Grandpa, Hobo Stew, Baby Elsa, & a Pumpkin Patch

This weekend was a full one for Mr. Dawson.  It started off on Friday by heading to Kansas City to pick up his Grandpa Viar (my dad) from the airport.  Saturday we headed to my family's cabin in Abilene for the annual Hobo Stew party! Dawson enjoyed being outside and seeing his family, but hated the flowers Grandma Engle had there (as seen in the video below)!

There are those darn flowers!

 

The hobo stew!  Everyone brings a canned item and we throw it in the pot.  The soup always turns are really good somehow!

 

 

 

 

I love my aunt Ky!

Hey everybody!

I love my auntie Rach too :)

Everyone standing around getting ready to pray...big group!

Then on Sunday we got to meet some of our good friends' new little one....Elsa Joy!  She is soo beautiful :)  We love her already!  (Dawson wasn't able to meet her yet, but got to hang out with his buddy Marcus in the waiting room!)

Later in the day we got to go to Dawson's first pumpkin patch!!  He loved it :)

Goats scare me!

So do cows...

And corn tunnels...

Checking out the fire truck with grandpa

SLIDE!!!!!

I wish I could figure out how to turn this thing on!

Grandpa and I.....I made him be the lady...hehe :)

Getting taller!

I'm a pumpkin!

Our little family :)

Why do they keep making me do this??  Oh, I guess because I am a cute turkey!

Combines are cool!

Check out the sign...good thing mom and dad brought the "good" stroller.

Are we lost?!?

FINALLY heading home...I had a busy, but fun weekend!

Today (Sunday) is also Dawson's 9 MONTH birthday!  However, we have his doctor appointment tomorrow, so I will wait to post his 9 month update :)
