Pumpkin Patch '09

The pumpkin patch this year was a lot of fun. I was surprised when Emily said that she actually wanted to go in and pet all the baby animals. But I figured for $1 we didn't have much to loose. She thought the baby goats were really cute and kept wanting to hold them. They kept nibbling at her fingers and clothes and she would say mom they are tickling me. She spent a good portion of the time in there. After we were done with the animals we headed to the pumpkin patch to find the perfect one. She tried to pick up many that were just too big and finally found one that was just right. There was also a crate of squash and she picked one of those as well but she calls it her banana.
Zachary update~ I receive letters from Zachary once a week. I look forward to that day so much. Last Saturday I received a call from him and is was so wonderful to hear his voice. He had all 4 wisdom teeth pulled and today was scheduled for a root canal. He said it wasn't actually that bad and got to get some rest afterwards. We are down to 17 sleeps until graduation. That day can't come soon enough! He is scheduled to go to Pensacola after boot camp for 21 weeks. Really hoping and praying that Emily and I can move there shortly after him. Should be a big change from Northern California!
