Perfect Fall Weekend

For the past few weeks, I have been working on Saturdays--leaving Vaughn and Carter on their own and leaving me exhausted!  This past weekend, I got a break and we had a great weekend!  Saturday was the Texas/Oklahoma game and Carter was of course showing his Longhorn pride!  The Longhorns won and Carter consoled Fauntie Sara and Funcle Eric! We all took a late nap on Saturday afternoon after the game, which meant that Carter was not going to bed on time.  Since he was going to be up anyway, we all headed back to Shelby and Michael's house to hang out for a while.  Carter experienced his first campfire and was mesmerized.  On Sunday we all went to the Pumpkin Patch.  To be honest, this was mostly just a photo op, not much of a shopping trip, but it was fun to see Carter take it all in.  Vaughn and I, having both grown up in Richardson, have memories of going to the same pumpkin patch when we were kids.  It had a big witch on top and a pumpkin on a cord that would fly up when you tried to grab it.  We wanted so badly to share the same memories with Carter, but of course, things change and it is not there anymore.  We decided to go to a pumpkin patch in Richardson and it was very cool.  They had spots to take pictures all over the place and the prices weren't too bad!  Our weekend was great and very autumnal!  Carter is just becoming such a little kid already.
