Hayrides, Pumpkins, and Corn Fields

Okay so this past weekend we deceide that we needed to do something so we could enjoy the fall and get into the mood of Halloween. So we found out that there is this place called Poppell Farms that is outside of Jesup, GA which is not that far away just about 30 miles. They have this 10 arce Corn Field which is made into a maze. So we went Friday night because they do it in the door with people hiding in the field. It was way scary. Walking in the door though this corn and when you turned a corner you dont know what is on the other side cause it was so dark. It was alot of fun.
So we deceide to go back out there Saturday to enjoy the day time activities. They had a hayride that takes you out to the pumpkin patch and then you get to get a little pumpkin. The only dissapointment was that they try to grow their own pumpkins but the temperature in GA kills them and they dont survie. So they are not grown there. They had a little petting zoo with donkeys, ponies, ducks, goats, chickens, and bunnies. They had alot of little kids activities. They also had this lake that they use the water to help with the watering of the corn field. In the lake they have catfish. I am talking huge catfish, because they dont catch them they just let them grown old and die, they said they won't eat them. I was shocked. People around here dont eat catfish but that is my favorite kind of fish. It makes me miss home and going to Catfish Cabin in Lumberton. Anyways here are some pictures of the day.

This is the corn maze from the sky. Pretty cool I think. The white part is the path.
Here we are with our little punkins in front of us at the pumpkin patch.
This is Jeremy lost in the corn maze. It was tall.

This is the catfish I was talking about. Can you believe how big and they wont eat them. That is some good food going to waste.

This is just a picture of one of the trails down the corn maze. Can you imagine getting lost in that!!

I miss This!!!

Okay so laterly me and Jeremy has been I guess you would call it a little homesick. We have been thinking about how things were in Texas and Utah. I have to say there has been alot of stuff I miss that I never thought that I would. I been listening to the Trace Adkins song "You're Gonna Miss This" I dont know if that is the offical name of the song but you get the point. So I thought that I should make a list of the things that I miss so here it goes:

Things I miss in Utah:

  • Jamba Juice - What I would do for a Triple Berry Smootie about now
  • Enestein's Bagels - That and Jamba made a wonderful breakfast.
  • The cold weather - I never thought I would say this but I miss wearing sweaters and the chillin weather
  • The snow - I hated the snow the whole time but I think this year will be sad with no snow
  • Having so much around to do that was free - I mean there was so many places to go and take a walk
  • Del Taco - I think that was the name they were cheaper then Taco Bell and had some yummy nacho cheese

Okay, Things I miss in Texas:

  • Casa Ole or Senor Toas (cant spell it) - Yummy!!!!
  • Our Trailier - Having a yard to decrote for the holidays
  • The people in the Buna Ward
  • Dad's Sunday Lunch of Frito Pie
  • Hanging out with my Brother and Sister
  • Seeing friends from High School around town
  • Catfish - No one around here eats it and nowhere serves it, it is always some other kind of fish
  • Living in a Small town - I hate the cities
  • Just being around family

Well, that is all I can think of now! I am sure there is much more!! Okay now I got it out

Bad Newws

Bad news at the DRs
Current mood: sad

Okay so I have not up date laterly cause I did not have anything to say, but now I am ready. Okay so I had another DR appointment this past Monday. I was so hoping that it would bring good news that the 150mg of Clomid worked and then we could move forward. But nope good news. I still did not ovulate yet. So if we move forward it will be with the shots. Well, then he looked at the results of Jeremy's SA and that was not good news. It was really bad. So he said it is not important that i ovalute right now if his Sperm Analysis is bad. So now we have to schuldule another appointment for him to do another test. If the test turns out good then I will have to go do an out patience surgury to check my tubes and stuff. And this is the kicker. If his next test is bad again he said the only hope for us to get pregnant is by a IVF. Which IVF is a proceder that is not pay for by Tricare (our insurance) and you are looking at around $20,000 for one cycle and no guantuee that it will work.
So it took all I had not to start crying. So yeah I have been a little down. I just feel like it will never happen. Cause we will never have the money for a IVF or to even adopte. I know what every one is thinking you can just adopte. I have looked into that option but it cost lots of money and then you are just on a list for years. I just dont understand some days. We have so much love for children and have been wanting to share our love for years. I grew up always saying I wanted lots of kids ( I always wanted 6), which I still do but right now I just want one. So now I guess I should stop thinking about when I have a kid cause right now it wont happen and we are getting old. It is just so sad. I wish i could meet someone that needs someone to help them with their child or a teen that is giving it up so I could do a private adoption. I just want to open my home to others children. I know there are million of children out there needing someone to love, and I want to be there. I am thinking about being a foster parent but I dont know if since Jeremy is in the Army we can do it or since we live on post if we could still do it. I dont know. I hope so cause there are lots of kids that just needs some loves and it will be sad if they dont let me help those children out. Sorry for going and on, I am just sad and I want a child.

Okay well some good news is I am going to have a nephew! I am so excitied for my Adam and Kim and so happy for them, I just wish I live closer so I could spoiled it more. LOL! Anyways just wanted to say how happy I am for them!

Where oh where is it going to go??


Well, when I left Texas I did not think I should worry much about Hurricane, but then I found out that Fort Stewart is not far from the coast but the Atlantic coast dont get much hurricanes like the Gulf! Boy was I wrong. We thought TS Fay might hit us, we got alot of rain from it but was not a direct hit. Now we got Hurricane Hanna coming at us. It could hit the Carolinas but the National Hurricane center shows it hitting the GA and SC border which is Savannah, GA and Hilton Head, SC. So I am keeping my eye on this. Now I wish I was at home cause I know the roads and the back way and how to get out. Now I got to figure out what is the best thing to do. LOL! Oh my gosh, I just saw that now there is a TS Ike. Wow, 3 systems all at the same time, this is crazy!! Anyways I will keep a eye on everything.
