Fall weekend at Granny and Gramps
Well, we spent last weekend at my Mom and Dad's in Michigan. T, the boys and I look forward to this every fall. It is a time for our whole family to get together one last time before my parents head south for the winter and to celebrate J2's and T's birthdays. We went to an amish pumpkin patch and picked out a couple pumpkins. The only difference between an amish pumpkin patch and a regular patch, is you have to drive through cow manure to get back to an amish pumpkin patch. As always, my Mom's cooking is fantastic, and we talk about her pies for the whole year until we go back again. C1 practiced his golf with Gramps, and had a silly string fight with his Aunt J2. One tradition is to let the boys play in the leaves. Gramps gets out the leaf blower and blows the leaves into a big pile. C1 had a blast. I think it gives us adults an excuse to romp around too. We all had so much fun! Thanks Mom and Dad.
