Fall Fun!!

So I know it has been a while since I last posted and much has happened since then. I have been really busy all summer with activities! But... I should tell you that I have also been a little lazy! But the kids are now back in school and doing great. Skyler is in first grade and Emma Lee is in pre-kindergarten! Growing up so fast!!

The weather is getting cooler and it is Halloween (I will post pics of the kids in costumes by Sunday, hopefully!)! The kids really do like this time of year. The leaves are changing, the air has a nip to it, and we like to curl up and drink lots of cocoa!! Several weeks ago, I took the kids to the Pumpkin Patch with my MOPS group. I was a little different than what I was expecting. I was remembering my childhood when my mom would take us to the pumpkin patch which was on a farm and you could actually cut your own pumpkin from the vine. Silly me, I forget sometimes that I am not in New England anymore!!! Anyway, we went over there and they had pumkins everywhere!! Not just regular pumpkins either, but ones that were pumpkin/gourd hybrids, all bumply and funky!! It was wonderful and the kids loved it!!!


My friend Kit, who is a professional photographer, organized the trip and she brought her camera. She ended up taking some great pictures of the kids and I. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful friend!! I can't wait to take them and have prints made! The colors were just wonderful!! When I get them, I will be posting them here for all to see!!
