Fall Fun!

We are officially into the fun of fall with cooler temperatures and fall-like weekend activities!  While summer will always be my favorite season, there is something about the fall that gets me excited to welcome a new time of year!  Last weekend we took the boys to a college football game at Aunt Lindsey and Uncle Boomer's college, Wake Forest.  The boys loved eating snacks and watching the Demon Deacons defeat the FSU Seminoles... this Gator fan wasn't too sad about that either! haha  Grammy came along with us while Grandpa was out of town for his annual golf trip.  While I referenced cooler temperatures, those didn't arrive until after this football game.... we were pretty hot as evidenced by the sweaty pictures!



The boys got haircuts... and I had to document the new obsession with throwing up the peace sign in our picture taking! haha

We celebrated Grandpa's birthday at Cracker Barrel.  We selected the restaurant since it would have been Great Grandma's 90th birthday and the two of them typically celebrated their birthdays together each year.  It was a fun evening together with the family and there was much to celebrate as time with family is always cherished.  Great Grandma was definitely missed and I think it made us appreciate the time together even more.
My parents went for a weekend trip to the mountains last weekend... aren't they cute?!  I think retirement looks good on them!  Although I will have to add that they help us a great deal with the kids so maybe they are partially retired! haha
The boys are loving soccer this season!  They tried a new sport and haven't looked back!  Both boys scored multiple goals this weekend and other parents have talked to me about how shocked they are that Zander and Maddox haven't played soccer prior to this season.  They definitely can hustle down the field and are involved in most plays!  Zander even tried goalie this past week and blocked quite a few balls from getting into the net!  They are both incredibly athletic and I love cheering them on from the sidelines!


Our annual Spring Folly was this past weekend... in the fall!  It gave us a taste of fair food, rides and enjoying the cooler temperatures as we walked around downtown!  Grannie and GranDan came to visit so they were able to enjoy the festival with us while also cheering on Maddox at his soccer game.  They plan to come back to see Z in action on the soccer field.
