet because we lost one of her socks some where in the maze. She couldn't even reach her feet with her hands but somehow managed to kick her sock off... She HATES having her feet covered!!!

If you look close you can see the maze map and the maze picture behind them.

Picking more pumpkins to sacrifice...

The official sacrificing will be on Wednesday night.

Pumpkin Patch

Bailey's first trip the the Pumpkin Patch. She loved looking at all the sights...tractors, other kids and tons of bright orange pumpkins. It was like she was a little owl with her head spinning in all directions. Grandma, Grandpa, Grammy, Uncle Ty, Mommy and Bailey had a great time and brought home 5 pumpkins, 3 carmel apples and a pumpkin bread. Resting on the hay bales.

Grandpa and Bailey in the pumpkin patch. Such a beautiful view of the

mountains with fields of bright orange pumpkins.

Notice the dirt on her face, from where Grandpa let her fall in the dirt.

Uncle Ty the scarecrow and Bailey the little pumpkin

Mommy's little helper

She climbed up and into the dishwasher all by herself! And then stood there long enough for me to run and get the camera. Then she started pulling the glasses out and throwing them on the floor... luckily they were plastic. She is not the best helper yet... but she has potential!

My new knit hat...

I finally finished knitting all the roses and leaves for Bailey's hat... I think it looks adorable...

Dana said " It looks like it came from the circus. Why is it covered in barnacles?"

He has no fashion sense!!!Notice that Dana is holding her arms down. We had to so I could get a picture of her wearing it.

We timed her.. She can get it off in 4 seconds flat!!!
All my hard work and she doesn't appreciate it.

View from the Las Vegas Suite

Dana upgraded rooms and got us a suite. It was on the 18th floor and overlooked the dancing fountains. It was the GREATEST!!! We flipped the couch so that you could just sit and stare at the fountains and the strip. Since Bailey was cranky for the majority of the trip, she and I watched the ever changing scenery a lot! Grandpa and Uncle Ty on the couch.

The fountains... Dana purposed to me in front of the fountains 3 years ago.

Big explosion of water.

The Strip and fountains at night.

Sunrise over Las Vegas.

It was a completely different kind of Vegas trip then what Dana and I were used too. Bailey is not really quite ready for Vegas. She was trying to get teeth and grouchy. Dana and I got dressed up on Tuesday night and saw the KA cirque du soleil show. It was magnificent. Dana worked hard in the booth and taking customers out.

Grandpa and Uncle Ty did a great job of watching Bailey and playing with us...even if they called her Carlos (from the movie "The Hangover"). They took her all over. She saw the lions at MGM, the pirates at TI and the giant M&M store. She got carried all over Vegas!
Over all it was a great trip!!!
