Fall fun!

We just wrapped up a week without Daddy & Bailey around. (They took a hunting trip to North Dakota to do some bird hunting.) We filled out schedule to stay as busy as possible to make the time fly by & it did!

Last Friday I got a little adult-only break & was able to enjoy a concert with a great bunch of friends. Wyatt & Colton had a sleep over at Grandpa & Grandma’s while I was away, which included Grandma coming in & reading a couple books (Llama Llama Bully Goat & Steam Train, Dream Train) to their class and taking them home. Sunday also included making/canning applesauce in the afternoon, mostly during naps, but both Wyatt & Colton helped out after they woke up. We filled up the rest of our week nights with parent/teacher conferences, pizza night & a trip to the library. 

We wrapped up our time alone with a trip to a local produce farm that has some fun fall activates for the kids. We met our good friends, the “B” family, there too. It’s free & the boys really enjoyed it last year. It’s much busier on the weekends but going during the week, we practically had the place to ourselves. They have a huge play set, corn box, petting zoo & fall-themed games. They usually have a small hay-bale maze but with the last weeks’ rain, they were clearing it all up because it was basically a muddy, soggy mess.

When we got home, I asked the boys their favorite part of the night – Wyatt said feeding the baby goats & the water pump game. Colton said everything.

We made it through the week & are very happy to have Daddy & Bailey arrive home late last night safely.

Fun!

Feeding the baby goats.

"P" feeding the goats too!

Wyatt only wanted to feed the "little" ones.

Some of the goats were getting full at this point.

3 cuties!

The water pump game - favorite of the night, I think!!

Hard work Wyatt.

Poor Colton - this little black duck just didn't want
to move much & tried his hardest to pump the
water fast enough.

It's a race!

Water fun on a chilly day.

Play sets are always a hit!

Wyatt up for a ride.

Colton too.

Too cute!
