Pumpkin Fest

For the last few years we've always gone to Festival Foods to get our pumpkins.  They have a ton of them, they're always really nice, and they're only $2!  Plus they have food and an inflatable thing for the kids.  I wish there were a pumpkin patch closer, because that would be fun.  But this is nice and convienent!  Last year was really hot, and so was this year! 

One of her tamer outfits, but had to wear the pumpkin ponytail holders to be festive....


She is normally NOT a fan of these things - she always gets scared and I usually have to go up and get her.  Kailee went up with her this time, so she was okay going up, but was terrified going down.  She did go a second time, so it couldn't have been too bad....

Apple Picking

Last weekend we went to the apple orchard!  It was a beautiful day, and they have other fun stuff to do besides just picking apples.  We did get our yearly bag though, and have so far made just a crisp - the rest we've been eating.  It's been too hot out since then to bake!  I wanted to get some cute fall pictures - it's my favorite time of year to take pictures.  I hope to get more with some nice colorful leaves later this month.




 Enjoying some hot cider...she didn't pick too many this year...guess it's not that cool anymore....






 Jocelyn thought this giant hay bale pile was pretty fun - she spent a lot of time climbing up and down







 We made it thru the corn maze and didn't get lost!
