Fall Fun!











So anyone who reads this knows I don't know how to put pictures on here and move them around, they sort of just go wherever and frustrate me to the point where I almost hit this stupid computer every time. So there always ends up being a row of them somewhere, hopefully.

ANYWAY. This fall has been so fun already. I love fall. (Winter is my most favorite season, but fall is beautiful). The leaves are starting to turn colors and look so pretty and the cold air feels amazing. The clothes are more fun. There are lots of activities to do! Endless options. This year I took the kids to the corn maze, and pumpkin patch. They are known to be scared of lots of things, especially things that make loud noises. I was determined to have them pick a pumpkin and to get to the pumpkin patch you had to go on a hay ride BEHIND A TRACTOR--loud. I had a pit in my stomach thinking, they are going to cry, embarrass me, throw fits and not want to go on it, well I have never been more wrong. They climbed right up onto the wagon and sat on the hay, I even tried to hold Brooklyn cause she is more afraid of some things and she wouldn't let me. Even when the tractor started up and we started going, they were so happy and just kept saying "bumpy!" I was seriously so proud, weird to be proud of them for that I guess but I was. It was such a relief that they didn't draw any unwanted attention to us, they were adorable. We got out to the pumpkin patch and found our pumpkins, I told them they had to carry their own since I had to carry mine and it was bigger and our bag etc.. well needless to say I was carrying 3 pumpkins and my bag. Thankfully they had these little barrel wagons to haul your pumpkins around in until you leave and pay for them.

They played in the corn box, played on the slide and stairs, rode in the cow barrel train thing and had a GREAT time. We were there for 3 hours, which was crazy to me. Totally didn't expect them to be so good. I am really glad I went, and really sad Brett wasn't able to come since he had to work, that dang work! But next year he plans on going for sure.

ALSO something we did this last week, was make pizza as a family. Haha not really a fall activity, but it was fun. Brett text me while he was at work and said he wanted us to make pizza for dinner, so I got all the stuff and we did. The kids thought it was cool, they just wanted to eat the cheese and toppings but it was cute. I snapped a few pics in between trying to help Brooklyn put things on her pizza. So they will be somewhere on this blog!!! That's all for now!
