October 10-11

We had another great weekend back in Missouri this past weekend. We were worn out when we finally got home Sunday night, but had lots of fun!

Saturday morning we got up early and headed to Pumpkin Patch to meet the rest of th Pollard family for our annual outing there. It was cold, but we all bundled up and had fun picking out our pumpkins, feeding the deer, and taking some pictures.

After the pumpkin patch we headed to Shelbina for a few minutes of downtime and lunch before Kale & I had to leave for Paris for my cousin's baby shower. While we attended the baby shower Jason stayed in Shelbina to shoot his bow and make sure he got his deer tag bought.

Cousin love...Rhett posing with Kale

Callie before her shower. She got lots of nice things and should have a good start for when the baby gets here!

The "diaper cake" and the table where we decorated onesies. There were definitely some cute ones made and I wish I would have gotten a picture, but I didn't.

Callie opening one of her many gifts!

We left Paris without helping cleanup to get back to Shelbina so we could get ready for our Pollard family pictures. Yes, it was cold outside, but we all managed to stay warm and got some really good pictures. Check them out at www.photos2remember.com.

It was 40 degrees when we started at 5 o'clock so we stayed in the truck until everything was ready :)

Justin & Chase racing. I'm not positive...but I think experience (the old guy) won this race!

After pictures we headed back to Ed & Lola's house for supper and to hang out. Megan, Leslie, & I took this picture before we ate since we rarely have one taken together

Sunday afternoon we had lunch at my mom & dad's house for my birthday! Lasagna, other stuff and lemon meringue pie! Everyone made it and we all got to hang out the rest of the afternoon.

Jason went deer hunting both Sunday morning & afternoon, but didn't have any luck. He got in after dark so we didn't get home Sunday night until late and were all definitely worn out, but we are glad we were able to be back & see all the family!
