Our First Fall Festival

My friend Monika invited us to the Hay Creek Fall Festival last weekend.  Neither of us had ever been there and we weren't sure what to expect but we knew we were looking for some kind of Fall activity to do.  It wasn't quite what we had in mind but it wasn't bad either. 
 
There were a lot of old tractors and military vehicles there on display.  There was a glass blowing station where they were actually demonstrating how to blow glass (don't be dirty).  There were a lot of people dressed in war attire and a lot of little craft tents.

We had to park in a field and then be taken by bus to the actual festival so our babies got to take their first bus ride.  I think Monika and I both agree that we aren't in any rush to send our babies off on their first bus ride without us!
 
The Poppas were pushing the strollers while the Mommas were gossiping :)
 
Miss Maya looks thrilled!

Only my child. 
 

 Baby Girl sortof kindof looks like the devil here...kind of scary.

But she did like the horse.
 
And so did Miss Maya!
 

Like I said, it wasn't quite what we had expected but it was ok.  We got to eat some good food and Monika and her husband got to try some PA Dutch foods they had never tasted before.  It was a nice day for our families and that's all that matters!

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,

I'm Not Gonna Lie

Anyone who knows me know that I LOVE Christmas.  I love the decorations.  I love to decorate my own house and see all of the other cool decorations other people have.  There is a house down the street from us that always has more lights and decorations than I have ever seen in one yard.  It's a bit much but it's an attention grabber. I love the Christmas tree.  I love to get the tree out each year (yes we have a fake because I can't stand the needles) and I love to decorate it.  Growing up, our family would decorate the tree together with all kinds of ornaments that we had collected over the years.  I like to do themes for my trees.  Last year I did pink and silver in honor of the newest member of our family.  I'm really hoping to instill the tradition of decorating the tree with my kids. I love finding the perfect gifts for people and I love to watch their reactions when they open those gifts.  I generally wait until I have purchased ALL of my gifts, I sort them

Big News!

We have been trying very hard to keep this to ourselves for just a little while longer but I can't wait anymore!    Baby Miller #2...due 09/01/13!!!!!!!!! I am 8 weeks and 1 day I have known since Christmas Eve I am much more tired and much more nauseous this time around I haven't gained a single pound yet, unlike last time I am not so secretly hoping it's another girl If this one is anything like Baby Girl, he or she will be born mid-August I've been leaving hints all over the place but no one noticed! I am so excited!   I've already had one doctor's appointment but I was only 7 weeks so there wasn't much to do.  We couldn't hear the heartbeat or anything so the next appointment will be much more exciting!  My next appointment isn't until February 11th so that's when I'll get to hear and possibly see my next little monster!  So exciting!   PS:  Notice the blog title?!
