Fall Festival






On Halloween, it's become a tradition to go to a Fall Festival at a local church. It's a great time and the girls loved the bungee jump. Kiley even did 3 flips in the air on this thing. We got there early enough that they had three turns before the lines were too long. We met the Morales' there and had another fun fall day! Somehow, all my pictures were before the Morales' arrived?

Did I mention October was field trip month??






Craig took the girls to The Amazing Maize Maze. They ended up on the hunt with the McCoys. They had a great time, although I think it took 2 and 1/2 hours to get through it.

New Hair for Kiley....












My girls growing up. She really wanted a hair "style" instead of a cut. So, instead of me attempting this, we took her to a salon. This was her first trip to a professional hair salon (except once at super clips where I had to go home and fix her crooked hair). She was very excited and picked out the style herself. It looks great on her, although she's looking a little older. sad.....It was styled with a flat iron, but she can also leave it natural which gives it a cool funky curl look.

October was field trip month.



Later in October we went to Riverbend Farms pumpkin patch. This was the best place we've been yet for pumpkins. Lots to do. They had emus, bison, billy goats, horse, cow, turkeys, play area made from farm equipment and a grain silo, indian and bee areas, and a HUGE slide! It was a blast, we spent most of the day there and came home with lots of pumpkins.

Apple Orchard Field Trip






In October, we went on a field trip to Apple Hill Orchard with Classical Conversations. It was lots of fun! They showed us how they sort the apples, make apple cider, and all about bees. Bees are brought in to pollinate the fields. Did you know that the female bee feeds the male? Interesting.....
