We headed to the pumpkin patch on a windy, chilly day. But we were getting pumpkins, having fun, and doing it all with cousins…so we still had a fantastic time! Clearly Grammy was enjoying herself.

First Days 2018
And just like that, we’re back at it. I now have a 5th grader, a 3rd grader, and a Pre-Ker. Everyone was actually excited to go back to school. They were ready to be with their friends again, and anxious to use their new school supplies (like the light up disco ball Max somehow convinced me to Read More
