Camp Crystal and a trip to Coon Hollo Corn Maze



Last week was busy for everyone in our family. I went out to Camp Crystal with my 5th graders for three days and then Robert was out of town for a tennis tournament this weekend. Thankfully Robert was able to bring Coby out to Camp Crystal Thursday afternoon - I was NOT ready to go a whole day without seeing my baby!

We've had record heat the last few days with the humidity making it feel like 100 degrees outside.

Poor little guy was exhausted by the time they had to leave!

Since Robert was in Daytona for his tennis tournament the rest of the weekend, Coby and I decided to drive down to Micanopy with my friend Melissa and her three kids. Everyone had a great time! We swung on a tire swing, took a hay ride, and fed cows. Check out our photos on this link: http://s618.photobucket.com/albums/tt261/we3taylors/?albumview=slideshow

Pumpkin Patch

This week we celebrated the beginning of October by visiting a pumpkin patch just down the road from our house. The pumpkins aren't actually grown here in Florida, they're from New Mexico! There were tons to choose from - small, large, bumpy smooth, flat, round...
Finally we found one that was just right!
Jacoby wasn't real fond of the feel of grass on his feet. I guess that's the city-boy in him...we tried to sit him on the bales of hay and he wanted NOTHING to do with it!
Back at the house he gave his pumpkin an official "taste test."
The cats seem to have accepted that Jacoby is now mobile and able to catch up with them. Caesar is especially patient and will let Coby "hug" and "kiss" him.
But enough is enough and after a few minutes he'll run off in search of higher ground. :o)
