Sunday Fun Day!!

My husband is the man of many projects....MANY projects. We had beautiful weather on Sunday so he decided to tackle a couple of his projects, and while he was cutting and nailing I was digging and planting. A few months ago Stu built a planter box for me and I decided to plant some mums...purple, yellow, orange, and red ones. Cohen played and squealed in his walker on the deck while I planted and Stu built chairs.

Fall Photos at Red Bluff Farm Folsom, LA

This was our second attempt at Fall family photos. The first attempt was a fail due to the 100 degree weather forecast for last Saturday. I had went shopping for outfits for our photos and naturally bought cool weather clothes assuming that mid October might be cooler than 100 degrees....i was proven wrong. As bad as I wanted to take photos last weekend risking all of us having heat stroke and sweaty family photos was not worth it.

I had no idea how difficult it would be to find a pumpkin patch...this took a lot of googling, but i finally managed to find a farm (Red Bluff Farm) about an hour north of our house that had pumpkins. The farm was nice, had a few pumpkins and a petting farm. Cohen seemed to really enjoy the baby cows and pigs. We also took photos at City Park...my favorite place in New Orleans. We had so much fun playing with Cohen and watching his curiosity. He wasn't sure about the feel of grass on his hands and knees, which triggered many laughs from Stu and I. He's such a fun little guy.
