Pumpkin Picking 2008




We had our annual pumpkin carving contest so of course we needed to go pick out some pumpkin's. We are looking forward to taking Ellie to Cox Farms Fall Festival so we can really enjoy this time of year, but in the meantime we had some fun going to the pumpkin patch...




Ohio

Unfortunately we had to make a sad trip up to Ohio at the end of August, as Ellie's great grandma passed away. The day of the service was beautiful and it would have been exactly what Grandma would have wanted. Still, it was difficult to say good-bye. She will be missed terribly. We had a nice time visiting with our cousins and thier kids, as always.

Anniversary Trip to the beach

The past couple of years we have gone up to the beach to celebrate. This year was no exception, but this year we did things a little differently. Instead of going up to Rehoboth, we went to Ocean City. I haven't stayed in Ocean City since my Senior year in high school. We stayed with the Brophy family at a family friends house. We had a great time exploring Ocean City and taking Ellie to the rides on the boardwalk.
