Hello all,
Happy Fall to each of you once again! The leaves are really changing here lately and can I just say that I LOVE Fall! Except for the time change situation; anyone who has babies or kids knows that they do not observe the whole time change concept therefore getting up an hour earlier than usual and being hungry an hour earlier as well. This I have found does not iron itself out for a few days... but they are still FUN days together :). Min and I too have really felt the day light savings this year; we are both ready for bed at 9pm! Maybe we are just getting old; who knows :)
We are enjoying the Fall days together and the nice chilly weather too; I cannot speak for Min as he is out in the elements daily but for Ayden and I it is really nice to be all cozy warm in the house when it's cold outside. We were able to take Ayden to the Pumpkin patch for his first time last Sunday. We left our house as the sun was going down and got there in enough time to pick our pumpkins, take bunches of pictures and have lots of fun before it got dark. Ayden loved the pumpkins and most of all he LOVED riding in a wagon; that is what we used to pick and pull our pumpkins around. We were just happy to have family time together and laugh in the beauty that God has created!
We carved our pumpkins mid week and Min and I did ours one night and then the next day we did Ayden's little one. We introduced him to pumpkin guts and he was not very fond of them at all. So we didn't force him to do anymore with the pumpkin, except look at the cool pictures once they were all carved! He liked that part :)
We took Ayden to our church's annual Fall Festival on Oct.31st and it was a great night! He really enjoyed just being around people and having the freedom to walk anywhere and everywhere. Our son loves to walk around! We are blessed with a wonderful church family that puts on events like this a couple times every year to encourage family time together!
We are planning a small trip to the mountains this weekend to see the beautiful wonder of the Lord in the Fall colors. We are traveling to Virginia and we are very excited about the beauty that awaits us. I also am very excited to take some great pictures of our little boy in the leaves!! Pictures to come! For now enjoy everyday and may we each be blessed right where the Lord has us!!
Love from our family to yours!
