The Great Pumpkin Search

Is anyone looking for a pumpkin? Farmer Madi knows where to find one.... Just follow her....

Ok, so seriously, how cute is that? Madi was having so much fun on all of the props at the pumpkin patch. She helped direct wheelbarrow traffic at the row signs.....

She helped pick out pumpkins from the wagon.....

Moving right along on our tour of the patch.... Can I just tell you how much Madi loved the tractor? A girl after my own heart!

When we got down to business, Bryon had the great idea to put Madi in the dirt filled wheelbarrow. For a good 10 minutes she wouldn't pay attention to anything. She was too busy making sure there wasn't a clean spot left on her.

We got her attention long enough to snap a quick shot of her on her big adventure with Dad.

Someone should have maybe told Bryon that wheelbarrows don't come equipped with shocks. He was hittin' those furrows so hard, I thought Madi's brand new chompers would come flyin' out! She didn't care though, she was having fun!

After searching high and low........

We found "The One".... Madi couldn't have been happier!

Next on the "To Do" list is to carve these bad boys. I'm sure that will be interesting. I'll be sure to have my camera handy and I'll post as soon as we finish! Happy Halloween everyone!

5 New things you may not know about Madi

- She knows how to spell her name and has for a while now.
- She is incredibly smart! She picks up everything like a sponge! We have to watch what we say around her, she already has 2 swears in her vocab and knows how to use them.... Oops!
- She REFUSES to be potty trained! She knows what she is supposed to do, she just doesn't want to. She can be SO stubborn... definitely her momma's child!
- She loves to play with trains. Who woulda thought?
- She never really out-grew the security spoon thing. Her spoons have just grown in size along with her. She now plays AND sleeps with my big wooden cooking spoons.

Not long after Madi was born we noticed that she would gasp for air when she slept. We asked her Doctor about it and at first he checked her throat and didn't find anything, so he told us that all babies do that and not to worry. The problem was, she never stopped and I couldn't stop worrying. At her next appointment I again asked him about it and he said that as a precaution we would have her hooked up to a monitor for a couple of days and test her to see where her levels were. He said that the alarm might go off but not to worry. Well the alarm NEVER quit! Now we have an appointment with a specialist on October 1st. Wish us luck that everything is ok and that she will be better soon!

Georgie was SO sick!

Georgie was SO sick!

Not long after we bought George he got really sick. We were really worried about him and didn't know what we were going to do. After about a week with the vet it was discovered that he had very severe ulcers (apparently his cushy life was just too much to handle!) When he came home he had an IV line sewn into his neck and we had to give him lots of meds! He laid in his stall all day and it was so sad to watch! But he pulled through like a champ and he is back to rockin and rollin! We love this guy!

Buddy Boy

Buddy Boy

This is Buddy. Bryon bought buddy when we started dating. He was looking for a dog and I found him on the internet. Bryon just had to have him! He was such a cute puppy. It took some adjusting to get used to being at our house. When he was about 6 months old he was trampled by one of our horses. We had to take him to the vet to get all fixed up. Buddy hasn't quite learned his lesson yet though. He is always having close calls. I guess we'll just wait for his next emergency. In the mean time he has become an excellent bird dog and Bryon LOVES to take him duck hunting!

Sparky Park

Sparky Park

This is Sparky. He started out as a barn cat but has since turned into one of the dogs! Sparky was born in a storage box at the feed store, Saddle Up. When he and his litter mates were old enough to leave mom he didn't know how to walk. Because he was raised in a box he never had to walk. I took him home and kept him in a crate in the barn and I had to bottle feed him milk. It just so happened that at the same time, Molly was going through a false pregnancy and had milk but no babies. She felt that it was her duty to raise Sparky. She took him in an nursed him and cared for him. To this day they still love each other and Sparky eats and sleeps with the dogs. Now if he could just figure out that he is a cat and start eating the mice in the hay we would be in business!

Stormy the half faced wonder!
