Fall Fun

The weather may not yet feel very fall-like to us, but the trees are changing color and there are lots of fall activities around for us to enjoy. Last Thursday we went to a farm with some of our friends from church. We got to see some animals, go on a hayride and enjoy the activities they had set up. A lot different than trips to the farm when I was a kid!

Sam and Ella in the "corn" box (instead of a sand box)
In the corn maze. We didn't last long, a couple of turns are we came back out. Apparently it can take adults 1.5 hours to get through!

Going for a hay ride. It was so hot that day. We were so glade to turn the corner and be in the shade.

Owen driving a tractor. This was Sam's favorite activity of the day as well!
Sam on the jumping pillow with his friend.

Sam about to go down the flying fox. I was so scared. It was quite long and I thought he'd fall, but he did great. Came off with a jolt at the end though. He was too short to reach the landing!

Last week we made cookies for Uncle Bry who is on his mission in Las Vegas. Sam loves making sugar cookies. We decorated these for fall / halloween.

On Saturday we went garage sale shopping. Here are Sam and Ella riding some of their new toys. We came back with so much it felt like Christmas and they have been busy playing with their new toys ever since.

A couple of other random pics from the past few days.....

Owen eating salsa. He gave up on the chips and went to spooning it in instead. He loves anything with a tomato base. We had pizza on the weekend, he loves it but always has to eat the topping first.
The kids playing outside today with water. Chris had ice on his car this morning, but today was bright warm and sunny again.
