Did You Miss Us?

Once again I've fallen so far behind on blogging, did you miss us?!  We've been so busy, that I've barely had any down time, which has been bittersweet.  It's made the time without Nate go much faster, but it means I've barely taken pictures and I've not been motivated (nor had the time) to blog.  But I promise, I'm going to try to be better.  I figured I should empty the memory card and get caught up on blogging before the Halloween festivities start.  You should be super excited to see pictures of the kiddos in their costumes, I know I'm excited. :)  But, let's rewind back to the rest of our Kentucky trip.  One day while we were shopping, we went to the mall and Grandpa just had to let Gunner do the jump thing.  He had a blast!!  

Then the following day was "Ham Fest" in good ol' Cadiz, Kentucky.  We went on the train ride and had a great time.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE that Gunner and Grandpa wore matching shirts.  Is that not the cutest thing you've ever seen?! 

And of course, you MUST go on the bounce house. :)

And just for daddy, we had to play the shooting game and win sissy a tiara.  :)

Grace couldn't do much (poor girl) but she found ways to have fun anyways, like leaves and cuddles with Grandpa. 

Gunner was even able to go on rides while we were there.  On Sunday we went back again and someone gave us a bracelet for unlimited rides, so he was able to come back and ride all the rides again, which he loved!

Grace couldn't do much at the festival, but she had fun playing with a squash while we waited for Grandpa to get a lemonade. :)

I love this picture of her in the carseat, and I love it even more because we have a similar one of Gunner (around the same age, not the best quality but you see the similarities)...

Of course, part of hanging with Grandpa is getting ice cream. :)  So that was a must.

The following day we had a little birthday party for Miss Grace.

Such a doll baby...

And Auntie Emily brought LOTS of goodies for the kids.  Not only presents, but Halloween goodies.

Including vampire teeth.  haha.

Because it was her birthday, Grandma even made Grandpa dig out the swing.  As you can see, she barely enjoyed it at all. :)

I was able to catch a cute little picture of Gunner playing trucks with his Great Grandpa, yes you read that right, his GREAT Grandpa.  I love catching tender moments like this, even if it's not the best quality. 

As if you couldn't tell, we had such a great trip to Kentucky.  We made it back safe and have been so busy the past ten days, but unfortunately I didn't get many photos.  We had 'another' little party for Grace at our house with some of our friends, which was SO much fun.  But I do have pictures of Grace's first birthday photo shoot we had this past weekend.  So I will leave you with these and look forward to seeing our Halloween pictures....
