Furman Homecoming






Well, here it is--4:39 a.m. and I am about to head to class at LMU in Tennessee....so I thought I'd update the blog first :-)

Last weekend we went to Greenville for our Furman 5 year reunion! I can't believe it's already been 5 years since Jeremy and I graduated! Whoa! Friday night we kept Sarah out late and she was fabulous! Saturday morning we drug her around with us visiting professors, etc., and she was horrendous! I can't blame her though. She was much better by Saturday afternoon and had a nice visit with my friend Maggie, her sister and nephews at the Furman lake. It was a great weekend, and I have a new plan for next year--skip the Saturday morning faculty visits and go to the afternoon football game instead! :-)

Pumpkin Time!


Mommy and her little scarecrow

The hayride

Daddy and Sarah on the hayride

Sarah is a big girl now!

She even knows how to help carry in the groceries!

My mom found this really cute scarecrow costume at the consignment store. Sarah is not thrilled about the hat, but she tolerated it pretty well today :-)

Having fun at Washington Farms

Standing in the pumpkin patch

Petting the goat and trying to feed him some grass

The cornbox--what fun! I wish we had one of these at home...

We had a family outing this morning to Washington Farms near Athens--there was so much to do, and we all had a great time! Sarah's favorite activity was the corn box, I believe. Or maybe lunch... :-) I have been trying to teach Sarah to say pumpkin this week, without much luck until today. I told her, "say pumpkin," and she made some sort of sound and then pointed to the pumpkin on my shirt!!! At least she knows what a pumpkin is now.

We are on day 3 of no paci except for nap time, and it is going SUPER! Thanks to Sarah's day care we may finally start to say bye-bye to paci :-)
