Cornbelly's

 

We had so much fun taking the kids to Cornbelly's with their cousins.  I love going to pumpkin patches.  They are seriously so much fun.  

The slides are always a highlight.  There are so many different slides, and they love them all!  Their huge smiles as they go down just melt my heart.

The cow train was my favorite.  I honestly couldn't tell you why but it was really fun ha ha

The boys also loved doing the apple blasters.  These were one of Will's favorites from last year, and this year Ben was big enough to do it.  Nothing so fun as getting to shoot something and watch is explode for a little boy!

One of the most special parts of the evening was going on the carnival rides with Will.  His smile was so big and he kept yelling "This is so fun!"  That is what it is all about!

Time with cousins is always the best, and time together, well that is just perfection!

Cabin with the Cousins

 

We went with Dave's twin brother and his family up to my sister in law's family cabin.  It was so much fun and we can't wait to go again!  We are so lucky to have kids the same age.  They have so much fun together.  And then when the kids go to bed we just chat and laugh all night.  I'm so grateful we have such a close relationship with them.

Will loves any time he gets to play with Clara.  His favorite part of the cabin was the swing behind the house and he loved roasting marshmallows and have smores our first night there.

Ben and Trevor had fun chilling together too!  It's so fun to watch their little relationship blossom as they get older.  They were having so much fun running around in the loft together, and their is nothing better than cuddling up to watch a movie.

Our second day there we went to the reservoir.  Both Will and Ben loved looking for treasures on the beach and throwing rocks into the water.  I'm pretty sure this was Ben's favorite part of the whole trip.

We went on an outdoor scavenger hunt with the kiddos.  They were looking for everything from sticks to feathers and I think they found them all!  Nothing better than playing in the dirt for two little boys.

Our last day there we got to see the first snowfall for the season.  The kids couldn't wait to get out into it, even though it was just a skiff.

After playing in the snow it was time to warm up with hot chocolate and then head home.  I love making memories with my boys and can't wait to make so many more.

Picking Pumpkins

 

We took the boys to a local farmers market to pick out their pumpkins.  It was so exciting for them and so fun for us.  They were so proud of their choices and can't wait to carve them for Halloween.

They both wanted to help Dad pull the cart.  It was so cute.  These little memories mean just as much to me as the big ones.  And I just love our holiday traditions!
