Sweethearts on the Hill

After Sam and I came home from his field trip talking about how much fun we had, Richie and Charlie wanted to have a go at it too. So we went back to Maple Lane Farms to enjoy another day.   The boys were on the hunt for the Great Pumpkin! We had to stop to get a snapshot of how much we've grown over the years. Look at my little Chuckles compared to the first time we visited this pumpkin patch. He was 10 months old in the picture on the left ~ almost 5 in the one on the right. (Obviously the one on the left was taken just before we took him to get his perm and blonde highlights!) And here's Sam at age 2 on the left and 6 on the right.   Amazing what happens to these little creatures over the years. Here, they were running in and out of the corn maze… to do it again and again and again!   It's always easy breezy getting the "silly face" shots!   The good smiles are a little more challenging!   This is Charlie's ...

I'm very late in posting this one… Shortly after school started, Rocky Hill had it's first annual Fun Run. It was a great event which include many Olympians from the Knoxville area, and our own little athletes who ran a 1/4 mile race on the track around the playground.  I was proud of my little runner who came in second place in his age group! This makes me very hopeful that I might have a partner to run with in the coming years!! Great job Buddy! Momma selfishly hopes you loved your first big race!
