A day at the pumkin patch...

We all got to go visit Grandma and Great-Grandma in Topeka. They took us to a pumkin patch where I got to walk around and play in the hay and eat an apple slushie. We road on a hay rack way out to pick out the perfect pumkin for me. It was a lot of fun. Happy Halloween!

What do you think about that pumkin Grandma?

Fall is here and the leaves are fallin'. Ava sure loves to play in the leaves.

Let me out...

Daddy put me behind bars because I am too cute. Actually I like playing here.
Please, just give me some bread and water. I can't stand it behind bars...oh will I ever get out?
