In the fall...
Fall is one of my favorite seasons. The changing of colors. The incredible smell of autumn. The crisp fresh air. The hint of winter. All of it wrapped up in a warm blanket and a crackling fire.
This fall brought us....
soccer practice and soccer games!!
Jackson had a blast playing on his soccer team.
He was content to play any position...kicking or blocking...shooter or goalie.
But his favorite part of the entire season was...Daddy taking him to Dunkin on practice nights!!
This fall also brought us...
a special friend that said,
"Hey...wanna go to the state capital
and visit the free museums with me and the kiddos?
And by the way, we can stay up there for free because of my gazillion hotel points?"
So that is exactly what we did...
and then on a whim we headed over to the state fair...
and "free" being the theme of the weekend...
got into the fair for FREE to enjoy the sights and smells and thrill of it all!!
We let the kids pick out ONE ride to go one (which was not very nice...but easy on our wallets!)
The girls picked the Ferris Wheel...
and the boys picked bumper cars!
And we tried as much fair food as we could stomach...
watched a BMX show...
played a few games...won a few prizes...
and called it a night!
It was a FUN trip!!
The fall also brought us...
The Response.
The Response was a six hour prayer gathering that drew thousands from different churches.
Jason helped with the preparation leading up to the event...and was blessed by the different relationships formed through it.
It was an incredible experience to pray with many different brothers and sisters in Christ.
The fall also brought us...
a girls day out!!!
Some sweet friends gave us some tickets to the Lollipops symphony...
Before the show, the girls got to try their musical skills on different instruments...
testing all four of the orchestra families...
Then they made a craft...ate a snack...and settled in for a beautiful, fun show!
Listening gave us all quite the appetite...so we decided to finish off our girls day out with some lunch at La Unica!
The fall also brought us...
LOTS of time outside to play...explore...do school...spend time with friends...and just enjoy all of God's amazing creation!!!
