Pumpkin Patch Time!



We made our way up Hwy 99 to the Airlie Hills Harvest Festival & Pumpkin Patch today. It was a gorgeous Friday afternoon and I have to say, this farm was AWESOME!!! The BEST pumpkin patch we've ever been too! It was in such a beautiful setting and there was so much to do. There was a hay maze, trike racing, a corn maze, a wheat box, farm animals, a fun tractor ride, GIANT pumpkins and the coolest thing ever...a huge tube slide that the kids could not get enough of (and the parents ;-)). I think we spent a good 3 hours at the farm. We can't wait until next year...and might even sneak back next week.

Mark in on the action! Giant tube slides are for grown-ups too!

Adorable!

Tractor ride out to pick our pumpkins.

Someone else on our tractor ride found these pumpkins! I was so jealous! Aren't they beautiful?

Looking for that perfect pumpkin.

We could not get the kids out of the wheat box. This was the only place Karlee wanted to be.

Wheat everywhere!

One bumpy potato sack ride!

Such a beautiful baby calf!

One crazy looking turkey!

Some of my favorite shots!





"Look, Mom. It's as big as me."

Countdown to Halloween


I got together with some cute ladies and made these darling advent calendars for Halloween. Is it bad that we've already eaten all the candy? We couldn't resist! Ha!

Fall Soccer


This is Macy's first year playing AYSO soccer. Her team is the Llamas & Mark is the head coach (thanks to his sweet wife who so willing volunteered him)! He's been doing an awesome job and has been taking his coaching job pretty seriously, designing drills and honing in on his key players. Macy hasn't been loving it! Two out of the four games, it has poured rain. Maybe when she scores her first goal, she'll catch the bug. If not....maybe softball?!?!?
