Preschool pumpkin patch

Yesterday, Jackson had a field trip with Preschool to the pumpkin patch! This is one of our favorite field trips. It's actually held on the Preschool Director's property! So much fun. Enjoy some pictures!


His prize pumpkin!
For a kid who has had quite a bit of fear of bounce houses, he was in this one for a LONG time!

this huge ball is always a major hit! 


on a hayride chomping down on freshly made kettle corn- yum yum!
the kids all had an opportunity to feed the "bad" kettle corn to the cows ;)

S'more time!
He even made one for me! :)

Roaring River 2014

The second weekend of October, we headed out for our annual Fall camping trip to Roaring River State Park! Unfortunately, we were also bringing a weekend of rain with us :(  But, we had fun regardless and I have never been more thankful to have our camper than I was this weekend!

The most amazing thing I have realized about our kids is that they have fun regardless of the weather. The only complaint I heard from them was not wanting to put on their raincoat.  Other than that, they carried on as usual...fishing, riding bikes, playing in the dry creek bed, and just hanging out with their cousins and friends.

We love camping and all of the memories we are making with our kiddos.  Enjoy some pictures of the fun!
Maria, Christopher, and Jackson- the 4 year old trio!

Lily, Lola, and Bailey- girlie girls
lunch time!

Aunt Sarah brought the coolest teepee!  Too bad the rain didn't allow her to keep it up :(

Aunt Carissa brought the face paint!  Jackson was a crocodile :)

I printed a Nature Scavenger hunt off of Pinterest and the kids had fun finding little treasures. Here's Daddy rewarding them all for their hard work with what else? Candy!!

I absolutely love these shots Daddy took.  Jackson loves fishing!
