It's Pumpkin Time!

Last weekend we took Blakely and Penelope to the pumpkin patch at Carrigan Farms in Mooresville, NC. We couldn't believe it, but it was 89 degrees!!! We had a great time despite the heat and got a few pictures!! We picked some pumpkins and went on a hay ride. Carrigan farms is a great place to go if you're looking for fresh fall items- corn stalks, pumpkins, apple cider, apples, etc. We loved the time spent together!  Here are a few pictures from the patch!

The next day, we went for a girls outing to Boone. This was Blakely's half birthday! (October 6th) We went to Julian Price Park and Bass Lake and hopped a few fences (with the government being shutdown the parks aren't open) to take some fall pictures of the girls. We went for a stroll around Bass Lake and then of course Aunt Jordan and me had to run into the outlets and to get some Kilwins. Penelope even had her first little taste of ice cream!!
Here a few pictures:

We could just kiss those little cheeks off! We love this girl absolutely to the moon and around the sun and back! 

Peace and Love,
