Cates Farm

We went to visit the Congletons and during our visit, we went to Cates Farm to pick pumpkins and enjoy some fall fun. It was a much smaller farm that we were used to, but it was perfect for us! There was lots do and it was not crowded. The kids could go from one activity to the next and I was never worried about them getting lost. They had a huge bounce pad, games, a corn playground, a hay playground, a toy tractor race track, a huge slide, and a barrel train. It was a really nice day and we enjoyed time with our good friends. Plus, we all got some great pumpkins!














Preston's Kindergarten Field Trip to Gallrein Farm

Preston's kindergarten class had their first field trip! We went to Gallrein Farm, where we saw the animals, enjoyed a hayride, picked pumpkins, had fun in a corn maze, and played on the hay playground. Preston had a great time with his friends and he got to ride a school bus for the very first time! It was a great trip and we both had a great time!

Preston liked riding the school bus!


We had fun on the hayride to the pumpkin patch.


Preston picked a great pumpkin to make a jack-o-lantern!


Preston and  Quinn are good buddies!

Fall Break

We had a really great time on our fall break. The boys had 5 days off of school and we fit lots of fun into those five days! The boys had fun at House of Boom, went fishing, played in the big kiddie pool, did water rockets with friends and spent some time with Bonnie Mom. Carl and I enjoyed some time together on a date night and at the art fair.

On Sunday, we went to Great Wolf Lodge, which is quickly becoming a family favorite. We all had fun at the water park and Evan and Preston had a great time playing the Magic Quest games. On our way back home, we stopped at the Newport Aquarium. It was not crowded at all, which made for a really enjoyable experience.

When we got back, the boys enjoyed lunch with Grammy and Granddaddy and a movie night!

The boys caught a lot of fish!


Carl and I enjoyed our time together. We love the boys, but it also nice to have some time to ourselves.



Great Wolf Lodge was lots of fun! The boys are already talking about going back again!





We all enjoyed Newport Aquarium.






Kentucky Kingdom

We were looking for something fun to do on a weekend in September and found Kentucky Kingdom passes! It was late in the season, but we bought them for next summer and were able to go in September for free! We were even able to bring friends!

We went the first time as a family of four and we had a blast! We rode some many rides, as well as enjoyed an ice cream treat on the way home.

One our second adventure to Kentucky Kingdom, we invited Aunt Rachel, Uncle Teddy, Caroline and Alex to join us! We all had a great time and we even got to enjoy the water park!

Next summer will be so much fun at Kentucky Kingdom! We can't wait!
