Apple Orchard Adventures

What a beautiful weekend to be outside!  Bryleigh and Christian stayed with Grandma and Grandpa overnight on Friday night while Mom went to school and Dad went to the Badger Game on Saturday.  They had lots of fun making caramel apples and playing in the leaves...

On Sunday, we went to Helene's Hilltop Orchard in Merrill.  We played, went on on a hayride, went on a cow train ride, went through the muddy corn maze, and picked (and ate) lots of apples!

It was such a fun filled day and I"m so glad I was able to spend it with family! Love days like this! 

Cranberry Marsh Field Trip

I was able to attend Bryleigh's first 4K Field Trip last Friday. It was a beautiful day to learn about cranberry harvest.  Bryeigh was able to see what her Daddy did for cranberry harvest for a few years!  Even though Bryan hasn't helped with harvest in a few years, she was still excited to learn! 

But I'm pretty sure that her favorite part was the bus ride!  She has another field trip to the Pumpkin Patch coming up next week. Daddy gets to go on that trip with her! 

Sneak Peak

I have been stalking our photographers Facebook page, Epiphany Photography,  hoping for a sneak peak of our family photos from last weekend!  This morning I noticed that she posted a few! Ahhhh, I'm so in love!  I'm so excited to see them all!  I'm so glad that we found, Jess, because she takes amazing photos!  Here is  sneak peak... even though it was cold, they turned out so cute!

Our week

We have all had such busy schedules these days. We are running 3 days a week between Cub Scouts, Gymnastics, and Dance.  I also have to find time in there to study and write my weekly papers.  There is not much time for blogging these days.  I'm falling far behind on sharing the fun pictures from activities that we have been able to squeeze into our schedule. 

This past Sunday, we had our Fall Family Pictures. We have never done fall pictures so I was excited for a few of our firsts...our first fall pictures and our first fun picture session versus just having posed pictures. Unfortunately it was very chilly.  But the kids did so well with a little bit of bribing! 

 We were outside for a little over an hour before we warmed up in the car on our drive to Appleton. The kids picked to go to Chucke Cheese's...

Yesterday, the guys had a man night with our friends while Bryleigh and I went to my sister' s house for a girls night with my nieces!  I just love them to pieces!

 We are hoping for great weekend weather so we can make it to the apple orchard on Sunday! But now we are off to the Cranberry Marsh for Bryleigh's 1st 4K field trip of the year!
