Autumn Fun



It's definitely a busy time of year, but OH SO FUN!!!






This is our trip to the Corn Maze at Thanksgiving Point. We went a few days before Halloween and it was pleasantly on the warm side. Yes, I know Avery's hair is a mess, she took out her barettes!



















Alex, Eli and JT trying to decide which way to go.









My cousin Ben got married the day before Halloween so Avery and I went to the reception at Wheeler Farm, it was good to see family that we don't see too often. But the best part was

when sweet little Thomas actually asked Avery to dance. She was a little unsure at first but they got it down! Such a cute little moment!










Halloween!!!!!


I don't know what else to say, we had a fabulous night. We had MUMMIES for dinner and the older boys went trick or treating (before I got the camera out) with their friends from the neighborhood and their cousins. They scored BIG in the candy dept, which I have since had to hide from them, oops I mean myself;).




























This is my "Pottery Barn catalog" photo from Halloween. They seriously are so cute at this age!!










We have been raking leaves, they are

NEVER-ENDING around here! But the kids have had NEVER-ENDING fun hiding in them. They love to play "Ghosts in the Graveyard"! (This is a VERY small sampling of all the leaves!)







I did some Fall-ish decorating! I know it's funny for those of you who have been to my house. I have hardly decorated the regular parts of my house (I really am working on it, just indecisive and BUSY), but the leaves falling outside made me want to celebrate the season and put some of my holiday decor out where it could actually be enjoyed.


My goal is to have made some serious decorating "headway" before the end of this month. I'll keep you posted on how that goes.


Have a Fabulous week, I think we only have 2 1/2 weeks to Thanksgiving!!!

Wow, you have been busy! The pictures are great. Thanks so much for coming to Ben's reception. I wish I would have seen Thomas and Avery dancing - so cute. I would love to get your recipe for the mummies. Love you!

What cute pictures. Avery and David´s costumes are fun, too bad you didn´t catch Alex and Eli too.

What´s in the mummies? They look good!
