Yesterday was a really good day. Did I clean the house? Nope. Did I get much work done? Nope. But I had fun. Carson was itching to get out of the house yesterday morning and said he wanted to "be in nature", so we headed up the road to Helotes, where we found some walking trails and went to check out the Nature Center (which was closed). We explored and had ever so much fun making discoveries and trying to solve small mysteries ("Where do you think these tire tracks came from?!") Carson was in heaven. Walking behind the Nature Center, we discovered a rope swing that was good for half an hours worth of entertainment. Made me wish we had a tree in the back yard to hang one from.
On our way home, we saw a pumpkin patch at Helotes UMC, and decided we'd go pick out a few pumpkins to decorate after Abby got done with school. It never ceases to amaze me how much fun kids have at a pumpkin patch.
Last night, we hung around the house, had risotto (a family favorite) for dinner, and then we all decorated our pumpkins together. Even the grown-ups had fun!
Here's the final result. I love how everyone's pumpkins came out totally differently :)
Happy Fall, everyone!
