Beautiful Fall Day Trip

Today seemed like a great day to take a trip to North Georgia.
We decided to go to Burt's Farm to check out their HUGE pumpkins.
After the pumpkins we went to Amicalola Falls.
It is literally right down the street from the farm, so it was a no brainer.
What a lovely fall day with the fam!
HUGE pumpkins!

Many varieties!

Juju not gonna do it!

Riding the tractor!

Lots of gourds, and squash.

Me and the kids at the falls.

Fall Family Fun Day

Today we went to David's parents' church for their fall festival.
We enjoyed games, and food.
The kids had a great time.
Surprisingly they did not take a nap after!
Best pic I could get of my dad with the kids.

What do you have, Juju?

Fun with Grandpa.

Matthew is a champ at the swing!

Juju is adorable!

North Georgia State Fair

Today we went out to the opening day at the North Georgia State Fair.
It was good for people watching, and turned out to be such a treat for the kids!
They wore me out, and I loved it!

Awesome rooster!

Cute Alpaca!

Funny geese!

Chasing geese!

Adorable baby goat!

Bunny thinking Matthew is a tunnel!

Ummm...no thanks!

Again...no thanks!

Unlimited ride stamp!

Under the table and dreaming.

Love this!


Mom! Stop taking pictures!

Tuquoise Chairs

Since I was a little girl, I have always rearranged things.
I would spend all night going through every nook and cranny to rid my space of items not needed.
It certainly would make me tired the next day, but I enjoyed the feeling of ridding my room of unnecessary clutter.
Today I found myself jonesing for a change.
My children's play table seemed to be the ticket.
I bought Krylon Blue Ocean Breeze spray paint.
I thought this would liven up the room.
So I sprayed the chairs, and voila color. So glad I did this.
I think I will try to find a stencil to paint a B on the top of the table in the same color paint.
Right now I am excited to add a pop of color.
I am sure I will find more things to paint tomorrow, but for tonight I am done. :)

Roswell Mill

We visited the old Roswell Mill today.
For someone who had lived in Roswell her whole life, this was the first time I had been.
A photo Matthew took of us.

Juju tolerating my picture taking.

Matthew insisted on helping!

Uh guys, no trespassing!

Looking at old machinery.

Rusted.

Waterfall

Exploring.

This is a bridge, right?

Cheese!


No, Matthew! Don't go in there!
David said that when I was child most people did not go to visit the Roswell Mill....so probably why I had never been. About 9 years ago they started to revitalize the area. It was so cool to see this history of Roswell. Like going back in time. Just weird how nature starts to take over once you stop using something!

The Halloween Store

Today we took a trip to the local Halloween store to get in the fall spirit.


That was awesome!

Look at those creepy kids.

Look what Daddy handed me.


Daddy is silly!
A trip to the Halloween store is so fun with kids. They get a kick out of everything!
Now I'm ready for the Fall weather to come on in!
