Leah in Real Life: Fall exists in Arkansas

First off, Thank you for all the congrats on FB and here for our little bundle of joy! We feel very blessed to have such love and support of so many great friends and family!

I didn't think that AR would be that much different than TX. I mean, we are neighbors and I can get

to Dallas in 5 hrs. However, FALL has been so pretty here. ( Maybe its bc I haven't been able to leave the house since July. But that's another blog.) The leaves have changed to such a pretty red and orange. It rains at least once a week. The weather is nice and crisp. Pumpkins grow on real vines here.

We had a great time picking pumpkins at the pumpkin patch. It was my first Friday Fun Day to actually get to go on. Friday is Michael's day off and each Friday we go and do something fun. Sometimes the boys plan it. Sometimes I plan it. All summer they went bowling for free. Check out kidsbowlfree.com to see if a bowling alley near you participates. We loved doing this in Abilene and were excited to find a Conway alley that participated. They have gone to chick fil a, target shopping trip complete with a new toy, the Jump Zone ( an indoor inflatable park), the movies, Little Rock, and this week we went to the Pumpkin Patch!

There were lots of playground structures to play on. They had pre-picked speciality pumpkins and gourds, and you could take a hay ride to The pumpkin patch to pick pumpkins off the vine.
We each picked our own pumpkin. Thanks to the last 9 years of teaching the pumpkin life cycle I was able to show it to the boys in real life. There were still vines with the blossoms and lots of green pumpkins.

It was such a fun day!
The boys even had an impromptu camping trip with friends that night!

Fall is here. I'm enjoying the harvest!
