Pumpkin Time

So, Eric has been having severe pain in his tooth. To make a very long story short, he ended up having an emergency root canal done on Sunday. Bless his heart, his face started swelling and has just been miserable. Yesterday, he just wasn't up to going to work. Problem is, if he stayed at home, he couldn't sit still. He would have gotten into some project and would have ended up in worse pain than he started. I have been wanting to take the girls to the apple orchards and the pumpkin farm in Ellijay, so he agreed to go with us. I drove so he could rest. Despite him being drugged, we really did have a great day! Here we are eating apples at Hillcrest. Maddie normally isn't an apple eater, but her front tooth is close to coming out and we told her that eating an apple would help. :) She's already asked for another apple this morning.
I thought these were some cute pictures of the girls in the pumpkin patch.

And my Mom got the special treat of meeting those darling girls too! Nobody mentioned Eric's teeth...only what a beautiful family and such "perfectly well behaved darling little girls!"

Gosh they're cute! Glad y'all had fun. Shoot, with Eric drugged he was probably more enjoyable! Haha only kidding. He was probably getting all weepy...

Cyndi, the shirt came from a yard sale and the skirt was Malley's. I just got lucky that they matched. :)

Don't you just love the pumpkin patch? Always one of my favs in the fall. The girls are darling. That dress brings back memories.
Hope Eric is better.

so cute! The girls outfits are adorable and orange is always a good color for redheads. Fall colors are our best friends :) This looks like a wonderful pumpkin patch. Which one did you guys go to?

For some reason, I thought I had commented on this already...you guys are way tooo cute. Eric probably had a great time since he was on drugs.
