Pumpkining at Rasmussen Farms

^^ You can watch a little video and listen to their laughter here! ^^

^^ Brooks took this picture of Ava and me. :) Thanks sweet boy! ^^

Last year we missed going to Rasmussen Farms to pick out pumpkins with the Kjar cousins, and it was so fun to go back! It's hard to beat the nostalgia of picking the perfect pumpkin, watching the kids have a blast pulling around and riding in vintage Radio Flyer wagons, eating apples right off the tree, and soaking up fall weather. It started off a little rocky (two little people fell asleep on the way, and woke up and little unsure;) but it didn't take long for them to realize they were in Autumn heaven. We left with some great pumpkins and sweet memories. :)

Picnic on the hardwood floor.

It was rather rainy out today, so to brighten it up we had a little picnic inside. Nutella sandwiches, raspberries, apple slices + almond butter...with my two favorite littles. It was a lovely afternoon indeed!

Guest Post: Infinity Scarf to Turban

The ever-gorgeous Gentri let me take up some space on her blog today! I love head wraps and turbans, and fall time is perfect for them. I was playing around with a light-weight, infinity scarf (I scored at Walmart!) and realized it can easily be turned into a turban! Multi-faceted accessory for the win! And I call it the infiniturban. Haha, I think I'm witty. ;) Check out the simple how-to over on Gentri Lee HERE.

Date Night Smorgasbord

^^ That's not us, but we went next! The Skycoaster was such a thrill! ^^

Over the last few months Adam and I have gone on more dates than the whole year previous. To say we've loved it is an understatement. "Just us" time gives our relationship such a boost! Here's a smorgasbord of pictures from some of our favorites -- going to Lagoon, enjoying our fave Indian restaurant, Starbucks, massages, and going for a drive up the mountains east of our home to enjoy the sunset.

So lucky that Adam is mine. And I'm beyond grateful for outings like these that put butterflies in my stomach and remind me of our courting days when I fell head over heels in love with him.
