Lauren Anne Stone

This is a picture of Lauren Anne Stone. She is 1 pound 6 ounces and growing well. She has 15 more weeks until she comes into this world and we can't wait to meet her! The doctor said that everything is perfect and she is doing great. Now we just have to wait a couple more months. Thanks to "Ms. Debbie" for scanning her picture!!!

Bi-Water Farm

We woke up and got ready to take Will to Bi-Water Farm to pick out his pumpkin. Nathan and his mommy, daddy, and baby brother Luke went with us, too. We had a great time! We got there at 10 am and took the boys to the petting zoo. They loved the rooster that kept crowing and the silly goat that kept coughing. After the petting zoo, we took them over to "Pirate's Cove" where they could play in a little park and ride trikes around a little road. Unfortunately, the trikes were really heavy and big, so Daddy had to help Will ride around the path. We then went to get on a hay ride out to the pumpkin patch. Will loved the hay ride and he enjoyed seeing all the different plants growing out on the farm. We got out to the pumpkin patch and decided to go through a corn maze. That was lots of fun! They boys led us through the maze and we all made it out in one piece! Once we got to the pumpkin patch, Will picked out his pumpkin and he was "done." We still had to find our family pumpkin, so we walked around the patch for a while. Will and Nathan had a great time trying to pick up different pumpkins and Will even tried to pick up a broken one. That was the end of his mittens! They got very messy! Once we all found our pumpkins, we got back on the hay ride and went to buy our pumpkins from the store. We said goodbye to the Stewart Family and went out to lunch at a local Mexican Restraunt. Will fell asleep on the way home and we all took naps when we got home. It was a very fun day! Enjoy the pictures!

Keeneland

Today we took Will to Keeneland. Keeneland is a horse racing park here in Lexington. I've driven by it so many times, but I've never been to a race there. The first race began around 1:00, but we didn't leave the house until 4:15 since Will had to take his nap. We made it in time to see the last two races. Will was very quiet as he watched the horses run around the track. He didn't quite understand why everyone was cheering, but I think he had a great time. We went to see the horses after the race and Will got to pet two horses. They weren't the race horses, but they were the escort horses that take the race horses out onto the track. Their names were Trouble and Easy and they were very sweet. Will got to see all of the jockeys in their silks and he even got a pair of their goggles! They were giving them out to the kids as they passed by. It was a great activity for our Sunday afternoon and it was FREE. I guess they don't charge admission so late in the day!
