Asheville in the Fall

Best time of year to go to Asheville. It is gorgeous with its changing colors and its breezy fall weather.  The leaves were gorgeous yellows, oranges and tinges of red. There were maybe two clouds in the sky the whole time... My favorite city.


We celebrated my birthday and despite our all ill feeling with colds, it was a good time. The girls were troopers in the car.

Ari kept asking where we were going and we told her Asheville. She thought for a second and said "and then Ari-ville?"  That thought process amazed us and made us laugh.  We ate at Tupelo Honey Cafe and it was still an hour and half wait when we left. That place is so dang delicious.

Pumpkin Patch

 Yep, its October... that means the 'thing' to do is go to the local pumpkin patch up the road. THis year, Dan went with us and we made it a full family day that ended with a picnic and cookies!

 This is a 'pick your own' patch with many fields of pumpkins.  The girls were eager and had a fun time running the aisles of the field.  They each picked a few and they're displayed on our porch until we carve them.


Our attempt at a family photo: a tad sunny and the girls not looking at the stranger... eh... whatever.

Dan took the girls to the 'hay maze' and they all three loved it. They climbed on top of the hay bales and jumped.  This was one of our favorite parts.
 Happy Fall Ya'll!!
