The Donaho's

We had a date today with my cousin, Devon, and her little girl, Karsyn. Garrett made his first appearance at Chick-fil-A. Then we headed to the Pumpkin Patch in Plano. Karsyn was such a good girl and helped with Garrett! Chick-fil-A... Napping on the way... Devon & Karsyn... The whole gang... Just one of the pumpkins... Two little pumpkins...

Marcus had to buy the cookbooks ahead of time in order for us a get a ticket, and the tickets just gave us the opportunity to stand in the line. The book signing started at noon, and by 11:15 there were over 300 people in line....all of them in front of Annette and Marcus (who arrived before us). So Zane & I got to Uptown, parked the car, got out the stroller and headed to the store. As we were heading to the back of the line, one of the Sur La Table associates asked us if we had a baby in the stroller (dumb question, but I let it slide). At that very moment I started to feel my temperature rise because I was expecting her to tell us "sorry, no strollers". However, to our surpris...
