The Purse Project
Addie has developed a penchant for purses. Lots of purses. A photo of that collection will have to be posted.
She typically grabs one on the way out the door, whether it is to the mailbox or a car ride.
The purses collect her daily ephemera and then get re-deposited in her purse “area” (used to be anywhere downstairs; now she has a special purse shelf).
This is the first post in what I imagine will be a series of purse and contents photos. So without further ado, here’s purse one and purse two.

Here’s a few quick photos of Addie running around the yard at her grandparents:
Pumpkin Patch time…
It’s that time of the year again when we bundle up and head out to the Hill Country for a pumpkin patch visit. This year it was actually cold enough to bundle up a bit. Addie’s been to Sweet Berry Farms three times now. Let’s take a quick look at each visit:
She really only wanted to go to see the “yoats” (goats). That and arrange the little pumpkins in neat orderly lines on the hay bales. The big hit of the day was pumpkin ice cream (“special treat!”).
William stayed bundled with Mama during the whole trip and Em alternated between watching Addie and sporting Addie’s hat.
You can see the rest of the pictures from this year’s trip as well as some other fall fun here.
