Harvest Festival



This past Saturday we had a Harvest Festival at our house. Around 25 kids came--plus their parents-- but it was loads of fun. There was apple bobbing, butternut squash bowling, donut eating from strings, a homemade bean bag toss-compliments of my dear husband, sugar cookie decorating, plus great food and yummy fall drinks--wassel and even orange hot chocolate!



Our kids had a blast--well Abigail and Collette. Ben slept through most of it. He is starting to get a bit overwhelmed when there are a lot of people around--so it was for his benefit.







This is my favorite time of year and I loved having this at our home. I got to decorate the house-picture coming later--and go above and beyond my average stress level to really feel the spirit of fall here. And thanks to Joel for dealing with all of my demands for him the last two weekends. He can now resume his normal husband duties on the weekends!



Enjoy the pictures and I will try to keep this post going. I will hopefully make it a hobby.
