Happy Birthday Daddy!!

On October 7th Scott turned 33!! We celebrated the Sunday before by having Scott's family over for dinner. His brother, Jason even surprised him by coming home from Savannah to spend the night and celebrate with us!
Here's Anna with her Uncle Scotty!
Wonder what these two are scheming up....

Scott and his peeps......
Make a wish......
Jill loved Uncle Scotty's birthday dessert!
On Scott's actual birthday it was just the 4 of us for burgers (Scott's choice) and homemade chocolate cake!
Bonnie Kay and Molly Margaret were very excited to give their Daddy his card.....

and of course his gifts.....out of all of his gifts this was every ones favorite, Candy Corn Hershey Kisses! I think throughout the month of October we bought every bag within a 30 mile radius. Scott isn't a huge fan of sweets, but he loved these and shared them with Bonnie Kay and Molly Margaret every night after dinner!
The Girls were very proud of the cake they helped Mommy bake.
Actually they were better at cleaning up the bowls and beaters than they were at the actual baking part! Anyway, here's our finished product!
Happy Birthday Daddy, we love you!!

The Great Pumpkin

Fall is one of my favorite times of the year and picking out the perfect pumpkin has always been a must for me!
Last year Bonnie Kay and Molly Margaret had their first experience at selecting the perfect pumpkin. They were pretty easy going and went along with whatever Mommy and Daddy decided on, however this year they were definitely more hands on and had a say in The Great Pumpkin that we selected to come home with us.
When we arrived Bonnie Kay and Molly Margaret were a little overwhelmed at the sight of all of the pumpkins. Once they took it all in and got a little more comfortable with their surroundings they began checking out each and every pumpkin to find the perfect one!
Molly Margaret is on a mission!
Bonnie Kay liked this giant pumpkin.....
and Molly Margaret agreed that it was just right!!!
The Girls also picked out a pumpkin that was a little more their size!

I tried to get a photo of Bonnie Kay and Molly Margaret in front of this Fall display, but they are all over the place now! Needless to say it didn't go as planned!
I was able to snap this of Bonnie Kay just before she bolted!
Mommy had to get a picture with her little pumpkins.....so, I managed to wrangle them for a brief moment!
Can't you can tell they are really into it!!??!!
Here's our Great Pumpkin, along with the little pumpkins that the Girls decorated with Aunt B.
I think Bonnie Kay and Molly Margaret did a great job selecting a pumpkin that was just right for us! They aren't too bad a decorating them either!
We haven't had the official pumpkin carving yet, so more photos to come!!

Little Red Corvette

Addie decided to get out her Little Red Corvette and take Bonnie Kay and Molly Margaret for a little spin!
Off they go........
Could this be any indication of Spring Breaks to come!
Thankfully for now they are just happy cruising around the driveway. I'm not ready for my babies to be hanging out of convertibles on the Panama Strip!
Addie even let the Girls drive! Not really, they couldn't quite reach the gas, but they loved pressing all of the buttons and honking the horn! What Babes!
Addie received this Corvette on her 3rd Birthday, so needless to say she has enjoyed it and put many miles on it.
When I was little I had a battery operated Jeep that I loved! I used to pretend I was Daisy from the Dukes of Hazard.....shorts (maybe not as short as the real Daisy Dukes), high heels, the whole bit!
There were lots of escapades in my Jeep. One time, my cousin Amber and I nearly gave my grandmother a heart attack. She was supposed to be watching us and Amber and I decided to take my Jeep to the end of our very very long driveway to sell bubbles.....10 cents a blow!! We only had one customer, I think it was the mailman, before my grandmother realized where we were and came to rescue us in her big red Impala!
