Run of the River

 

I love the Run of the River~

It’s our Favorite Getaway Escape!

We have been to our Favorite B&B over a dozen times in Leavenworth, WA & are Never disappointed!

Right off our deck, both days, we were entertained by a number of Deer!!

The B&B sits on a Wild Refuge.  The Deer, Bears, Birds, Squirrels, & Honkers are plentiful.

And this time of year, the Grounds have Over 4000 lbs of Pumpkins and Scarecrows about. 

There was even a Big Ol Scary Pregnant Lady this trip!!

I revealed to my Dad this week how much I already weigh & he laughed hysterically for minutes!!!  I hope God knows to be prepared on my Judgment Day, because I have some questions for him!!!  I want to know how it is that I turn into a Tundra Wookie while pregnant and yet have to take medication Daily to control my vomiting???  I feel like a Swollen Umpa Lumpa!!

Our news on Sweet Lil Ellie Jo was not very good last week.  She still continues to have issues & we will have another Ultra Sound on Nov. 17th.

BUT, she has kick boxing class every morning & evening ;)  She is active & we are still very hopeful that when she finally arrives she will be healthy & strong!!

 

 

Pumpkin Patch & the Reveal of a Pregnant Tummy

I have had an abundant amount of people asking me recently if I’m about to “Pop” any day!!  I try to kindly say “not for another 2 1/2 months!!!

We had an Absolutely Gorgeous Day here today!  Sean was off for Columbus Day & as soon as Jonathan got home from School we headed down the street to the Pumpkin Patch.

6 1/2 month’s Pregnant with Elizabeth Joan (Ellie Jo).  Elizabeth was my Great Grandmother’s Name & Joan was Sean’s Mom’s name, both incredible Women!

I wish I had this Wagon in my yard!

We started off in the Corn Maze & I must say that J is quite the Navigator.

This Corn Maze is no joke!  This is on top of 1 of the bridges and we are surrounded on all 4 sides of fields of corn.

Can you see the White House?  This is the owner of the Patch & Christmas Tree Farm’s Home.  Can you imagine your front yard being Rows & Rows of Christmas Tree’s ;)

I love wandering thru all of the pumpkins.  They are All so unique & I find myself wanting All of them!

So, since I couldn’t have all of them, I made Sean Scavenge about for the Perfect Pumpkins.

Once he would hike one up on his shoulder I would shout “Nope, not that One”

And no trip to the Pumpkin Patch is complete until you get at least a few Hay Bales!

Luckily I brought these 2 studs along to help out.

Thank you Hunters for the Great Corn Maze & Pumpkins.

And a Special Thanks to the Weather!!!

I find it easier to be a Semi Nice Pregnant Person with Clear Blue Skies & Sunshine!!

Rain+Pregnancy=Mommy Dearest!

Yesterday afternoon after J’s Sopping Wet Soccer Game, we decided to dry off & just stay home & do a Project!

Every year Jonathan & I make a Christmas Ginger Bread House from Costco.  It’s a nice & EASY Complete set ready to go!  This year at JoAnn’s Fabrics they had a Wilsons Halloween House that I THOUGHT was similar~I was wrong, Very Wrong!

This Messy, Annoying Little Halloween House put my Hormones into overdrive!  Do not attempt one of these if your on the verge of joining the Nut House!

Good thing my Mommy Dearest Mood didn’t completely ruin Jonathan’s Fun, he actually said while we were doing the project that “At least you being Frustrated gives you something to do since you were complaining about being bored”!! ;)

J seriously was eating the Gross Black Frosting & the who knows how old candy that they put in these boxes!

J & his Photographer were making such a hype over this project just to Annoy me even more, I just know it!!!

Look at the Rain coming down during J’s soccer game!!!  Here in WA Nothing is cancelled due to the rain~we would never do much of anything if that were the case.  But up until 2 days ago, the weather had been Fantastic!!  They say this winter should be a Mighty WET one~so long sunshine!

Didn’t stop these boys, they splished & splashed up & down that field.

You can really see it here, it was down right pouring, and we were ALL soaked, umbrella’s and All, it was raining from every direction!

Good Game J, way to keep your Head in it ;)

P.S. I don’t know who that mean lady was that came over to help you with your Halloween House, but I’ll be sure to tell her not to come back!!
