October

I will admit right now that the summers here in Iowa are way too hot and humid for me. And unless we are sitting in a swimming pool, it is sometimes
hard to enjoy it.

But there is nothing like an Iowa October.
It is beautiful. The weather is perfect.The humidity is not bad.
And we love the pumpkin patches and apple orchards that come with this season.
We have loved everyday this month.

So here we go, a million pictures, but I had to update now since we are headed to the Apple Orchard again tomorrow!

Center Grove Apple Orchard

A huge jumping pillow!






The little school house that was so cute



This corn pit it definitely the favorite thing to do at the apple orchard and the pumpkin patch.



Don't ask, I have no idea what she is doing. All I know is this picture makes me laugh!

I should have explained better to the girls what a hay maze is. They were not expecting to get lost. Me and Ashley were talking and then the next thing I knew the girls were crying because they couldn't find the way out! I should have felt bad but me and Ash couldn't stop laughing! It was so funny!












The Pumpkin Patch

We spent another beautiful October day at our favorite pumpkin patch with
some of our other best friends.

Peyton, Cailyn, Kylie, Katelyn








Playing in the corn again. . .

And of course, the first of October brings Conference weekend.
Saturday night during the Priesthood session we got together with friends and
had a girls night (well girls and kids night) making caramel apples! Yum.
After the Sunday session we ventured out to this little pond close by
to feed these wild Geese.
We LOVE Sundays because we get Dad all day.











It was seriously a perfect day.
I love October!
