Malcolm Family News: Loving fall!

I don't remember loving fall so much ever before. We have been able to go on walks and play outside and at the park almost everyday in October. I remember last year being home on my first couple of weeks of maternity leave watching it rain and even snow one day!

We had a great weekend enjoying the fall weather. Ava went to a birthday party for Hallie Brown with Tyson and Rachel on Saturday. She was also turning one. She even sent home a nice thank you gift with Ava for coming to the party. Ava loves her new crayons and the snack, thanks Hallie!

Sunday we went to church in the morning. We met my parents and Tyson & Rachel at Peppers for a late lunch to celebrate Rachel's big 24th birthday! After wards, we took Ava to the pumpkin patch at Heartland Farms. While we were there we watched the "Punkinator" shoot pumpkins out of a large canon at an old van. We also went through a haunted house (daylight, so not as scary for some but Rachel and I were pretty scared), went through a corn maze, saw some baby chicks and a rooster (Ava thought the rooster was hilarious!) We also went on a hay ride. On the way home we stopped for some ice cream.

Darren had a couple things he wanted to work on around the house so Ava and I went for a walk after we got home. It was the perfect Sunday. Can everyday be Sunday?
