Orchard & Pumpkin Patch 2013

Last week we made our first trip to the Orchard & Pumpkin Patch of the season. We also made our second trip with my sister and mom as well over the weekend. I have plans to try and make one more visit before Halloween but we will see how the weather is. Fall is one of my favorite times of the year. I love the colors of the leaves as they change, the crunch of those leaves as you walk through them and the crisp fall fresh air. I love layers and of course boots.
Hitting up the Pumpkin Patch just makes the season even better and allows for some great photo opportunities. I took advantage of the beautiful colors and trees and pumpkins and captured some great memories. Brayden is not the easiest kid to photograph because he is super active and does not like to sit still for his crazy camera mommy to take the perfect picture. Candid photos work best for us and I am completely fine with that. I actually prefer them.

The first visit we made I was so excited I just grabbed my phone and started snapping pictures. I forgot I brought my big girl camera along so I made sure to put it to work on our second visit.

 They had a blast! Love listening to them laugh together.
 



Happy October {Fall Printable}

Happy 1st day of October to everyone.
 I have been feeling a little bummed about how fall is starting out around here. Things of course are looking like "fall" but the 80 degree weather is not helping it feel like fall at all. I am still wearing shorts and flip flops. I want jeans, boots, and layers. We are also dying to get to the Orchard & Pumpkin Patch but we were hoping it would "feel" a little more like fall before we go. The Midwest is tricky when it comes to the weather.

I searched Pinterest for the perfect fall printable but I just could not find one that really said what I felt when I thought of Fall. So, I decided I would just put one together on my own. It's simple & that's the way I like it. I LOVE printables, I mean really love them. I have several printed that I have pinned for different holidays and I LOVE them. I hope to make more in the future and offer them here to anyone.

So, I decided that I would share my printable here for anyone that might like it. All you have to do is save it and get it printed out.
(Right-click to save or open it full size) Its that easy.

Enjoy!

I sent this to Walgreens to be printed and it printed beautifully. I do recommend printing in an 8x10.

 

Please give credit where it is due and link back to my blog if you share this printable. Thank you:)
