Our first date...

was 12 years ago at Auburn's Homecoming. So, this past weekend we packed up the kids and the car, dropped the kids off with their grandparents and headed to Auburn! This is a special weekend we look forward to every year.
It was the coldest homecoming I remember!

Afterwards we went to Toomer's Corner!

Pumpkin Pickin!

Nanny and Pawpaw came to town on Saturday and we took the kids to the pumpkin patch! The girls had a great time playing, petting the farm animals, and picking their pumpkins.


We started taking Emma to the pumpkin patch when she was just a baby. I can't believe she's already six and looking so grown up!

Lili found a special pumpkin just for her :)

This was probably Emm's favorite part of the day, getting to hold the kittens. I think one actually fell asleep in her hands.


Lili loved feeding the goats!





Fall Fest Night!

Getting ready to go to our church's Fall Festival!
Lili ~ the scarecrow, Maddie ~ the AU cheerleader, Emma ~ the cheetah

Emma was a scarecrow when she was Lili's age too. I had a great time making her outfit.


Lili and Mrs. Kathy, a couple of scarecrows!

Mike wore the hat most of the night, got a few interesting looks from people :)

Emma loves the cotton candy!

More fall fun!

I was so excited to get these pictures today from Michael's aunt! She captured some really great moments at our Fall Family Day!

This reminds me of when I was a kid! One of my favorite things to do was to climb the magnolia trees in both of my grandmothers' yards.



A pic of me taking a pic of the girls :)


Here we go!





Lili had so much fun on the hayride!

As you can tell......

Straw was everywhere (yes, I do mean everywhere ;) )

Fall Day with Family!

Yesteday, we enjoyed a fun day with family! The kids all got to enjoy a hay ride, games, and delicous food. And the swing was also a big hit!




The girls played until they were absolutely exhausted!


Boy, do I know these looks too well!

Lili took a few swings at the pinata!

A Fun Day!

Today we went to Joe Davis Stadium, home of the Huntsville Stars, to take part in the Buddy Walk! The girls enjoyed playing games and winning prizes, a puppet show and playing with their friends.




Lili did a great job sitting still to get her face painted but couldn't resist touching it afterwards :)

My growing girls

We took the girls to the Botanical Gardens this weekend to see the Scarecrow Trail. Haven't had the chance to get any good pics of them lately so I was so happy with how these turned out. Look how my girls are growing!





We love Fall and yummy smores!
