A Fall Visit From Nora Rae!

 We got a bonus visit from Bailey, Mason, and Nora in October. They were trying to not travel this semester, but then they kept seeing all the pictures we were posting of Clover and Willow, and decided they needed to come and meet them. Plus they had not seen the barn finished yet. It was a quick trip, but we'll take what we can get!

I just love her! She is the cutest, sweetest, funniest little sunshine around!

😂😂😂

The night they got here, we took them to dinner at The White Sparrow to get fry pies. We wanted them to try one of the few local places we have. 
On Saturday morning, Joyce and Phil came down to take some pictures of Nora meeting Clover and Willow.

Riding on Clover! 😍


Enough of the dress, Nora needed to be in her cowgirl outfit so we could get down to business! 😂

Much better! Now that she had her boots on, she could really start the cowgirling.

Reeses was much more interested in Nora this time. Reeses was SO EXCITED to have Bailey home, and I think she realized that Nora was part of the package now, so she decided to like her. 😁

I get a little teary when I see these pictures. 😭

Reeses has always loved my babies, and now here she is loving my baby's baby. 😊

It was Nora's nap time, so Willow was way more interested in her, than Nora was of them.

HeeHaw! That's my little donkey riding cowgirl!

Clover and Willow were super good with her until she started spitting at them. 😂  It was so funny! Every time they started to come close to her, she would let out a bunch of spit noises, and the donkeys would take off running. That game lasted awhile. 😅

Joyce caught this great picture of Willow. Maybe she was learning how to spit from Nora. 


Gah! I could die! 😍 I'm pretty sure Nora has Pops wrapped around her finger, and will probably be able to get whatever she wants from him. 

Could they be any cuter?!? 😄

Bailey's only request while they were here, was to take Nora to a pumpkin patch. We ended up with beautiful weather, and Nora got her first pumpkins from The Red Barn. Pumpkin patches are so fun with a little person along!

Nora-Grams-Pops


She was so sleepy, but look at that sweet face!

She liked her ride in the wagon.

So cute!

Nora was picking out a little pumpkin to paint.

Two seconds after getting back in the car, she was out! Riding donkeys and picking pumpkins is exhausting!

Next, we went to get a tour of Sawyer and Amanda's new house.

Sawyer's shirt is the best!

Everyone came over that evening to watch the Boise State game. We set up the big screen in the barn, ordered pizza, and had a fun night.

Grams and Pops with their favorite little buddy!

Nora is helping Sawyer get over his fear of babies. 😂

Game night!

Uncle Squiggy and Aunt NooNoo!

Before they left on Sunday morning, Bailey carved the big pumpkin they picked out, and we had a little photo shoot. 😄

She is such a good sport!

Just hamming it up in her pumpkin.

I seriously LOVE her!

There does come a time when every baby gets tired of sitting in a pumpkin, and we reached that time. This may be my favorite picture of the whole weekend. 😂

She reached her limit! Oh that face! 😅

And then they were off; back to school life. I offered a bunch of times to keep Nora for the rest of the semester, but Bailey was being stingy and kept telling me no. Psh, whatever! 😢
