We took Ellie to pick out a pumpkin today. Also, I took her on a hayride. For those who are unfamiliar with the term, its when a tractor pulls a wagon full of haybales and people ride on the wagon.. Not too sure what the appeal is without a beer, but hey, it was only 10 in the morning..

Ellie loves being outside and she helped to pick out a nice pumpkin.

We went on they hayride and she got a little grape sucker which she loved.

Going out to the “big” city of Waterloo tonight. My buddy Pat Bush was called to active duty. He leaves next week for Mississippi for training then goes to Iraq at the start of next year. He is having a going away party tonight.. Should be fun.

Later,
Chris
