So, I'll be the first to admit that I'll never get any award for the cutest blog ever or for being clever with wording but really this blog is just for family and friends to see what we've been doing and mostly how much Anne is growing!
Unfortunately, however, time is just going by too fast and things have been busy so we didn't get a lot of photos of some of the fun things we did this past month. We had a fun family reunion with the Tapp family and some random family outings but we did manage to get some fun photos of us taking Anne to Thanksgiving Point to the Farm Country.
Our day started with Emma coming over for just an hour that morning and Anne got to have her first little dress up party. She and Emma dressed up in my old dresses and wore crowns (well, Anne wore her's for 5 seconds) and then we watched Sleeping Beauty and they colored pictures of Auroa. Yes...I love having a girl! =)
Then we were off for the fun! We saw the baby chicks...
and the process of how milk goes from a cow to the grocery store inside and then we headed out.
This was the "puppy" that Anne just loved. I made the mistake of saying how it was little LIKE a puppy but the word that Anne recognized was puppy and so that is what she called it.
We're some pretty cute chicks ourselves, don't you think? I love doing girly things with Anne.
They had horses, chickens, turkeys, cows, pigs, lambs...all things you see on a farm! It was like I was back home again when Grandpa Winterton was still alive and when we had all of our birds and other farm animals.
They had this cute little area with this little dance hall and the jail was next door. Anne thought it was fun.
This is Millie and she came right over to us when we were making "Moo" sounds. Good cow!
We went on a wagon ride. We could have had Anne go on a pony ride but we figured we'd save that for another visit.
This cute grandpa was our "driver" and Anne was having fun saying "hello" and "goodbye" to him. He reminds me of what I picture my Dad being when he grows up...a jolly old man with his horses and in cowboy boots.
Do you love how there are cars behind us? They took us right through the parking lot...not really rustic but it was still fun!
This is Anne pretending to milk a cow. She did a pretty good job at just getting right in there. We weren't sure if she would play along with this photo or not. Some fun memories that I have from growing up are of me and my dad in Winterton's barn milking the jersery cow. Every kid should grow up on a farm...
And today Anne is 18 months old and officially able to be in nursery! However, she's been in there now for over a month. She's growing so fast so we're just enjoying every second we can.
We decided to make you a birthday card today and share it with you via internet!
