Pickin' out a Pumpkin

We took the girls to pick out their pumpkins, and they took their time finding the perfect one.
Last week, before both of the girls got really sick we went to Gardner Village with some friends. It is a really neat place with lots of little shops ad boutiques and they decorate it really cute with witches and Halloween stuff. The day after this trip Taylor was hit HARD with the Hand Foot Mouth Virus. Her mouth was full of kanker and cold sores. She was miserable and couldn't eat, drink or sleep. We took her to urgent care and they said since it's a virus there was nothing they could do and she just needed to ride it out. Then we discovered that Katelyn got it! Katelyn wasn't as bad but they were miserable and had little sores on their hands and feet as well. It took a week for that to pass, and now this week is looking up!

Very cute pics! I can't even imagine how much of a pain that virus must have been. When Kara just gets a stuffy nose, we're all miserable because she can't sleep. I would have never thought it was a big deal pre-Kara days.

OK, seeing those big smiles on the girls faces holding their pumpkins makes me wish I was there. Those moments are what I miss so much! I hate that I don't get to squeeze them every day anymore!!!

I LOVE Gardner's Village. It's right by my mom's house and I go every time we are there. You have to go to their naborhood bakery ( I think that's how it's spelled) and get a lemon bar. YUMMMMMM!!!!
