October

Scenes from October

 A visit to Ohio and Brumbaugh fruit farm

 

Carving Jack O Lanterns

 

Decorating for Halloween

 

And heading out to trick or treat.

And then it turned cold

While Thanksgiving was nice and warm, by Saturday, it was darn near freezing.

But, it was Krista and Mia's last day in Tennessee

so we headed out to Tellico for some sight seeing.

The last time we went to Bald River Falls was in the summer. 

A 36 degree day in front of a waterfall is pretty uncomfortable.

Hence the lack of a decent picture. 

All in all, we had a great visit with Krista and Mia and can't wait for them to come back down.

A Warm Fall Day

After hanging out for awhile on the swingset

we took advantage of the warm day to walk outside and visit the farm animals 

Of course, no walk is complete without a swing 

but 2 yr olds don't always like to take turns. 

Which may result in some hair pulling, followed by I'm sorry hugs. 

After visiting the chickens, there was some more walking 

to go visit the cows. 

And this guy, who used to hang out in our front yard.

The cows weren't sure what to think 

And neither was Mia when that big one there mooed at her. 

Of course, it was still Thanksgiving.

So we had to say good bye to the cows and head back inside for pie!

Skipped right through Fall

Since it is a week before Christmas and all, I thought maybe I should get around to posting these Fall pics before I throw out some Christmasy ones. So here it is. Our early Fall trip to Brumbaugh fruit farm with 7 kids and 2 adults. Ahhh.

(On a side note, as if Christmas wasn't enough to celebrate, as of 12-12-11 I am officially a graduate!)

And good night.
