Funny...It doesn't feel like fall

It might not feel like fall as the temperature soared into the 70's today. But there was no denying it this afternoon as we spent time with friends at Ard's Farm Market. Ard's is one of our favorite fall hangouts and fall is definitely our favorite time of year. Today was a special day at Ard's as we helped celebrate Connor's birthday party. Connor and McKenna have been friends since they were just a few weeks old. It's hard to believe that they are turning 5! It seems like just last year when my friends and I took the kids to the pumpkin patch for the first time. McKenna was only 9 months old. I have such great memories of taking the kids there each year. Cooper was able to enjoy himself a little more this year and I'm looking forward to taking them for years to come.




We spent a lot of time visiting the goats, the pig, and everyone's favorite...the bunnies. Cooper was amazed by the goats and even tried to climb the fence to join them in a game of soccer. The kids also had a great time playing in the corn bin and racing rubber ducks. We picked up a few pumpkins on our way out for carving sometime next week.

Tomorrow I'm heading to Philadelphia for a conference with a group of nurses from the hospital. I hate to leave, but it's only for one day so I guess I'll survive. I know that Earl and my mom will take good care of them. It's just that I like to be the one taking care of them!

I hope you enjoy the pictures. Happy Fall!

Hi Em!
Isn't this blogging stuff the best? Our backgrounds are changing and we're adding such fun things...I just love it!

I wanted to thank you for the great ideas for songs on playlist! The Martina and Tim songs are so great - and I had forgotten just how great they were until I heard them on your site! I hope you don't mind that I borrowed your ideas!

McKenna and Cooper could NOT be cuter! I love reading all of your stories!

Happy Fall!
