lakeland's blooms and butterflies festival

lakeland has the best festivals.  the month of august was the blooms and butterflies festival and we loved visiting multiple times throughout the month to pick sunflowers and see the butterflies.  noah always has a good time at lakeland!

noah is 3!

noah turned 3 on thursday and it was a fun-filled day for the birthday boy!  he started off the day in his cute "i'm 3 and diggin' it" t-shirt and then had a morning ride on his drivable power-wheels tractor.  after nap, we all headed to lakeland orchard at the request of the birthday boy.  he had a lot of fun showing his grandmas and grandpas around his favorite place.  after we left, we came home and had pizza on the back deck and he opened presents from mama and papa.  i can't believe he's 3!

love, laurie

a trip to knoebels amusement park

ryan and i have been wanting to take a trip back to knoebels for several years now, but we weren't able because noah was so small.  this year he was big enough to ride the rides and enjoy it so we went out for ryan's birthday.

love, laurie
