Festivals, Fairs and Fall Fun!

I am a little behind on my blogging, so I am going to combine a few Fall entries into one! On top of being back to work fulltime and being sick 2 weekends in a row, this poor blog has been a bit neglected.  One of these days, I will figure out this whole fulltime working Mom thing and be back to my consistent blogging.  Until then, you may just have to settle for hogde-podge entries!

Back in September, my Dad and I took Mackenzie to our annual trip to the Shekinah Festival, in Plain City. She has gone 3 years in a row with my parents and their good friends, Bill and Sue, and grandson, Brayden.  She looks forward to it every year.  From horseback riding, arts and crafts, tractor rides, a petting zoo and homemade icecream, there is something for everyone.



















This past weekend, I stayed home miserable with congestion and a sore throat, Jeremy took the kids up to Loudonville for the Street Festival and cousin Ella's 9th bday!  The weather was perfect, and the kids had a fabulous time riding rides, eating fair food, having a family sleepover, and being together.  Caleb and Owen even got to ride a few rides for the first time. They were BIG fans of the fair, and can't wait until next year when they can do even more!













after a night of fun, it was off to Grandma and Grandpa's for a sleepover!

and scrambled eggs and sausage for breakfast....Grandma's the best!
...and then it was off to cousin Ella's birthday party.  9 years old...how is that possible?  I still remember Jeremy and I had just started dating when we got the call that Ella was born! 

Happy Bday, sweet Ella! 




 It's been a fabulous few weeks, full of fun family memories!  Next up, picking pumpkins and Halloween!  :)
I love Fall!

  1. I am behind in my blogging too. I finally decided to forget trying to go back and blog and just start with what we are doing now. It was too overwhelming :) It is hard to manage everything...work, kids, house, etc. Looks like y'all are having fun :)
