Powell's Pumpkin Patch and Cider Mill

This year Gavin and I went with our friends Jennifer and Isaac to a "real" pumpkin patch and cider mill just south of town. Naturally, Gavin enjoyed running all around in the pumpkin patch and mom enjoyed the cider donuts! Ok, Gavin liked them too.

Fall Festival 2014

We took Gavin to the fall festival this year when my mom came to visit. He got to do just about everything a hayride, a corn maze, pick out a pumpkin, trunk or treat, and of course eat lots of candy! That same weekend we also had a "spook" party with my mom and some friends in celebration of the premier of "Walking Dead". Gavin enjoyed helping me make all the treats; along with painting pumpkins and decorating coffins with Gigi.

I Love Fall

Fall is by far my favorite season! I love the changing of the leaves, Starbucks' pumpkin spice latte, warm apple cider, and the smell of fall. Gavin and I had fun this year setting out some fall decorations. He really enjoyed helping me make a "mummy" candle for our table.  I also made some little theme tags to hang around the house. Helps get us in the spirt!

A trip to the "Farm"

A few weekends ago we headed up to Nebraska to visit my dad and Kim. Courtney got a new bow for christmas last year and has been wanting to try it out. So, he thought it might be nice to try a little hunting that weekend. It ended up being kinda warm to sit out in the deer stand for to long (to many mosquitos), but he got in some good target practice.

We had a great relaxing weekend enjoying gator rides, tractor rides, Gunner time and of course just enjoying the beautiful view from the deck.

Gavin found a new best friend that weekend.....Grandpa D!

Here are some pictures of Gavin walking through a corn maze last year.....what a difference a year makes.
