Fall is here!

Fall is in the air!  It is getting cooler here every day and it even smells like fall.  This weekend my mom came to visit for about 5 days.  We had a great time on Saturday when we headed to Jacksonville with my neighbors and their children to a pumpkin farm. While there we went on a hayride to the pumpkin field where we got to pick our own pumpkins.  We chose 3, a small one, a medium sized one, and large one.  Afterwards we weighed our pumpkins and then choose a few mums to go with.  There was an awesome bakery there, and I chose an apple jack. It was not nearly as good as my great grandmother and grandmother made though.On Sunday Mike's mom and stepfather came to visit.  We all went to the seafood festival in Morehead City.  This was like a local fall festival with seafood everywhere!  While there we had the most delicious Tomato Pie, and ate some really great BBQ Shrimp.   The best part of the festival however was when Mikes mom pointed out that Maddie has cut her 1st tooth!!!!! I almost cried right there on the street!Mike and I both had to work on Monday and Tuesday of course, but Maddie and her Nunny (Sheila) got to spend the whole 2 days together.  I am positive that they both had a great time.  Maddie even told me so on Monday when I heard her laugh out loud for the 1st time.  Mom and Mike had both heard this before, but she had been keeping her sweet little giggle a secret from me, and then right in the middle of Belks she let it loose for about 15 minutes.  Man it was FANTASTIC!I hope everyone likes the pictures, and I can't wait to see you all really soon!  Sarah B is coming this weekend, so stay posted for details of our adventures!
