Picking Pumpkins

Every year we head up to the "pumpkin church"to get our pumpkins.  This year we got to bring Grandma Cindy and Grandpa Mike.  This may have been the most fun the boys have had, it's certainly some of the best pictures we've ever gotten!


 This is also our most expensive pumpkin year, hmmm

Kindergarten Field Trip

Andrew's class took their first field trip to a pumpkin farm about an hour outside of Atlanta.  Andrew's teacher and one of his classmates rode with us, and we learned that Ms. Stacey is also from Northville, MI, holy small world!

 The highlight of the day - the Jumpy Pillow

 and of course, the pipe slide
Good memories for a good day!

Parktoberfest

We've had quite a few crazy weekends, and we finally had a fairly quiet one, so we decided to hit up a local fall festival.  Paid admission got the adults unlimited beer, and it got the kids unlimited games.  Everybody wins!!

Greek Festival 2013

We made our annual trek to the Greek Festival with the Brautigan Family!  The grown-ups have gyros and baklava sundaes, the kids go on questionable carney rides!

 I want to throw up watching them, and I'm seriously waiting for one of my children to do the same
Sadly we could not find the cardboard cutouts to have Brian and Dave stick their heads in for our annual fat lady photo.  Oh well, there's always next year!!
