The New Ward Times: November 2010

EXTRA! EXTRA! WARD FAMILY TO EXPAND...AGAIN!

It has been quite the fall (hence the lack of post on the New Ward Times). We have been super busy having lots of fun with Violet. She is growing so fast...RUNNING everywhere and says new words and makes new sounds every day. I cannot believe how much she has grown.

Speaking of growing, we also found out at the beginning of fall that WE ARE HAVING ANOTHER BABY! So, it has definitely been an eventful season and we feel so blessed. June will be here before we know it! We are super excited, overwhelmed, excited! Violet will be a great big sister. So, we have lots of adventures ahead in the Ward family and on The New Ward Times. Added bonus: My brother and sister in law are also having another baby in June...we are one week apart. So, Hallie will be a big sister too. Serena and I are close (as bub and I) so it just adds so much joy and fun to the pregnancy adventure. Stay tuned for updates and the "big reveal" in January.

The holiday season is approaching and there will be lots to update, especially our upcoming trip to Disney World with the Worthingtons. We cannot wait! Tis the season to have fun, be blessed and give to others. Love to all!

Holiday Hooplah: Happy Halloween!

Violet had a very eventful Halloween this year. On Friday, the whole family went to Boo at the Zoo. Vi and Hallie had fun and so did grammie and popi. Saturday, we went to Auntie Cecilia's house for trick or treating fun and party. She had probably 200 treaters. It was so fun. Sunday, we kept it low key and greeted treaters at our house. Violet loved holding up the candy basket for the treaters to get some goodies. It was so fun and our little bumble bee was too cute!

Weekend Fun: The Scott Pumpkin Patch

We took Violet to the Scott Pumpkin Patch to pick out a pumpkin and for some fun. She had a blast. She enjoyed the petting zoo, cruising the pumpkins and she even rode her first horse, Patches. She is growing too fast and we love her sooo much.

I want this pumpkin!

Charity Events: Race for the Cure

Mom, Violet and I participated in Race for the Cure this year with Violet's godmother. Wes was in the 3 Miles of Men cheering us on all morning. The crowd was insane but the company was great. Violet was a little lioness mascot of our team.
