Little Pumpkins

We made a trip to the pumpkin patch this weekend! Lots of fun as usual. We got some great pumpkins, including an ugly warty one and a pretty white one for mommy. We got a giant one to carve up and two baby pumpkins for each little one. We dressed Reagan up in a ridiculous Halloween outfit with a little orange Tu-tu. She was super cute!




Our little farmers!

A Much Needed Escape

Last week we had our first family vacation. It was nothing fancy, just a few days away in a cabin in the beautiful north Georgia mountains. Usually when we get some time off work our "vacations" usually consist of us going to Florida to visit some family. While this is fun and it is so great to see everyone, we needed a getaway just for the four of us, and what could be more relaxing than staying at a homey little cabin?
This is the cabin and our view from the cabin out onto the lake. It was absolutely gorgeous. Unfortunately the leaves had not quite started changed colors yet, but the weather was nice and cool!

Here is daddy reminiscing about his boy scout days by making us some foil dinners....they were actually quite delicious.
We did not do anything too exciting while up in Ellijay. Mainly we just stayed at the cabin and enjoyed the fireplace, went fishing on the lake, cooked food, played pool, darts, and enjoyed the hot tub after the girls went to bed.

Sam was so excited to take Hannah fishing for the first time. These crazy fish for some reason were not interested at all in our little bread balls, but Sam did catch a few while we were napping one of the days.
Here is Sam teaching Hannah all about fishing.

Snuggling by the fire after a cold day outside!

One of the afternoons we ventured out exploring around our cabin. We found this nice little stream (which I think our dogs liked more than anything) and a little hiking trail.

Can't forget about the S'mores! An essential part of any campfire!
Hannah definitely approved of her first S'more tasting!
On our last day we went out apple picking! I have not done this since I was really little when we lived in New York, so I was excited about this. It is nearing the end of the apple season, so they were a little limited on varieties, but it was still fun. We all picked some, took some pictures, ate some apples along the way, enjoyed a little petting farm and ended the trip with fried apple pies....Yum!



Unfortunately, the trip ended with me getting some sort of stomach bug/food poisoning? (maybe that yummy fried apple pie didn't agree with me?) and we had to cut out early on the last day. We had a great time though! Can't wait for our next family vacation!
