It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas....

Christmas is in full-swing at the Melan house with Madison loving all things Santa, Presents, and Reindeer. Trips to see Santa and the Reindeer at Roba's Farms and lots of Holiday parties are taking place!

I am too cute for words.  "Ta-da!"

Roba's Family Farm Fun with Mommy & Nana

It was a surprisingly warm, sunny day- perfect for some fall fun with Nana on her birthday! We went to Roba's Family Farm in Dalton, which Madison loves, but we hadn't been able to spend much time at so far this season.

 Feeding the sheep. Baaa.

Tractor Ride!

Look at how tall I am! Almost 2 1/2 feet!

Maddie loves the Chicken Show and had been talking about

this for days before hand.

Watching the chicken show!

Watching the pig race.

This is a HUGE pumpkin!

Fun with Friends!

Mommy and Maddie met up with our best buds Jaime and Evan for some fun at the pumpkin patch.

Pumpkin Picking at Miller's Orchards

Mommy and Maddie got out for some pumpkin picking fun at Miller's Orchards. We had a great time. Maddie tried to carry each pumpkin, no matter how big! What a sweetie you are, my heart. Love you!

My little pumpkin :)

I have to move all of these! Nothing is too heavy for me.

On the train- CHOO-CHOO!

Such a big girl.

I love you Madison. That face melts my heart.

Talking, talking, talking!
