Fall Time

The kids up in Oak Glen, at the pumpkin patch (notice Luke pouting).
The Boys
The Girls
We had such a fun day on Monday. We drove up to Oak Glen which is a quaint mountain town about 10 min. away from our house. I love it because it has the seasons! The leaves change and it even gets snow in the winter, which is so crazy because we don't get snow and we live so close (once in a blue moon if we get a snowflake fall, it is instantly breaking news). So we took the day and went to pick apples, see pumpkins, and enjoy the nature we have in our own backyard. To top it off we went out to lunch and got a yummy carmel apple! Just spending the day as a family was such a great memory.

Fun! We need to go soon before all of the good pumpkins are gone. We went too late in the month last year. Kamryn (sp) is getting so big!

Looks like so much fun. I love fall, my favorite time of the year and never long enough here in Utah. By the way Gracy came up to the computer while I was looking at your entry and she saw the girl picture and said "Araceli." I keep telling her your name but it's not sticking.

Your pumpkin patch visit was much better then ours. Good to see your family and catch up. Also good to know someone who sells modbe. I bought a swimsuit last summer and love it! I had to search all over to find a rep to sell me one.

Mer,
Love the pictures of the kids and the pumpkins. So nice that you get seasons, ours went from summer to winter in about 2 weeks.
