A Wonderful Sunday Afternoon

Today was a gorgeous day here! It was about 90 and sunny and so after a great morning at church our family headed to the Arboretum. This is an absolutely beautiful place. They had the fall florals and pumpkins out again...just like the first time I was ever there. I remember last year at this time being amazed that I could take the kids to the "pumpkin patch" in shorts and T-shirts. Being from North and South Dakota that is a special treat!

We had a picnic for lunch and played football, chased 2 pretty girls, enjoyed the beautiful flowers and played in the hay and pumpkins. It was a wonderful way to spend the afternoon. The Arboretum is definitely one of our favorite places to go. Here are some of the pictures I took while we were there...














I am so thankful for my family. I have been blessed with a wonderful man and 4 wonderful kids. Thank you all for a fun afternoon together! I love you SO much!!

What FUN pictures!! It does seem so crazy to have 90 degree weather at a pumpkin patch in the fall! But, you know me...I would take it!! :-)

Little Abby is just growing up so much...she is SWEET!! All of the kiddos are just beautiful, Jaci!

We miss you guys very much...I always have such fond memories of playing in the leaves and hanging out with you all in the fall!

Sending hugs!

How fun! Beautiful pictures! They look strangely familiar. We used to do the same thing and loved it so much. It is freezing here and will get colder. We miss you guys and wish we could have enjoyed the day together, but I am so glad that you had a wonderful afternoon. We spent a lot of time at the Arboretum and loved every minute of it. One question: Did you let your children get wet in the froggie fountain?

Hey Jaci, I love your blog and it's fun to see pics of your kiddos. I'm thinking I need to get out to the Arboretum while we're enjoying this great weather!

Sharon!

Usually when we go to the Arboretum, we end our time at the froggie fountains...but this time we didn't. And you know the ironic thing is...it was the FIRST time I remembered to bring a towel along!=)

We have some great video and pictures from the fun times we ALL have had in the fountains...;-)
