This is a picture of my daddy with his new car.



It's so new there is still plastic on his seat.

He lets me drive it whenever I want.



Come to think of it...he let's me do whatever I want most of the time!!






Daddy really loves his new car!


Abby had been asking to make "pup cakes" for about a week, so we finally did. She did really good. She concentrates hard on activities and held on tight to the mixer.



What a fake smile!!


She even iced her cup cakes (until they were smashed to bits) and put pink sprinkles on them.
I love to watch her learn new things and figure things out on her own. She is a really smart little girl!


We had to go back to Stuckmeyer's with Abby's daddy because she promised him she would ride on a pony. She has had several chances to do this before and was always too afraid. There is a lot to do there and we usually go more than once a year.
I didn't think she would do the barrel ride either but she did.

Here is our brave girl having her first pony ride. Jon said she held on tight and wouldn't talk, but he thinks she liked it...no crying!


Face painting of course. She kept saying how pretty she was.

Every October we all go to Aunt Sue's in Jeff. City for Apple Butter Weekend. It's been a tradition for many years. It's a 2 day process and everyone has to take turns continuously stirring the kettle. This is Abby PaPa taking a turn.

Abby and her cousin Will played well together digging in the sand.


Abby and her cousin Lane.

She loved the tree house. It was way too high for her and her daddy would have had a fit if he saw how we got her up there. Maybe next year!



Abby and Will admiring the worm they dug up.







Aunt Sue's turn to stir.

Here are a few pictures of Abby and her friend Mollie Koetting at Stuckmeyer's Farm. We were the only one's on the hayride. A friend at work made matching hats for the girls. They had a great time playing as always.











Abby went apple pickin' at Eckert's for the first time with her grandma and aunts Jaime, Rosie and Becky. She brought a few home for us but ate them herself. Who knew she liked apples sooo much?
