Fall Bliss

I LOVE fall. It's my FAVORITE time of the year and there have been so many things we've been able to do this year to enjoy the beauty!! Although it's been chili, we still have enjoyed the outdoors with some fun activities. My computer is giving me fits, so the pictures are out of order but I'll give you some descriptions of each....

This is my friend Holly. Holly and I grew up together at Northview in youth group and now are having babies together. We are due within a week of one another. She is having a boy and I am so excited for her in this new adventure!!! This is a baby shower at her parents farm in which we ate, sat by a bonfire, took a hay ride, played games...it was so wonderful!! What an awesome way to celebrate such a dear friend and her new bundle of joy. SO here's a belly shot of both of us. I don't have too many of me, mainly because I don't get a ton of pictures of myself taken, but also because I am on of those "carry a baby all over, I feel huge momma's" ;)! So I thought I would share humbly!

This is our annual tradition of Carmel High Homecoming Game. This year it was cold, but oh so fun with the girls. We get fed as alumni and the kids get to run and play next to the football field. Jenni and I both lead high school girls groups with our youth group, so we also had fun cheering them on with the marching band too!! AND Carmel won again ;)!!


We also went downtown Indy for a 2nd cousin's wedding and reception. It was so fun and really beautiful. The P got to dance and that was her "favorite". She loved dancing with the family and that she did. Here's a picture of her and Daddy at the reception site looking at the view and watching a helicopter land.

Toasting the bride and groom with Papa...except I think they were putting candy in their water and drinking it. Only Papa!!

Jenni thew me a baby shower with some of my sweetest friends and family. We went to Kona Grill and enjoyed great fun, food and friends. It was so wonderful. This baby girl got lots of beautiful outfits and sleepers, diapers, blankets, hats, shoes of her very own!! We were so blessed and so grateful!!

I just love all these girls!!

SO this is the most amazing cake that Jenni made and believe me it was every bit as delicious as it is gorgeous!! It was pumpkin cake with cream cheese icing...I know mouth watering!!! And we ate every single crumb!!
