La la la la....La la la la Elmo's World!

Heidi was Elmo for Halloween! She loved to hug the outfit, but not so much loved wearing the outfit. We had to take these pics pretty quickly. We actually didn't end up going anywhere. But she was cute none the less!
Happy Halloween!

Reunion Slideshow

Ok so here it is!!! The slideshow I made and kept forgetting! Ha. Since no one sent any pictures in I used ones from my own collection. They are pretty amusing if I do say so myself. Enjoy!

Just a Swingin'

We had to search all over to find a swing for Heidi. We put it in the basement so we could use it this winter. She loves it. Which is kind of surprising because she hated the baby-swing.
Anyway, this is actually supposed to go on a swingset, but it works here too! Daddy did a great job installing it!
We were grilling so we had the garage door open. That why we are so bundled up. It's usually not so chilly!
Daddy being silly with Heidi.


I love the swing!

Fall is finally here!

I am so glad the weather is FINALLY turned cooler. I love fall and so does Heidi!
It so nice to go outside before lunch and not melt. :)
Here are some pics from our house!

This is the view from our mailbox. The leaves are just starting to change. I hope we get some more rain so they don't just dry up and fall off.

I couldn't get this picture to rotate. This is our pumpkin, Jack. He's reusable!

Heidi Lou-Who

These were too cute not to post.
It was bath time, and this is how Daddy styles her hair.
I thought she looked like one of the Dr Seuss characters from Whoville.
hehehee

Birds the Word

So we went to the Birmingham Zoo again last weekend. It was fun as always and not nearly as hot as last time. We started at the opposite side this time and went to the birds first.
You can walk in to this area and feed the birds. John took Heidi inside the area. She was a bit scared at first, but was quickly entertained. If you have food the birds immediately swarm you and three of them landed on John.

Muscadines or Scuppernongs?

So we were out in the front yard and I kept smelling something sweet and familiar. At first I couldn't place it. Then it hit me. Muscadines!
Well I dragged John around to help me locate them and we found a huge mess of them growing in the trees at the end of our drive. So of course I had to pick some. Since I was holding Heidi, John graciously helped pick them. And them stored them in his pants pockets. We gave some to Heidi to put in his pockets but she wouldn't let them go. Then squeezed them to mush. Which of course was fun too.
Anyway, then I started thinking, which is which? Are these muscadines or scuppernongs?
Well in looking up how to spell that, they are in fact muscadines.
Yum-O!
