It was just three years ago today that we met our sweet Lina.

Here are some snaps from this year’s pumpkin hunt. We joined Stephanie’s sister and her family at the pumpkin patch to cut some real live pumpkins (and pick up a few gourds for fun).

Check it, people. Though she never cared much for her fancy German tricycle, the kid kicks butt on her Specialized “Hotrock.” She flies through the neighborhood squealing with delight, Mama running behind her. Ahh, summertime.
