Special Breakfast and Other Traditions


Almost every Saturday, Bard makes "Special Breakfast." We've been very purposeful about this-that we want Saturday morning-at least for an hour or so to be relaxing and family time. Normally it's pancakes and bacon or eggs, sometimes waffles or french toast. Bard always cooks and we chat with Evelyn about how Dada is making special breakfast. Today when we were at the grocery store, Evelyn was walking along side me and saw the pancake mixes on the shelf next to her. She said, "Pancakes, Dada, Bekfast." That is awesome : )


We went to the pumpkin patch a few weeks ago, the same one we took her to last year (pictures are posted to the right) and she had a blast. She is quite the city girl though and did not want to get dirty! But she loved the animals and the pumpkins ad still talks about it. Although I can't get her to say "barn," she calls it a "red house." City girl. We also went to our church Harvest Festival, where Evelyn was the cutest kid possible, dressed as Cindy Lou Who! She had a blast and was utterly exhausted from running around and trying the games. I hope that these are traditions that we continue to enjoy for years to come and as November and December approach, I know we will experience more new traditions.
