Fall Festival-in'

Last night we took the kids to the Jones family's Fall Festival. They are dear family friends of ours, and Jake is now my employer (he owns HonorNet Publishers). We love being on their ranch, and the kids had a blast!

All dressed up on the porch, ready to load up for the trek to the ranch. I had fun using face paint this year on the pirate and cat.

Daddy and Hot Sauce cheese it up.

Here is Emerson, 13 months old, the last time we were able to go to this fall festival. She'd like for you to know she was the original ladybug of the family. As I'm comparing these two pictures, I realize I made Emerson's cute little antennae... gosh, gone are the days of creative craftiness! What did I do with all of my free time with only one child?! I guess I made antennae! Hayden should consider herself lucky that I slapped a bow on her head.

Getting some good Mr. Jake hugs on the way to the pony rides.

I just love this picture.

Hot Sauce wasn't afraid of the animals at all.

Look at this pond... hello gorgeousness. Jason and I have an invitation for horseback riding anytime we want. Yes!!!
