Is it seriously October already??? Where did the summer go? It has been a busy summer for us, but now we are in the slow time of fall, so I thought it was a good time for a blg update!

Let's back up to Labor Day weekend......Aunt Kelli came to visit and Ella was ecstatic to spend some time with her! We went up to visit my parents, and of course got suckered into doing yard work :)

Ella was a huge help, she picked apples.....


and helped pick corn from the garden. Brandon and my dad had the unfortunate job of ripping the stalks out the ground.


She was a pro at taking the corn we put in the grass and putting it into the bins.


Here she is taking a much needed rest.


The next day we had my parents and Brandon's parents over for a cook out. Ella was super cute and happy in her pig tails!


Hangin with mom


and aunt Kelli


This was her favorite place to be that day....in the back of the car. She is a strange kid! :)


It was a great weekend and so wonderful to see my sister!! I miss her way too much!!!!
