<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It's a beautiful day in mid-October for us Ohioans, and what better place to spend it than at the Pumpkin Patch. Grandma Tonya (Colton's Mom) was in town visiting this weekend and we thought we'd take her out for a little family fun! We definitely enjoyed our short time together, but we made sure to make many memories! </span></div>

<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What a gift you have given us. Charlotte lights up our life. She is sweet, and funny, and absolutely adorable. Our lives are forever changed because of your decision to choose us! Maximus has enjoyed every minute of being a big brother and has continued to surprise us with his tender spirit and protective nature towards his baby sister. And Sam and I are <u>completely</u> smitten with having a daughter. It is more than we could have ever imagined or wished for. Charlotte is a dream come true. </span></i><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What a beautiful reunion we just had with Aaron, Chris (Charlotte's birthfather), Grandpa Chip and Grandma Sheila (Aaron's parents) in St. Augustine, Florida. We dined, and shopped and our sweet little Charlotte melted all their hearts. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Charley, you are one blessed little girl! You have SO MANY people that truly love and adore you. Family that will go to the moon and back for you. What a treasure you are to all of us! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Cheers to time well spent with our new and extended family. Already looking forward to next time. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We were in shear joy when we found out that Miss Katie was going to be Max's teacher for his second year of pre-school. In case you don't recall, Miss Katie taught Max's first year of pre-school. What a great feeling to know Max already knew and was familiar with her. And on top of that Maximus learned so much last year; I can't wait to see how much fun he has in her class this year!</span><br />

In fact he kept telling us "You know I'm not going to watch the game on the TV today!" This was a big day for Max and I am so glad Sam got to take him.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What is that saying? While the cat is away, the mouse will play! Well, Sam's brother took his wife on a Mexico vacation so we had the privilege of watching their girls. Claire (3) and June (13 mo). It was definitely hard work to have 4 kiddos 4 and under, but the week was absolutely a success and all had fun! Here are the little babes at the pool! <span style="font-size: x-small;">(I did not venture to the pool alone, fyi, Sam and Brit accompanied me so lots of manpower watching these guys play!)</span></span></div>

He thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it and has spent hours "practicing" out in the front yard showing all the neighbors how far he can 'crush' the ball. Too flippin' cute I tell you. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">That's right, it's that time of year again - time to get our planting on. Every year, we plant a large amount of crops and diligently watch them grow into some incredible, healthy and organic vegetables at my sibling'</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">s farm.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It is hard work, but so rewarding! To know that you planted something, watered it, waited for it, and then voila: beautiful vegetables to feed your family. It doesn't get much better than that (or at least in my book it doesn't). </span></div>
