We got the chance to celebrate Mema's Birthday with her and Grandpa Jack this year. It was so nice to have my parents over and for the kids to sing Happy Birthday. We love you both so much and are so glad we can spend these wonderful times together!
We went down to Riverbend Farm to take the kids to the pumpkin patch for the first time. They all had a great time! There were playgrounds and tractors, and farm animals...I was surprised at how much there was to do. We all came home exausted, but it was well worth it. Rebecca was not on top form, but once we stopped at the country store and grabbed some snacks she was her happy self again! It was an amazing day outside, the are was so cool and crisp. We are glad we can take the kids to see these fun places on occasion,and they get to see the seasons change!
Today I went with Rory and Rebecca to Mema's house to get things ready. The kids are all looking forward to the visit! As usual that also meant trekking through the woods. I love that they enjoy it and the 2 of them get along so well nowadays! We looked around at the different kinds of trees, and mushrooms,and the kids made jokes to each other. They both find booger talk the most hilarious thing!(Grooss,right?) I don't really mind,so long as they are getting along and having fun. The weather has been in the 40's-50's in the mornings,it is beautiful! It was a nice way to spend our morning.
Rory has finally learned to ride a bike! He has been way to scared to try. For years we have asked him to give it a shot, but he would not budge! Now Rory is hooked! He loves the feeling of going fast and we are so proud of him for trying it out! On another note, I have a touch of a cold. I feel yucky! So with that I am going to grab some medicine and go for a nap. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
