Fall is such a nice time of year. After three months of unbearable heat (well...only if you live in Savannah is it truely unbearable) it is nice to feel the weather cool off. As well, it seems, like spring, to be such a fragile season. All the leaves turn vibrant colors but you know that their beauty will only last a few short weeks. It makes you enjoy it all that much more knowing how short it is.
Annie and her family came down from Utah for a visit during their fall break. It was nice to see them again. The kids enjoy spending time with their cousisns. (Hint my family - Topher and Maddie have no cousisns...don't you think that is sad :)
We went to Sutherland Farms to enjoy the warm fall afternoon and enjoy a few activites. The kids went through the corn maze - Maddie kept trying to wander down the rows of corn rather than say on the path. All the grandkids (including those who are almost ready to drive and date) enjoyed the corn slides. Maddie enjoyed looking at the animals (goats, chickens, rabbits...) though the smell did get to her mom. The boys went on a tractor barrel ride (I am not sure they enjoyed it as much jerking around as there was.) And, we picked out a pumpkin to carve for Halloween. Topher had a hard time deciding between the classic orange pumpkin or the white "ghost" pumpkins. Maddie just enjoyed sitting on them.
